[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] Co-electrolysis systems usually involve the coupling of multiple physical fields such as electricity, heat, fluid and force. However, there is a contradiction between the efficiency and life of the current co-electrolysis system under the coupling of multiple physical fields such as electricity, heat, fluid and force. The multi-physical field coupling has the following limitations: (1) Single-field simplified modeling defects: In related technologies, linearized electrochemical models are used, ignoring the nonlinear coupling of concentration polarization and temperature gradient, resulting in a prediction error of more than 20% under actual working conditions. For example, experiments show that when the current density is >1 A / cm², the traditional Butler-Volmer equation does not take into account the local gas starvation effect (β i Correction item), the current distribution calculation deviation can reach 15% to 30%; (2) Failure of static boundary control: The PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control algorithm is used in related technologies. The aforementioned control algorithm cannot adapt to the dynamic start and stop of the electrolyzer and load fluctuations. For example, measured data show that when the renewable energy power input fluctuates by ±30%, the temperature overshoot of the traditional method can reach 50K, which will accelerate the electrode sintering failure; (3) Dependence on structural design experience: Related technologies use a uniform flow channel design. The aforementioned design will lead to local thermal stress concentration. For example, micro-CT (Computed Tomography) Tomography (computed tomography) observations found that the probability of microcracks in conventional serpentine flow channels in high temperature areas (>800°C) is 4 times higher than that of fractal flow channels; (4) Multi-objective optimization fragmentation: Existing technologies optimize efficiency, thermal stress, pressure drop and other objectives independently, and fail to establish a collaborative mapping relationship of the Pareto frontier (ParetoFrontier refers to the set of all Pareto optimal solutions (non-dominated solutions) in a multi-objective optimization problem), which will lead to a system-level energy efficiency loss of 12% to 18%.
[0026] The embodiment of the present application is based on multi-scale coupling modeling and intelligent optimization algorithm. By integrating the principles of electrochemical dynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics and thermoelasticity, a coupling mathematical model is established, and an improved intelligent optimization algorithm is used to realize the global optimization of the coupling mathematical model. It can optimize the multi-physical field coupling of the co-electrolysis system, so that the optimized co-electrolysis system is suitable for the regulation of complex working conditions. Specifically, the co-electrolysis system adopts a fractal flow channel structure design. The fractal flow channel can optimize the mass distribution through the self-similar structure, reduce the flow resistance and reduce the pressure drop, thereby improving the thermal field uniformity and realizing the optimization of the flow channel structure. Among them, the tree-like fractal structure can enhance convective heat transfer, reduce the temperature gradient, and provide support for subsequent global optimization. When the co-electrolysis system adopts a fractal flow channel structure design to improve the thermal field uniformity, a coupling mathematical model is constructed based on the multi-physical field coupling relationship to avoid the defects of single-field simplified modeling, and the micro-scale electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the meso-scale non-Darcy seepage simulation model, the macro-scale thermal stress field calculation model and The fractal porous media permeability models of fractal flow channels are coupled with each other, and a collaborative mapping relationship of the Pareto front is established, and the coupled mathematical models are optimized for multiple objectives to avoid the phenomenon of multi-objective optimization fragmentation; and based on the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model and the thermal stress field calculation model, the corrected control parameters of the co-electrolysis system are obtained. The corrected control parameters are used to feed back to the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the non-Darcy seepage simulation model to achieve adaptive adjustment of the dynamic boundary, so as to correct control parameters such as voltage and flow in real time, which can be applicable to operating conditions such as gas concentration fluctuations and sudden temperature gradient changes.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of the steps of a multi-physics field coupling optimization method for a co-electrolysis system provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may specifically include the following steps:
[0028] Step S101 : during the operation of the co-electrolysis system, a coupling mathematical model constructed based on a multi-physical field coupling relationship and a fractal porous medium permeability model for a fractal flow channel are obtained.
[0029] The coupled mathematical model constructed based on the multi-physical field coupling relationship can be a multi-scale dynamic coupling model, which can include a micro-scale electrochemical kinetics calculation model, a meso-scale non-Darcy seepage simulation model, and a macro-scale thermal stress field calculation model. Among them, the micro-scale can refer to the electrode pore scale, the meso-scale can refer to the flow channel unit scale, and the macro-scale can refer to the battery stack as a whole. The embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.
[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, the co-electrolysis system adopts a fractal flow channel structural design. The fractal flow channel can optimize mass distribution through self-similar structure, reduce flow resistance and reduce pressure drop, thereby improving thermal field uniformity and optimizing the flow channel structure. Among them, the tree-like fractal structure can enhance convective heat transfer, reduce temperature gradient, and provide support for subsequent global optimization.
