Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fuel cell technology, and in particular relates to a method for managing water in a fuel cell vehicle stack. Background Technology
[0002] The lifespan and cost of fuel cell stacks limit the development of fuel cell vehicles. To improve stack durability, it needs to operate in optimal condition. The water content inside the stack is difficult to measure and is affected by many factors. Excessive water content obstructs gas flow, while insufficient water content affects individual cell performance and increases impedance. Both excessive and insufficient water content lead to performance degradation. To ensure optimal stack operation, the internal water content needs to be regulated. Current technology has not yet determined the order in which factors affecting stack water content should be adjusted, making it difficult to guarantee optimal output performance while regulating humidity. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for water management of fuel cell vehicle stacks, which at least partially solves the problem that poor stack output performance is caused by inappropriate water content inside the stack.
[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of this disclosure provide a method for managing water in a fuel cell vehicle stack, including:
[0005] If the current hydrogen humidity is outside the range required for the current operating conditions, adjust the ejector return pressure to the ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for the current operating conditions.

[0010] When the current hydrogen humidity entering the reactor is greater than the upper limit of the hydrogen humidity required for the current operating condition of the reactor, the humidity of the hydrogen entering the reactor is reduced by adjusting the ejector inlet pressure down to the minimum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for that operating condition. When the current hydrogen humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit of the hydrogen humidity required for the current operating condition of the reactor, the humidity of the hydrogen entering the reactor is increased by adjusting the ejector inlet pressure up to the maximum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for that operating condition.
[0011] Optionally, when the infeed air humidity is outside the range required for the current operating conditions, the corresponding power consumption required to adjust the infeed air humidity to the range required for the current operating conditions is calculated, resulting in multiple power consumptions, including: calculating the power consumed by the water pump to adjust the water temperature and the power consumption of the air compressor to adjust the air flow or pressure.

For the efficiency of the drive motor, P cpout P is the outlet pressure of the air compressor. cpin Where γ is the inlet pressure of the air compressor, m is the specific heat coefficient of air, and γ is the specific heat coefficient of air. cp Air mass flow rate.
[0016] Optionally, compare multiple power consumption values and adjust the parameter with the lower power consumption to the required in-pile air humidity range for the current operating condition, including:
[0017] Adjusting parameters to minimize power consumption maximizes the fuel cell stack output power, P. stack =I*V―P cool —P cp Where I is the fuel cell current and V is the fuel cell voltage.
[0018] Optionally, compare multiple power consumption values and adjust the parameter with the lower power consumption to the required in-pile air humidity range for the current operating condition, including:
[0019] When the power consumption of the water pump is minimized, the water temperature is adjusted. When the current air humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit of the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the reactor, the water temperature is reduced to the minimum water temperature required for the current operating condition. When the current air humidity entering the reactor is greater than the upper limit of the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the reactor, the water temperature is increased to the maximum water temperature required for the current operating condition.
[0020] Optionally, compare multiple power consumption values and adjust the parameter with the lower power consumption to the required in-pile air humidity range for the current operating condition, including:
[0021] When the power consumption of the air compressor is minimized by adjusting the air flow rate, the flow rate is adjusted. When the current air humidity entering the stack is less than the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell stack, the flow rate is reduced to the minimum flow rate required for that operating condition. When the current air humidity entering the stack is greater than the upper limit of the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell stack, the flow rate is increased to the maximum flow rate required for that operating condition.
[0022] Optionally, compare multiple power consumption values and adjust the parameter with the lower power consumption to the required in-pile air humidity range for the current operating condition, including:
[0023] When the power consumption of the air compressor is minimized due to the adjustment of air pressure, if the current air humidity entering the stack is less than the lower limit of the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell stack, the pressure is increased to the highest pressure required for that operating condition. If the current air humidity entering the stack is greater than the upper limit of the air humidity required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell stack, the pressure is decreased to the lowest pressure required for that operating condition.
[0024] The fuel cell vehicle stack water management method provided by this invention regulates the humidity of the hydrogen entering the stack by adjusting the ejector return pressure. When adjusting the humidity of the air entering the stack, parameters with lower power consumption are prioritized to the parameters required for the current operating conditions. When the water content inside the stack is too high or too low, the order of adjustment of influencing factors is determined. This achieves the goal of maximizing the stack's output performance while maintaining a suitable water content inside the stack. Attached Figure Description

