Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel cell power generation system using liquid oxygen as an oxidant, in particular to a proton exchange membrane fuel cell power generation system using liquid oxygen as an oxidant in a closed system. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is different from a battery in the traditional sense. It is a high-efficiency power generation device that converts chemical energy stored in fuel and oxidant into electrical energy electrochemically. It is also different from the traditional internal combustion engine. Although it needs fuel and oxidant like the internal combustion engine, it does not need to be burned, and can complete the chemical reaction at low temperature to realize the power generation function. There are many types of fuel cells, which can be divided into alkaline fuel cells, proton exchange membrane fuel cells, phosphoric acid fuel cells, molten carbonate fuel cells, and solid oxide fuel cells according to diffe...
