[0041] The embodiment of the present invention solves the technical problem of how to make the manifold flow of a spliced-type fuel cell stack uniform by providing a method and a device for equalizing the manifold flow of a spliced-type fuel cell stack.
[0042] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0043] First of all, the term "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0044] The manifold of this embodiment has a first port and a plurality of second ports connected to the first port. The manifold of this embodiment can be any one of an air manifold inlet, an air manifold outlet, a hydrogen manifold inlet, a hydrogen manifold outlet, a coolant manifold inlet, and a coolant manifold outlet. When the manifold is an inlet, the first port is a fluid inlet and the second port is a fluid outlet. When the manifold is an outlet, the first port is a fluid outlet and the second port is a fluid outlet. The air manifold inlet and the hydrogen manifold inlet can be connected to Figure 2 The structure is the same as that of the air manifold outlet and the hydrogen manifold outlet. Figure 3 The structure is the same.
[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the method for equalizing the manifold fluid flow of the stack type fuel cell stack of this embodiment includes:
[0046] Step S1, opening the first port and opening each second port in turn, only one second port is opened at the same time and the other second ports are closed;
[0047] Step S2, during the process of the fluid flowing in the manifold, obtaining the fluid flow rate of the second port in the open state;
[0048] Step S3, determining the flow non-uniformity of each second port according to the multiple fluid flow rates of the multiple second ports;
[0049] Step S4: If at least one flow non-uniformity is higher than a preset threshold, the manifold is optimized until each flow non-uniformity is lower than the preset threshold.
[0050] The method of this embodiment can be implemented on a 3D-modeled patchwork stack model, or on an actual patchwork stack. This embodiment is implemented on a patchwork stack model, and a CFD method can be used.
[0051] for Figure 2 In the coolant manifold inlet shown in step S1, the inlet is opened and outlets 1, 2, and 3 are opened in turn; when outlet 1 is opened, outlets 2 and 3 are closed; when outlet 2 is opened, outlets 1 and 3 are closed; when outlet 3 is opened, outlets 1 and 2 are closed. Figure 3 The coolant manifold outlet pipe shown opens the outlet and opens inlet 1, inlet 2, and inlet 3 in turn; when inlet 1 is opened, inlet 2 and inlet 3 are closed; when inlet 2 is opened, inlet 1 and inlet 3 are closed; when inlet 3 is opened, inlet 1 and inlet 2 are closed.
[0052] In step S2, the fluid flow rate of each second port in the open state can be calculated by an existing CFD method. When the manifold is an air manifold inlet, an air manifold outlet, a hydrogen manifold inlet, a hydrogen manifold outlet, a coolant manifold inlet or a coolant manifold outlet, the corresponding fluids are air, air, hydrogen, hydrogen, coolant, and coolant, respectively.
[0053] In step S3, the flow unevenness of each second port represents the difference between the flow of this second port and the average flow. The larger the difference, the greater the flow unevenness. It can be understood that when the flow unevenness of each second port is very small, the flow of the manifold can be considered to be uniform. Step S3 can first obtain the average flow of multiple fluid flows, and then obtain the difference between the fluid flow of each second port and the average flow. This difference can be directly reflected by the flow difference, or by the ratio of the flow difference to the average flow. This embodiment is preferably reflected by the ratio of the flow difference to the average flow, that is, step S3 includes: obtaining the average flow of multiple fluid flows and the flow difference between each fluid flow and the average flow; determining the ratio of the flow difference corresponding to the second port to the average flow is the flow unevenness of the second port.
