Abstract

The invention provides a series group battery of passive self-breathing direct methanol fuel battery, where the anodes of adjacent cells share a methanol liquor storage cavity, and the cathodes of the adjacent cells share a gas storage cavity, and the cathode and anode plates which need connecting in series are replaced with stainless steel netting, one side of which acts as the anode plate for a cell and the other side of which acts as the cathode plate for the adjacent cell, filler piece is placed between the stainless steel netting and organic glass equipped with methanol liquor storage cavity, membrane electrode assembly of the fuel battery is placed between the anode and cathode plates of each cell, the methanol solution is distributed through shunt pipe into each liquor storage sub cavity, and the whole group battery is screwed with four screws. And its advantages: this design has novel structure, is easy to install, and reduces the bulk of the series group battery on the premise of the same number of cells, the contact area of reactant methanol and anodes is large so that the reaction is complete.

Description

1. Technical field

[0001] The field that the present invention relates to is a fuel cell, specifically a passive self-breathing direct methanol fuel cell series battery stack structure design. 2. Background technology

[0002] Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) have inherent advantages as a miniature portable energy source. High specific energy and energy conversion efficiency are the main reasons for interest. At the same time, the fixed external structure and the liquid fuel that can be filled at any time also provide convenient conditions for users. It has simple structure, short response time and convenient operation. Compared with the active direct methanol fuel cell, the passive self-breathing direct methanol fuel cell has a large contact area and a complete reaction. It does not need an external power source for liquid feeding, but only needs a methanol liquid storage chamber. The oxygen required for the cathode reaction comes from air, and That is, the cathode doe...