[0031] Specifically, the mathematical models at various scales are coupled with each other, as well as with the fractal porous media permeability model for the fractal flow channel. Specifically, the mesoscale non-Darcy flow simulation model is coupled with the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the fractal porous media permeability model, and the macroscale thermal stress field calculation model is coupled with the mesoscale non-Darcy flow simulation model and the microscale electrochemical kinetics calculation model. For example, the electrochemical reaction mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the flow field pressure distribution of the fractal porous media permeability model can be coupled to the non-Darcy flow simulation model, and the convection term of the non-Darcy flow simulation model and the mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model can be coupled to the thermal stress field calculation model.
[0032] The physical field parameters between the mutually coupled models can form a closed-loop control. For example, the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model can participate in the step of dynamic boundary adjustment, affecting the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system, forming a closed-loop optimization; the physical field parameters output by the thermal stress field calculation model can participate in the step of dynamic boundary adjustment, affecting the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system, forming a closed-loop optimization; the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system can be fed back to the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the non-Darcy seepage simulation model, affecting the physical field parameters output by them, forming a closed-loop feedback; the permeability of the fractal porous media permeability model can be fed back to the non-Darcy seepage simulation model to update the flow field pressure distribution; the physical field parameters output by the thermal stress field calculation model can also participate in the step of multi-objective optimization, forming a closed-loop optimization; the physical field parameters of the coupled mathematical model after multi-objective optimization can be fed back to the model parameters of each model to complete the global iteration.
[0033] In practical applications, the coupled mathematical model can be applied during the operation of the co-electrolysis system.
[0034] Optionally, in the coupled mathematical model, the electrochemical kinetics calculation model can be used to describe the three-phase boundary reaction in electrochemistry; the non-Darcy seepage simulation model can couple the electrochemical reaction mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the flow field pressure distribution of the fractal porous media permeability model to reveal the influence of the gas concentration gradient on the flow velocity field, and provide convection term input for the subsequent thermal-mechanical coupling analysis performed by the thermal stress field calculation model; the thermal stress field calculation model can couple the convection term of the non-Darcy seepage simulation model and the mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model to realize the coupling of the three physical fields of electricity, heat and force, convert the heat generated by the current density into a temperature field, and then calculate the thermal stress distribution, providing key input parameters for flow channel structure optimization and multi-objective optimization.
[0035] Step S102 , obtaining corrected control parameters of the co-electrolysis system based on the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model, and the thermal stress field calculation model.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model can participate in the step of dynamic boundary adjustment, affect the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system, and form a closed-loop optimization; the physical field parameters output by the thermal stress field calculation model can participate in the step of dynamic boundary adjustment, affect the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system, and form a closed-loop optimization; the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system can be fed back to the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the non-Darcy seepage simulation model, affect the physical field parameters output by them, and form a closed-loop feedback.
[0037] Specifically, based on the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model and the thermal stress field calculation model, the corrected control parameters of the co-electrolysis system can be obtained. The corrected control parameters are used to feed back to the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the non-Darcy seepage simulation model to achieve adaptive adjustment of the dynamic boundary, so as to correct the control parameters such as voltage and flow in real time, which can be applicable to changes in operating conditions such as gas concentration fluctuations and sudden changes in temperature gradients.
[0038] Optionally, the feedback mechanism formed by the closed-loop control can be expressed as "prediction-measurement-correction", which ensures that the co-electrolysis system maintains the balance of multi-physical field coupling during dynamic changes based on the feedback mechanism.
[0039] Optionally, the feedback mechanism can be implemented with the help of preset state-space equations and preset observation equations. The preset state-space equations are used to describe the system state of the co-electrolysis system, such as the dynamic process of temperature, pressure, concentration, stress, etc. evolving over time, including the control input of physical field parameters and the dynamic process of noise interference; the preset observation equations can map the system state to actual measurable physical quantities, such as infrared temperature measurement data, pressure sensor data, etc., to take into account the influence of measurement noise.
[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, a state vector can be first constructed based on the physical field parameters output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model and the thermal stress field calculation model; then, the state vector can be used as the initial condition of the preset state-space equation, and the predicted physical parameters of the co-electrolysis system at the next operating moment can be predicted by the preset state-space equation. At this time, the actual sensor data of the co-electrolysis system at the next operating moment can be obtained, and the predicted physical parameters of the co-electrolysis system at the next operating moment and the actual sensor data of the co-electrolysis system at the next operating moment are substituted into the preset observation equation, and then the control parameters of the co-electrolysis system are corrected in real time to obtain the corrected control parameters of the co-electrolysis system.
