Abstract

The invention discloses an overpressure protection device for a fuel cell and a control method. The overpressure protection device comprises a normally open first electromagnetic valve, a pressure relief valve, a first pressure detecting module and a control module, wherein the first pressure detecting module is used for detecting a first pressure value of an anode side of the fuel cell and sending the first pressure value to the control module; the control module is used for judging whether the first pressure value meets a first set range, and if yes, the first solenoid valve is controlled tobe intermittently opened or kept to be in an open state; and if the first pressure value exceeds the first set range, the fuel cell is controlled to be power-off and stopped, and the pressure reliefvalve is controlled to be open. Multi-stage control on the high pressure at the anode side of the fuel cell can be realized, thereby flexibly and effectively realizing overpressure protection on the anode side of the fuel cell; and besides, the requirement of the balance of the anode and cathode pressure difference of the fuel cell is satisfied, and the fuel cell work safety and the stability arefurther improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of battery protection, in particular to an overvoltage protection device and a control method for a fuel cell. Background technique [0002] For fuel cells, such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells, the chemical energy in the fuel (usually hydrogen or methanol) is directly converted into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction, which has the significant advantages of high energy conversion efficiency and no pollutant emissions. Specifically, the fuel gas and the oxidizing gas are fed into the anode and cathode of the fuel cell membrane electrode respectively, and the fuel gas separates electrons and ions on the anode, and the electrons are conducted to the cathode through an external circuit to form a circuit to generate current; the ions react in the electric field Under this condition, the electrolyte migrates to the cathode, and the electrons and ions react with the oxidizing gas on the c...