[0054] In step S4, the preset threshold value may be 5%, or slightly greater than or less than 5%. If the flow non-uniformity corresponding to at least one second port is higher than the preset threshold value, it indicates that the fluid flow of the manifold is non-uniform, and the manifold needs to be optimized. After optimization, the flow non-uniformity is calculated again through steps S1-S3, and the next cycle is performed. Optimizing the manifold may be changing the structure of the manifold, such as Figure 2and Figure 3 In the embodiment, the pipelines where the multiple second ports are located are arranged in parallel, and the pipeline where the first port is located is a straight pipe and is perpendicular to the pipelines where the multiple second ports are located; for the manifold inlet pipe or the manifold outlet pipe, especially the inlet pipe, if the fluid flow rate of a certain second port is greater than the average flow rate, the connection between the pipeline where the second port is located and the pipeline where the first port is located can be moved in a direction away from the first port, so that the distance between the connection between the pipeline where the second port is located and the pipeline where the first port is located and the first port becomes larger, thereby reducing the fluid flow rate of this second port; if the fluid flow rate of a certain second port is less than the average flow rate, the connection between the pipeline where the second port is located and the pipeline where the first port is located can be moved in a direction close to the first port, so that the distance between the connection between the pipeline where the second port is located and the pipeline where the first port is located and the first port becomes smaller, thereby increasing the fluid flow rate of this second port; in this way, the fluid flow rate of each second port can be close to each other, so as to reduce the flow unevenness corresponding to each second port.
[0055] As can be seen from the above, this embodiment first opens the first port of the manifold and opens each second port in turn. During the flow of the fluid in the manifold, the fluid flow of the second port in the open state is obtained, thereby realizing the detection of the fluid flow of the second port; according to the multiple fluid flow rates of the multiple second ports, the flow unevenness of each second port is determined. If at least one flow unevenness is higher than a preset threshold, it means that the fluid flow of the manifold is uneven. Then, the manifold is optimized until each flow unevenness is lower than the preset threshold. In this way, the manifold can be optimized when the fluid flow of the manifold is uneven, so that the fluid flow of the manifold can be made uniform, which is conducive to ensuring that the performance of each single stack is similar.
[0056] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the air manifold inlet, air manifold outlet, hydrogen manifold inlet, hydrogen manifold outlet, coolant manifold inlet and coolant manifold outlet can be optimized through steps S1-S4, so that the air flow, hydrogen flow and coolant flow of each single stack are uniform, so that the performance of each single stack is closest.
[0057] The homogenization method mentioned above can make the fluid flow rate of the manifold uniform, but the fluid not only flows in the manifold, but also in the single stack. In order to ensure the uniformity of the fluid flow rate of each single stack, this embodiment preferably has the same position of the fluid inlet and the same position of the fluid outlet on each single stack in the assembled stack. Figure 5As shown, for the coolant, it can flow into the single stack from the left side of the bipolar plate and flow out of the single stack from the right side of the bipolar plate, or it can flow into the single stack from the right side of the bipolar plate and flow out of the single stack from the left side of the bipolar plate, but it is necessary to ensure that the coolant inlet of each single stack is on the left side of the single stack and the coolant outlet is on the right side of the single stack, or the coolant inlet of each single stack is on the right side of the single stack and the coolant outlet is on the left side of the single stack, so that the fluid flow path of each single stack is the same, which can make the fluid flow of each single stack uniform, thereby further making the performance of each single stack close.
[0058] Since this embodiment chooses to optimize the spliced stack model in the simulation, it is necessary to ensure that the simulation conditions are as close to the actual conditions as possible, so that the fluid flow rate detected during the simulation is closer to the actual flow rate, so that the uniformity of the manifold fluid flow rate can be judged more accurately. To this end, the preferred step S2 of this embodiment includes: during the flow of the fluid in the manifold, the total pressure drop of the fluid between the first port and the second port in the open state is maintained at a preset pressure drop; and the fluid flow rate of the second port in the open state is obtained. Among them, the preset pressure drop is the total pressure drop of the fluid between the first port and the second port when the stack is actually working. In this way, the fluid flow rate detected during the simulation can be closer to the actual flow rate, so that the uniformity of the manifold fluid flow rate can be judged more accurately.