[0041] For example, in order to achieve noise suppression during the prediction process, the preset state space equation can adopt a UKF (Unscented Kalman Filter) filtering state equation to eliminate the interference of noise and observation noise in the dynamic change process. This embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.
[0042] Step S103 : obtaining optimized permeability by adjusting the fractal parameters of the fractal porous medium permeability model.
[0043] In some examples of the present application, the co-electrolysis system adopts a fractal flow channel structural design. The fractal flow channel can optimize mass distribution through self-similar structure, reduce flow resistance and reduce pressure drop, thereby improving thermal field uniformity and optimizing the flow channel structure.
[0044] The tree-like fractal structure can enhance convective heat transfer, reduce temperature gradients, and provide support for subsequent global optimization. The fractal laws of the fractal flow channel can be referenced to the fractal laws of biological vascular systems in nature, such as plant veins and animal blood vessels. The radius ratios of the fractal flow channel branches can be optimized using the principle of conservation of mass flow to ensure uniform distribution of the fluid in each level of the flow channel, reducing flow resistance and ensuring that the fluid distribution complies with the principle of minimum energy consumption, such as the optimal transport law in nature. This is not limited in the present embodiment of the application.
[0045] Specifically, the optimization of flow channel structure can be linked to the mass transfer characteristics of porous media through fractal geometry theory.
[0046] The specific geometric parameters of the fractal flow channel structure, such as the radius of each level and the bifurcation angle, can directly determine the fractal parameters of the fractal porous media permeability model, and thus affect the calculation of the permeability of the fractal porous media permeability model.
[0047] The non-Darcy flow simulation model can be coupled with a fractal porous media permeability model. The permeability of the fractal porous media permeability model can be fed back to the non-Darcy flow simulation model to update the flow field pressure distribution. To support global optimization of the coupled mathematical model, embodiments of the present application can adjust the fractal parameters of the fractal porous media permeability model to obtain an optimized permeability. This optimized permeability can then be fed back to the non-Darcy flow simulation model to update the flow field pressure distribution, forming a closed loop of multi-physics field coupled optimization.
[0048] Optionally, the fractal parameters of the fractal porous medium permeability model may be adjusted with the goal of minimizing a preset coupling objective function to obtain optimized permeability, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0049] Step S104 , based on the real-time updated physical field parameters of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model, and the thermal stress field calculation model, multi-objective optimization is performed on the coupled mathematical model to obtain an optimized coupled mathematical model.
[0050] In some examples of the present application, the physical field parameters output by the thermal stress field calculation model can participate in the multi-objective optimization steps to form a closed-loop optimization; the physical field parameters of the coupled mathematical model after multi-objective optimization can be fed back to the model parameters of each model to complete the global iteration.
[0051] Specifically, in order to resolve conflicts among multiple objectives such as electricity, heat, and force, for example, reducing the temperature gradient may aggravate the problem of uneven current distribution, a collaborative mapping relationship of the Pareto frontier can be established, and multi-objective optimization can be performed on the coupled mathematical model to obtain the Pareto optimal solution set, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of multi-objective optimization fragmentation.
[0052] Optionally, the collaborative mapping relationship can be implemented by constructing a multi-objective optimization function based on the real-time updated physical field parameters of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy flow simulation model, and the thermal stress field calculation model. In this case, the multi-objective optimization function can be solved to obtain a Pareto optimal solution set. A Pareto optimal solution set is a solution set in which one objective cannot be further optimized without sacrificing other objectives. Specifically, it satisfies the requirement that reducing the value of any objective function (such as temperature gradient, current error, or thermal stress) inevitably leads to a deterioration in the value of at least one other objective function.
[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, the Pareto optimal solution set obtained by the solution may include physical field parameters after multi-objective optimization, and the physical field parameters after multi-objective optimization may be fed back to the coupled mathematical model to obtain an optimized coupled mathematical model, thereby achieving global iteration of the coupled mathematical model. That is, the optimal equilibrium value of a global parameter may be reached through iteration of the Pareto optimal solution set, and then the relevant physical field parameters when the optimal equilibrium value is reached may be fed back to the aforementioned steps to modify each working condition, thereby achieving a new coupled mathematical model. In short, step S104 may be used to achieve optimal adjustment of each input parameter in this step under a certain complex working condition, and these input parameters are also the basic components of the model mentioned in the aforementioned steps.
