Embodiment Construction

[0058] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0059] The so-called soft sensor is based on the scientific principles of physics, chemistry, etc., to carry out mathematical simulation and establish a mathematical model for calculating one or more physical data in the system for a certain physical system, which can be combined with the industrial control platform to measure physical data. In order to fully study the change of humidity inside the fuel cell, the mechanism analysis and modeling of the water content on the cathode side, the mass fraction of oxygen at the outlet of the cathode side, and the mass of liquid water on the cathode side were carried out, so as to accurately and timely calculate the water content on the cathode side. On-line control of the humidity inside the fuel cell provides the means.

Abstract

The invention discloses a soft measuring method for the water content on the cathode side of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. The method comprises the following steps of: collecting measurable parameters of an inlet and an outlet of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell in real time, wherein the measurable parameters comprise the temperature, the relative humidity and the pressure at the inletof the fuel cell, the temperature and the pressure of the outlet of the cathode and the reaction temperature in the fuel cell; and achieving soft measurement of the water content on the cathode sidebased on a water transport mechanism model in the fuel cell in the modeling software. The soft measurement method can accurately and timely calculate the water vapor mass on the cathode side and combines with the saturated vapor content of the current fuel cell at the reaction temperature so as to reflect the good and bad running states in the fuel cell, determine whether ponding is generated in the fuel cell and make the humidity closed-loop control in the fuel cell possible.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a soft measurement method for water content at the cathode side of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell, belonging to the field of automatic control of new energy utilization. Background technique [0002] The internal humidity of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell is an important index for evaluating its performance during operation. The change of the external load and the change of the inlet air parameters will cause the change of the internal humidity, which will cause the phenomenon of "membrane drying" and "water blocking" in severe cases. Therefore, the control of the internal humidity of the fuel cell is particularly important. The water content of the cathode side is the main control target of the internal humidity of the fuel cell. Whether it can be accurately and timely observed and controlled directly determines the operation status of the fuel cell. [0003] Scholars at home and abroad have done a lot of research...
