Problems solved by technology

[0012] The above-mentioned fuel cell and its control method control the supply of fuel and gas according to the voltage of the fuel cell, but as mentioned before, the voltage change of the fuel cell does not reflect the real situation of the chemical reaction process in the battery Direct parameters, so the method of controlling the fuel / gas supply according to the voltage of the fuel cell is obviously not direct and effective, and cannot play a role in early prevention, and is not scientific
[0013] In addition, there are also two disadvantages in the fuel cell and its control method of the above-mentioned active fuel supply / air supply: one is that the continuous operation of the additional fuel pump and air compressor or fan will consume a lot of energy, so that the output efficiency of the battery The second is that the fuel pump and air compressor or fan have a short service life under continuous operation

example 1

[0061] This example is used to illustrate the fuel cell system provided by the present invention.

[0062] Each component device was constructed as described in Comparative Example 1, except that the fuel cell system B was composed as shown in FIG. 4 . Wherein the discharge current of the fuel cell generator is constant at 125 milliamperes / square centimeter, and the setting duty cycle is 30 minutes. According to the curve of Fig. 5, the current is 125 milliamperes / square centimeter and the scheduled working time is 60 seconds, then the scheduled idle time is 60 seconds. The time is 29 minutes.

example 2

[0064] This example is used to illustrate the fuel cell system provided by the present invention.

[0065] Fuel cell system C was composed as described in Example 1. The difference is that the discharge current of the fuel cell generator is constant at 60 milliamperes / square centimeter, and the set duty cycle is 30 minutes. According to the curve in Figure 5, the current is 60 milliamperes / square centimeter and the predetermined working time is 30 minutes. seconds, the scheduled idle time is 29 minutes and 30 seconds.

[0066] The following examples illustrate the characteristics of the fuel cell system provided by the present invention.

example 3

[0068] Using an electronic load meter, measure the output power of the fuel cell systems A, B, and C over time, and draw the output power-time curves, which are shown in Figure 7, Figure 8, and Figure 9 respectively.

[0069]It can be seen from Figure 7 that the output power of the fuel cell system A is about 4.4 watts, which is the net output power of the fuel cell generator after the power consumed by the fuel pump and air compressor is removed. It can be seen that using this Although this kind of active material / air supply can maintain a stable output for a long time, the system itself consumes, so the output power is not high.

[0070] It can be seen from Fig. 8 that the output power of the fuel cell system B changes every 30 minutes, and the output power is stable in the range of 4.9 watts to 5 watts in most of the time (about 28 minutes).

[0071] Similarly, it can be seen from Figure 9 that the output power of the fuel cell system C also changes every 30 minutes, and th...

Abstract

The invention is concerned with a kind of fuel cell system and its control method. The system relates to fuel cell generator, fuel feed equipment, gas feed equipment, test unit and control unit. The said control unit is used to accept parameter of fuel cell generator tested by test unit and thus to control fuel feed equipment and gas feed equipment. The test unit is current test equipment for testing discharge current of fuel cell generator. Take the discharge current of fuel cell generator as main parameter to control fuel / gas feed equipment. Its effect is better than that of testing voltage of fuel cell generator to control the system of fuel / gas feed equipment. The system and its control method control the length of work time to fuel / gas feed system by the magnitude of discharge current, and its course is intermittent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel cell system and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a device that directly converts chemical energy into electrical energy. It has the characteristics of high efficiency, less pollution and low noise. A fuel cell can be just a single fuel cell, or a fuel cell stack composed of multiple single fuel cells. As shown in FIG. 1 , a single fuel cell generally includes a proton exchange membrane 1 , an anode 2 , a cathode 3 and a guide plate 4 . In an organic fuel cell system, air or oxygen is generally used as an oxidant, and organic matter such as methanol, formic acid or ethanol is used as a fuel. For example, a fuel cell that uses air as the oxidant and methanol as the fuel undergoes the following reactions during electrochemical reactions: [0003] Anode CH 3 OH+H 2 O→CO 2 +6H + +6e (1) [0004] Cathode 3 / 2O 2 +6H + +6e→3H 2 O(2) [0005] The reaction at the anode and cathode ...