[0054] It should be noted that the physical field parameters after multi-objective optimization may include but are not limited to the optimal flow channel radius, operating voltage range, etc. The physical field parameters after the aforementioned target optimization can be fed back to the aforementioned model, for example, fed back to the electrochemical kinetics calculation model to correct parameters such as the exchange current density and concentration correction index, and fed back to the flow channel structure optimization to update the flow channel geometric parameters. Through the closed-loop feedback mechanism, the coordinated optimization of the electrochemical-flow field-thermal stress field is achieved through the Pareto solution set, thereby maximizing the energy conversion efficiency while ensuring system stability.
[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, in order for those skilled in the art to further understand the multi-physics field coupling optimization method provided in the embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 The specific model formula is described as follows:
[0056] Reference Figure 2 , showing a process diagram of the multi-physics field coupling optimization method of an embodiment of the present application.
[0057] The coupled mathematical model constructed based on the multi-physical field coupling relationship can include a micro-scale electrochemical kinetics calculation model, a meso-scale non-Darcy percolation simulation model, and a macro-scale thermal stress field calculation model.
[0058] Step S201: The electrochemical kinetics calculation model performs micro-scale electrochemical kinetics calculations.
[0059] The electrochemical kinetics calculation model can be mainly used to describe the three-phase boundary reaction in electrochemistry. The three-phase boundary reaction refers to the interface area where the gas phase, liquid phase / ionic phase and solid phase contact each other in electrochemistry. This area is the active site where the electrochemical reaction occurs and can directly affect the device performance.
[0060] For example, the electrochemical kinetics calculation model may adopt the modified Butler-Volmer equation, and the specific formula may be as follows:
[0061]
[0062] in, is the local current density (unit: A / m 2 ), which serves as the output; is the exchange current density (unit: A / m 2 ), which can be used to indicate the equilibrium reaction rate, and this value can be obtained through experimental measurement; is the anode transfer coefficient, is the cathode transfer coefficient, which can be obtained through experimental calibration, such as polarization curve fitting; is the Faraday constant, the specific value can be 96485 C / mol, which is a physical constant; is the gas constant, the specific value can be 8.314J / (mol·K), which is a physical constant; is the temperature field (in K), which is used as an input quantity and its specific value can be determined based on the global temperature field; is the gas concentration (unit is mol / m 3 ), which as an input can be the concentration of gases such as H2O / CO2 / H2 based on the flow field model or experimental measurement; is the reference concentration (unit: mol / m 3 ), that is, the concentration under standard working conditions, which belongs to the theoretical definition; is a concentration correction index, which can be used to indicate the reaction level. The specific value can be obtained through experimental calibration or molecular dynamics simulation. i is used to indicate the gas component. The specific value depends on the electrolysis type. For example, for high-temperature electrolysis SOEC (Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell), i=1 indicates H2O, and i=2 indicates CO2. For low-temperature electrolysis PEMEC (Proton Exchange Membrane Electrolysis Cell), i=1 indicates H2O, and i=2 indicates O2. is the overpotential (in V), which can be used to indicate the additional potential difference required to drive the reaction. As an input, it can be calculated from the electrode potential difference. The specific calculation formula can be shown as follows:
[0063]
[0064] in, is the equilibrium potential (calculated by Nernst equation); is the electric potential field input of the zinc electrode, specifically a negative value; is the electric potential field input on the solution side, which takes a positive value.
[0065] In step S201, the input of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model is the initial gas concentration and temperature field The initial value can be obtained by measurement; the output of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model is the local current density . Optionally, local current density It can be used to calculate the reaction rate. The calculated reaction rate can be used as the electrochemical reaction mass source term to provide the non-Darcy flow simulation model in step S202 for non-Darcy flow simulation; local current density It can also be provided as a mass source term to the thermal stress field calculation model in step S203, so that the thermal stress field calculation model can calculate the Joule heat; the local current density It can also be used as a boundary condition to participate in the adaptive adjustment of the dynamic boundary in step S204 to form a closed-loop optimization.
[0066] Step S202: The non-Darcy seepage simulation model performs a mesoscopic-scale non-Darcy seepage simulation.
[0067] The non-Darcy seepage simulation model can couple the electrochemical reaction mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model and the flow field pressure distribution of the fractal porous media permeability model, revealing the influence of the gas concentration gradient on the flow velocity field, and providing convection term input for the subsequent thermal-mechanical coupling analysis performed by the thermal stress field calculation model.
[0068] Optionally, the electrochemical reaction mass source term of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model may be a reaction rate. The reaction rate may be calculated based on the local current density output by the electrochemical kinetics calculation model. For example, the specific formula may be as follows:
[0069]
[0070] in, is the reaction rate; is the local current density; is the reaction area; is the number of electron transfers, taking CO2 electrolysis as an example, =2; is the Faraday constant, the specific value of which can be 96485 C / mol, which is a physical constant.
