Problems solved by technology

[0005] (2) Nearly 50% of waste heat is generated when the fuel cell is working. If it is not removed in time, the internal temperature of the fuel cell will be too high (over 90°C), which will dehydrate the proton exchange membrane, reduce the conductivity, and deteriorate the battery performance; if the temperature is too high Whe

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electric vehicles, in particular to a fuel cell thermal management system and method for vehicles. Background technique [0002] Fuel cell bus is a new technology bus using hydrogen as energy. It has been widely valued by the world due to its advantages of energy saving, zero emission, no pollution, high efficiency, low noise and high reliability. The typical operating temperature range of the fuel cell, the power source, is 60°C to 80°C. If the temperature is too high or too low, the fuel cell will fail. Therefore, thermal management has become a bottleneck restricting the development of fuel cells. [0003] Thermal management plays a vital role in the stable operation and service life of fuel cells: [0004] (1) The fuel cell itself needs to reach a certain temperature before it can start normally, so when the external ambient temperature is too low, the coolant of the fuel cell needs to be heated to ...