[0038] When the humidity of the in-flight air is outside the range required for the current operating conditions, calculate the corresponding power consumption required to adjust the humidity of the in-flight air to the range required for the current operating conditions, obtain multiple power consumption values, compare the values of the multiple power consumption values, and adjust the parameter with the smaller power consumption value to the range required for the current operating conditions.
[0039] Optionally, the step of determining the current hydrogen humidity entering the reactor and adjusting the ejector return pressure to the ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for the current operating condition when the current hydrogen humidity is outside the range required for the current operating condition includes:
[0040] Based on the stack water balance humidity characteristic curve, the upper and lower limits of the required hydrogen humidity for the stack are obtained, thus determining the range of required hydrogen humidity for the current operating conditions.
[0041] Optionally, the step of determining the current hydrogen humidity entering the reactor and adjusting the ejector return pressure to the ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for the current operating condition when the current hydrogen humidity is outside the range required for the current operating condition includes:

When the current hydrogen humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit of the hydrogen humidity required for the current operating condition of the reactor, the humidity of the hydrogen entering the reactor is increased by adjusting the ejector inlet pressure to the maximum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for the current operating condition.
[0043] Optionally, when the humidity of the incoming air is outside the range required for the current operating conditions, the corresponding power consumption required to adjust the humidity of the incoming air to the range required for the current operating conditions is calculated, resulting in multiple power consumptions, including: calculating the power consumed by the water pump to adjust the water temperature and the power consumption of the air compressor to adjust the air flow or pressure.
[0044] Optionally, compare multiple power consumption values and adjust the parameter with the lower power consumption to the required in-pile air humidity range for the current operating condition, including:
[0045] When the power consumption of the water pump is minimized, the water temperature is adjusted.