[0071] The flow field pressure distribution of the fractal porous media permeability model can be based on the permeability output by the fractal porous media permeability model in step S205. It should be noted that the multi-physics field coupling process is an overall closed-loop feedback optimization. The permeability output in the following seepage equation can be the permeability obtained in the previous round of optimization of the fractal porous media permeability model, and this embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.
[0072] For example, the seepage equation of the non-Darcy seepage simulation model can be as follows:
[0073]
[0074]
[0075] in, is the permeability (unit: m 2 ), which is the effective permeability, can be used to indicate the effective permeability tensor, and the specific value can be calculated based on the geometric parameters of the fractal flow channel; is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid (in Pa·s), the specific value can be obtained through experimental measurement or temperature table lookup; is the fluid pressure field (unit: Pa), and its specific value is obtained by solving the variable output; is the pressure gradient, and its specific value can be calculated based on the fluid pressure field; The reaction rate calculated by the microscale model (in kg / (m³·s)) can be used as the electrochemical reaction mass source term to indicate the distribution of the mass source term at each reaction point. The specific value can be calculated based on step S201; is the total source term input of the mesoscopic flow field, which represents the sum of the mass source terms generated by all microscopic electrochemical reaction units in the mesoscopic scale model. Specifically, the total source term input of the mesoscopic flow field can be obtained by integrating the mass source terms of all microscopic reaction units; Indicates the divergence operation of the vector field in the brackets; is the velocity field component, where the subscript d represents the spatial direction of the velocity field component, that is, the dimensional direction of the spatial coordinate system usually corresponds to the xyz direction in the rectangular coordinate system. For example, when the subscript d=1, it corresponds to the x-axis direction, when the subscript d=2, it corresponds to the y-axis direction, and when the subscript d=3, it corresponds to the z-axis direction.
[0076] It should be noted that the above seepage equation describes the non-Darcy seepage behavior of fluid flow in porous media, which is different from the traditional Darcy law.

Specifically, when the wind and solar power generation power fluctuations cause the electrolyzer input voltage to change frequently, the coupled mathematical model can be called to coordinate the current density and temperature field distribution in real time. For example, when the offshore wind power supporting hydrogen production project encounters typhoon weather, the coupled mathematical model can automatically switch the operating mode to a low-load insulation state, thereby avoiding thermal stress cracks caused by sudden shutdown; as another example, the coupled mathematical model can also be applied to exhaust field Specifically, in the co-electrolysis of power plant tail gas (containing CO2) to produce synthesis gas, fluctuations in the feed gas composition (such as a sudden drop in CO2 concentration from 30% to 15%) will significantly affect the reaction equilibrium. In this case, the coupled mathematical model can dynamically adjust the H2O / CO2 feed ratio and electrolysis temperature to maintain the target H2 / CO output ratio, thereby ensuring the stability of the feedstock for downstream Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. As another example, the coupled mathematical model can also be applied to extreme environment adaptability verification. Specifically, in order to simulate the impact of low gravity and high radiation environments on multi-field coupling, the coupled mathematical model can predict the electrolysis efficiency attenuation curve under extreme conditions by introducing a gravity acceleration correction term and a material radiation damage coefficient to guide protection design.As another example, coupled mathematical models can also be applied to standard compliance testing. Specifically, when a newly enacted energy efficiency standard requires that the carbon footprint of an electrolysis system over its entire lifecycle be below a certain threshold, the coupled mathematical model can be used to quantify the energy consumption and emissions of different operating strategies and generate a compliance report. This embodiment of the present application does not limit other application scenarios of the coupled mathematical model.

The optimized permeability can be provided to the non-Darcy seepage simulation model to update the flow field pressure distribution, thus realizing closed-loop feedback between the coupled mathematical models. Furthermore, based on the real-time updated physical field parameters of the electrochemical kinetics calculation model, the non-Darcy seepage simulation model, and the thermal stress field calculation model, the coupled mathematical model is multi-objective optimized to obtain the optimized coupled mathematical model. In the case where the co-electrolysis system adopts a fractal flow channel structural design to improve the uniformity of the thermal field, a coupled mathematical model is established based on multi-scale coupling modeling and intelligent optimization algorithms by integrating the principles of electrochemical kinetics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and thermoelasticity. The coupled mathematical model is then globally optimized by multi-objective optimization of the coupled mathematical model, which can optimize the multi-physical field coupling of the co-electrolysis system and make the optimized co-electrolysis system suitable for the regulation of complex working conditions.
