Problems solved by technology

At present, the patents of PEMFC cold start system and control method also have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, the publication number: CN110931829A, this patent heats hydrogen and air separately during cold start, and uses a heatable nitrogen purge device to purge the cathode and anode of PEMFC at the end of the work. , although this patent can prevent the stack from freezing after the fuel cell works in a low temperature environment, it consumes a large amount of gas and has a low purge efficiency; the announcement number: CN210723237U, this patent divides the fuel cell system into three parts, respectively It is the first gas circuit, the second gas circuit and heating components and is controlled by the central control system. It has high cold start efficiency and sufficient heating, but its control logic is relatively complicated and energy consumption is relatively large; announcement number: CN209374566U, the patented design A micro-pump circulation system is used for heat preservation and heating of the stack, which can assist the cold start process, but it cannot solve the freezing phenomenon of the fuel cell when it is below 0°C for a long time