[0050] In a specific application scenario, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method includes the following steps:
[0051] S01: Start;
[0052] S02: Obtain the infeed humidity based on the infeed humidity sensor. Specifically, under different operating conditions of the fuel cell, the control system obtains the hydrogen infeed humidity based on the humidity sensor;
[0053] S03: Determine the upper and lower limits of the required hydrogen humidity for the fuel cell stack under the corresponding operating conditions [RH_an1, RH_an2]. Specifically, obtain the upper and lower limits of the required hydrogen humidity for the fuel cell stack from the fuel cell stack water balance humidity characteristic curve, and make a judgment on the humidity data obtained in S02;
[0054] S04: If the judgment result is yes, adjust the system operating parameters; if the judgment result is no, no action is taken. Specifically, if the current humidity is outside the range required for the current operating conditions of the fuel cell stack [RH_an1, RH_an2], water management inside the fuel cell stack is required, and the system operating parameters need to be adjusted; if the judgment result is no, it means that the current humidity is within the range required for the fuel cell stack [RH_an1, RH_an2], indicating that the fuel cell stack will not experience flooding or membrane drying, and no action is taken.
[0055] S05: Adjust the ejector inlet pressure to the maximum or minimum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for this operating condition. Specifically, if the current humidity is greater than the upper limit RH_an2 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell stack, the ejector inlet pressure can be adjusted to the minimum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for this operating condition. To reduce the humidity of the hydrogen entering the reactor, if the current humidity is lower than the lower limit RH_an1 required for the current operating conditions of the reactor, the ejector inlet pressure can be adjusted up to the maximum ejector inlet hydrogen pressure required for that operating condition. Increase the humidity of the hydrogen gas fed into the reactor. Within the required ejector inlet pressure range under this operating condition. Adjusting the pressure only changes the humidity of the hydrogen entering the stack; it does not consume the stack's output power.
[0056] S06: Determine the upper and lower limits of the required feed air humidity for the fuel cell stack under the corresponding operating conditions [RH_ca1, RH_ca2]. Specifically, obtain the upper and lower limits of the required feed gas humidity from the fuel cell stack water balance humidity characteristic curve, and then evaluate the humidity data obtained in S02.
[0057] S07: When the result is yes, calculate the following impacts of adjusting the influent air humidity to the range [RH_ca1, RH_ca2]: ① Power consumed by the water pump for adjusting the water temperature; ② Power consumption of the air compressor due to adjusting the flow rate; ③ Power consumption of the air compressor due to adjusting the pressure. Specifically, the power consumed by the water pump for adjusting the water temperature is: P cool =C p *ρ*V cool *(T out ―T in ), C p V is the specific heat capacity of the coolant, ρ is the density of the coolant, and V is the specific heat capacity of the cool cool T is the volumetric flow rate of the coolant. out T in The coolant temperatures at the fuel cell stack outlet and inlet; the power consumption of the air compressor resulting from adjusting the flow rate or pressure is: C pair T is the specific heat capacity of air. cp This refers to the inlet air temperature of the air compressor. For the efficiency of the drive motor, P cpout P is the outlet pressure of the air compressor. cpin Where γ is the inlet pressure of the air compressor, m is the specific heat coefficient of air, and γ is the specific heat coefficient of air. cp This refers to the air mass flow rate. If the result is negative, the adjustment ends.
[0058] S08: Compare the power consumption of parameters ①, ②, and ③, and prioritize adjusting the parameter with the lowest power consumption. Specifically, based on the calculation results of S07 and comparing their magnitudes, prioritize adjusting the parameter that results in the lowest power consumption, so that the stack output power: P stack =I*V―P cool —P cp At its highest, I is the fuel cell stack current, and V is the fuel cell stack voltage.
[0059] S09: Based on the comparison results of S08, if ① results in the least power consumption, the water temperature is adjusted first. If the current air humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit RH_ca1 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the water temperature is reduced to the minimum required water temperature for this condition. If the current air humidity entering the reactor is greater than the upper limit RH_ca2 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the water temperature is increased to the maximum required water temperature for this condition. If ② results in the least power consumption, the flow rate is adjusted. If the current air humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit RH_ca1 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the flow rate is reduced to the minimum required flow rate for this condition. If the current air humidity entering the reactor is greater than the upper limit RH_ca2 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the flow rate is increased to the maximum required flow rate for this condition. If ③ results in the least power consumption, if the current air humidity entering the reactor is less than the lower limit RH_ca1 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the pressure is increased to the maximum required pressure for this condition. If the current air humidity entering the reactor is greater than the upper limit RH_ca2 required for the current operating condition of the fuel cell, the pressure is reduced to the minimum required pressure for this condition.
[0060] S010: Determine whether the humidity of the feed air after parameter adjustment is within [RH_ca1, RH_ca2]. Specifically, obtain the upper and lower limits of the required feed gas humidity from the fuel cell stack water balance humidity characteristic curve, and evaluate the humidity data obtained in S02.
[0061] S011: If the judgment result is yes, the adjustment ends; if the judgment result is no, it indicates that the humidity still does not meet the requirements after performing the S09 operation, and the remaining parameters need to be further adjusted.
[0062] S012: Prioritize adjusting parameters with lower power consumption. Specifically, compare the power consumption resulting from adjusting the remaining two parameters to bring the in-flush air humidity to the range of [RH_ca1, RH_ca2], and prioritize adjusting the parameter with lower power consumption.
[0063] This disclosed fuel cell stack water management method addresses the issue of parameter adjustment when the humidity of the incoming air is outside the required range for current operating conditions. Based on theoretical calculations or humidity characteristic curves, the method assesses the current incoming hydrogen humidity. When the humidity is outside the required range, it first adjusts the ejector return pressure to the maximum or minimum required ejector inlet hydrogen pressure for the current operating conditions. Then, it determines whether the incoming air humidity is outside the required range, calculates the corresponding power consumption resulting from adjusting the incoming air humidity to the [RH_ca1, RH_ca2] range, compares the power consumption, and prioritizes adjusting the parameter with the lower power consumption to the maximum or minimum required value for the current operating conditions. This method maximizes the output performance of the fuel cell stack while ensuring the internal water content remains within a suitable range.
