Embodiment 2

[0040] In the method for realizing self-starting at extremely low temperatures, step (2) is ahead of step (1) by a specific time. Moreover, the solenoid valve 2 opens when the ambient temperature is -8°C to -3°C, which can be -7°C or -5°C. The reason is that after the temperature rises to the critical temperature of -3°C, it can operate normally and is lower than -3°C. You must press a special operation to succeed.

Abstract

The invention discloses a hydrogen combustion heater of a fuel cell engine. The hydrogen combustion heater comprises a partition plate, an enhanced heat exchange device and a catalytic reactor, the enhanced heat exchange device and the catalytic reactor are arranged on the two sides of the partition plate respectively, the enhanced heat exchange device comprises a cooling water way, a catalyst covering layer is arranged between the partition plate and the catalytic reactor, and cooling liquid pipe valves and three-way connectors are arranged on the heat exchange device and the catalytic reactor respectively. The method for realizing low-temperature self-starting of the fuel cell engine comprises the following steps that: after receiving a starting signal, the engine self-checks the ambienttemperature; when the environment temperature ranges from -8 DEG C to -3 DEG C, a signal is sent to the cold start electromagnetic valve, and the hydrogen pipeline cold start electromagnetic valve isopened; hydrogen flows into the heater to be mixed with air to generate chemical reaction to generate heat, cooling water is heated, meanwhile, the cooling liquid control valve acts to disconnect theradiator assembly and an inlet of the deionizer branch, and the cooling liquid only flows through the heating device and is heated; and the heated cooling water heats an electric pile of the engine,so that rapid low-temperature cold start of the fuel cell engine is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fuel cell engines, and relates to an auxiliary device for low-temperature cold start of a fuel cell engine, in particular to a hydrogen combustion heater for a fuel cell engine and a method for self-starting a fuel cell engine in an extremely low temperature environment. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a device that directly converts chemical energy in fuel into electrical energy. Proton exchange membrane fuel cell is the most widely used one, and is widely used in automobiles, mobile power stations and other fields. In the fuel cell work project, hydrogen and air are respectively fed into the anode and cathode sides of the fuel cell, and an electrochemical reaction occurs on the membrane electrode to generate electric energy and output, and at the same time, the cooling water fed into the stack takes away the heat generated by the reaction . [0003] At present, fuel cell engines still have problems ...