[0059] In this embodiment, the cooling liquid manifold inlet pipe and the cooling liquid manifold outlet pipe are used as examples for simulation experiments. The total pressure drop of the fluid between the first port and the second port in the open state is fixed to 50 kPa. The cooling liquid uses incompressible 80°C water. The simulation data obtained are: the cooling liquid flow rates of the three second ports of the cooling liquid manifold inlet pipe are 2.63 kg / s, 2.61 kg / s, and 2.81 kg / s respectively. The average flow rate of the three second ports is (2.63+2.61+2.81) / 3=2.68 kg / s. The flow unevenness of the three second ports is The coolant flow rates of the three second ports of the coolant manifold outlet are 2.4kg / s, 2.46kg / s and 2.61kg / s respectively, and the average flow rate of the three second ports is (2.4+2.46+2.61) / 3=2.49kg / s. The flow unevenness of the three second ports is 3.57%, 1.04% and 4.66% respectively, all lower than 5%, indicating that the coolant flow rate of the coolant manifold outlet is uniform.
[0060] like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment also provides a manifold fluid flow equalization device for a stack type fuel cell stack, comprising:
[0061] A manifold inlet and outlet control module, used to open the first port and open each second port in turn, with only one second port open at a time and the other second ports closed;
[0062] A fluid flow acquisition module, used for acquiring the fluid flow of the second port in an open state during the flow of the fluid in the manifold;
[0063] a non-uniformity determination module, for determining the flow non-uniformity of each second port according to a plurality of fluid flow rates of the plurality of second ports;
[0064] A manifold optimization module is used to optimize the manifold if at least one flow non-uniformity is higher than a preset threshold until each flow non-uniformity is lower than the preset threshold.
[0065] The manifold is any one of an air manifold inlet pipe, an air manifold outlet pipe, a hydrogen manifold inlet pipe, a hydrogen manifold outlet pipe, a coolant manifold inlet pipe and a coolant manifold outlet pipe.
[0066] Among them, the unevenness determination module is also used to: obtain the average flow of multiple fluid flows and the flow difference between each fluid flow and the average flow; determine the ratio of the flow difference corresponding to the second port to the average flow as the flow unevenness of the second port.
[0067] The manifold fluid flow equalization device of the spliced fuel cell stack of the present embodiment first opens the first port of the manifold and opens each second port in turn. During the flow of the fluid in the manifold, the fluid flow of the second port in the open state is obtained, thereby realizing the detection of the fluid flow of the second port; based on the multiple fluid flow rates of the multiple second ports, the flow unevenness of each second port is determined. If at least one flow unevenness is higher than a preset threshold, indicating that the fluid flow of the manifold is uneven, the manifold is optimized until each flow unevenness is lower than the preset threshold. In this way, the manifold can be optimized when the fluid flow of the manifold is uneven, so that the fluid flow of the manifold can be made uniform, which is conducive to ensuring that the performance of each single stack is similar.
[0068] Furthermore, the fluid inlet of each single stack in the assembled fuel cell stack is at the same position on the single stack, and the fluid outlet is at the same position on the single stack. In this way, the fluid flow path of each single stack is the same, which can make the fluid flow of each single stack uniform, thereby further making the performance of each single stack close.
[0069] Furthermore, the fluid flow acquisition module is also used to: when the fluid flows in the manifold, keep the total pressure drop of the fluid between the first port and the second port in the open state at a preset pressure drop; and acquire the fluid flow of the second port in the open state. In this way, the fluid flow detected during simulation can be closer to the actual flow, so that the uniformity of the manifold fluid flow can be judged more accurately.
[0070] Based on the same inventive concept as the method for equalizing the manifold fluid flow of a spliced fuel cell stack described above, this embodiment also provides an electronic device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the program, the steps of any one of the methods for equalizing the manifold fluid flow of a spliced fuel cell stack described above are implemented.
