Abstract

The invention discloses an inner-fin temperature-controlled bipolar plate and a working method thereof. The inner-fin temperature-controlled bipolar plate includes a cathode plate and an anode plate. The cathode plate is processed on one side and the anode plate is processed on both sides. The process is optimized and the processing cost is reduced. The present invention adopts the design that the cooling liquid flow direction is perpendicular to the fuel flow direction, which accelerates the whole-field average process of heat and overcomes the local overheating problem of the bipolar plate; the present invention utilizes phase-change materials to absorb the heat released by electrochemical reactions, and It can effectively improve the energy utilization efficiency of reactants. It not only outputs electric energy, but also stores waste heat through phase change materials as a thermal insulation heat source during the stack standby process. It saves energy and improves the rapid response characteristics of stack restart.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electrochemical reaction devices, in particular to an inner-fin temperature-controlled bipolar plate and a working method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of industrial society, the consumption of fossil energy remains high, followed by a large number of emissions of greenhouse gases, which cause a series of problems such as global warming. The research and development of new energy is a hot topic in the industry and academia. As a high-efficiency device for energy conversion, the electrochemical reaction device has attracted widespread attention because of its high energy conversion efficiency, low emission or even zero emission, and has a promising application prospect. Electrochemical energy supply devices represented by fuel cells and electrochemical energy storage devices represented by flow batteries are typical devices for electrochemical reaction devices. Redox reactions essentia...
