Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fuel cell temperature control, in particular to a fuel cell air intake temperature control device and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] As people pay more and more attention to environmental and energy issues, fuel cells are considered to be one of the most promising energy sources, which have the advantages of high conversion efficiency, high power density, no pollution, and low noise. [0003] The raw materials of the fuel cell system are hydrogen and oxygen in the air, respectively, and the hydrogen and air are transported to the inside of the fuel cell through pipelines. Among them, the temperature of the air after being compressed by the air compressor is relatively high, and the temperature is usually lowered by using an intercooler; the cooling method is generally that the intercooler is connected in parallel with the stack cooling water circuit, and this method cannot control...
