Abstract

The invention relates to a snakelike flow field structure, and belongs to the field of fuel cells. A plurality of snakelike ridges II are arranged in the central area of the flow field structure, each snakelike ridge II is formed by connecting a plurality of s-shaped units end to end, and a snakelike gas flow channel is formed between every two adjacent snakelike ridges II. The snakelike flow field structure has the advantages of good mass transfer effect, high drainage capacity and the like, and the battery performance can be remarkably improved. Meanwhile, the snakelike flow field structure is easy to machine, complex die design is not needed, and the snakelike flow field structure can be achieved through traditional machining.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a serpentine flow field structure and belongs to the field of fuel cells. Background technique

[0002] In recent years, due to the depletion of fossil resources and the increasingly prominent environmental problems, people's calls for new energy sources are getting louder and louder. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells have broad application prospects in transportation, aerospace, and portable power due to their characteristics of absolute cleanliness (the product is only water), high efficiency, mild working conditions, and good concealment. In 2019, the domestic fuel cell industry ushered in a small climax of development, and fuel cell companies blossomed everywhere.

[0003] However, looking at the current domestic fuel cell market, there is still a lot of room for improvement in fuel cell technology itself, and the first thing that bears the brunt is battery performance. The improvement of fuel cell technology can genera...
