Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention application relates to the field of hydrogen fuel refueling equipment technology, specifically to a hydrogen refueling gun heating mechanism and temperature control method for coping with low-temperature environments. Background Technology
[0002] With the gradual development and popularization of hydrogen energy, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles have become an important part of future new energy vehicles. However, under low temperature conditions, a sudden drop in temperature will cause water to condense and freeze. If no corresponding measures are taken, these ice blocks may block the connection between the hydrogen refueling nozzle and the vehicle interface. In addition, low temperature will make the lubricant more viscous, increasing the resistance to pulling out and making the device unable to be pulled out. Even the hydrogen refueling nozzle often encounters freezing problems during the refueling process, which may lead to the interruption of the operation of the hydrogen refueling station or even damage to the equipment, thereby affecting the user experience and the reliability of hydrogen refueling services.
[0003] Furthermore, existing heating devices typically only heat a specific part of the hydrogen refueling nozzle, failing to fully cover all areas requiring heating. This can result in some components of the nozzle malfunctioning at low temperatures, and localized heating can easily cause burns.

[0046] Unless otherwise specified, the mechanisms, unit modules, components, etc. involved in the following embodiments are all conventional commercially available products.
[0047] To better understand the technical solution of this application, the above technical solution will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0048] Example 1
[0049] This example discloses a hydrogen refueling gun heating mechanism for coping with low-temperature environments, including a pipeline heating unit 1, a pipeline circulation and venting unit 3, and a bendable gas heat exchange pipeline 2.
[0050] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pipeline circulation and venting unit 3 and the pipeline heating unit 1 are both installed inside the corresponding gun handle 4, and the gas heat exchange pipeline 2 is installed inside the corresponding gun head 6. See [link / reference]. Figure 3 The gas heat exchange pipeline 2 includes an inlet heat exchange pipeline 201 and an outlet heat exchange pipeline 202. The inlet heat exchange pipeline 201 and the outlet heat exchange pipeline are connected in the same way. The pipeline heating unit 1 includes a heating resistance wire 101 and a spiral heating pipeline 102. The heating pipeline 102 is connected to the inlet heat exchange pipeline 201. The heating resistance wire 101 is wound around the heating pipeline 102. The heating resistance wire 101 is electrically connected to the electrical control cabinet. Specifically, the power cord is led out from the electrical control cabinet and laid along the hydrogen refueling hose. One end of the power cord is connected to the electrical control cabinet, and the other end is connected to the electrical control cabinet via an aviation plug. The addition of connecting wires and the use of aviation plugs facilitate the disassembly and installation of the heating resistance wire. Furthermore, during the overall injection molding of the gun handle, the excessive length of the wiring does not cause operational difficulties. This device uses a 5V safety power supply drawn from the internal safety pin of the hydrogen dispenser as the heating power source for the circuit. This power supply heats the heating unit 1 within the gun handle 4. A grounding wire is installed at the heating power supply to effectively prevent accidents caused by leakage. The circulating nitrogen gas is heated in the heating pipe 102, and the heated nitrogen gas flows through the gas heat exchange pipe 2 of the gun head 6, thus achieving precise heating of the gun head 6.
[0051] The pipeline circulation and venting unit 3 includes a venting pipeline 302 and a gas inlet pipe 301. One end of the venting pipeline 302 is connected to the outlet heat exchange pipeline 202, and the other end extends to the outside of the gun handle 4. Venting is performed by the venting pipeline 302. One end of the gas inlet pipe 301 is connected to the heating pipeline 102, and the other end extends to the outside of the gun handle 4. Both the heating pipeline 102 and the gas heat exchange pipeline 2 are formed by one-time extrusion. Nitrogen gas is circulated by the gun head 6 and then vented by the venting pipeline 302 inside the gun handle 4, making it simple and easy to use. Gas is introduced through the gas inlet pipe 301 and discharged through the venting pipeline 302.
[0052] Both the heating pipe 102 and the gas heat exchange pipe 2 are made of copper pipe. The pipes are heated using copper pipe. Because copper pipe has good thermal conductivity, it can efficiently transfer heat to the hydrogen gun during the heating process. In addition, copper pipe has good corrosion resistance, which enhances the service life of the heating pipe 102 and the venting pipe 302.
[0053] The outer surfaces of both the pipeline heating unit 1 and the gas heat exchange pipeline 2 are covered with thermal insulation sleeves. These sleeves consist of an aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve and a natural rubber sleeve. The aluminosilicate ceramic fiber is used for insulation, while the natural rubber is used for overall injection molding. The use of natural rubber in the injection molding process provides insulation protection. Specifically, the heating pipeline 102 and the heating resistance wire 101 in the pipeline heating unit 1 are both wrapped with aluminosilicate ceramic fiber material for insulation, forming a first aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve to reduce heat loss during heating. The outer surface of the first aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve is cast with natural rubber material to form a first rubber sleeve. This first rubber sleeve not only provides insulation protection... The design provides protection and achieves one-piece molding, making assembly more convenient. The use of a first aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve and a first natural rubber sleeve ensures a tight connection between the heating resistance wire 101 and the heating pipe 102. During the heating process, this allows for better heat transfer to the heating pipe 102, thereby heating the heating pipe 102 and reducing heat loss. The gas heat exchange pipe 2 on the nozzle 6 is injection molded with natural rubber to form a second natural rubber sleeve, which allows for better heat conduction to the nozzle. The outer surface of the second natural rubber sleeve is covered with aluminosilicate ceramic fiber insulation material to form a second aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve, reducing heat loss to the outside and thus reducing energy consumption. This prevents the nozzle from freezing due to temperature changes. The use of the second aluminosilicate ceramic fiber sleeve and the second natural rubber sleeve allows the gas heat exchange pipe 2 to dissipate heat inward, concentrating the heat inward, thereby increasing the nozzle temperature.
[0054] The heating pipe 102 and the gas heat exchange pipe 2 are separate structures. An insulating sealing gasket 5 is installed between the heating pipe 102 and the gas heat exchange pipe 2. The installation of the insulating sealing gasket 5 ensures that there is no metal connection between the heating pipe 102 and the heat exchange pipe, thereby preventing personnel accidents. In addition, the insulating sealing gasket 5 has good sealing performance, making the connection more secure and maintaining good sealing performance. Compared with other connection methods, using the insulating sealing gasket 5 to connect pipes can simplify the installation process and make maintenance and replacement more convenient and quick.
[0055] A patch-type temperature transmitter is installed on the inner wall of the nozzle handle 4. This transmitter uses a 4-20mA current signal for transmission. When the temperature reaches the set temperature, the circuit automatically disconnects, thereby stopping the heating operation and ensuring temperature stability and accuracy. It also prevents overheating from damaging the hydrogen refueling nozzle. In addition, a 6mm² BVR yellow-green wire is installed on the hydrogen refueling nozzle. The BVR yellow-green wire is led out from the inlet end on the copper tube side and connected to the grounding busbar of the hydrogen refueling machine along the pipeline for electrostatic protection, ensuring the safety of the hydrogen refueling process.
[0056] When the above-mentioned hydrogen refueling gun heating mechanism is in use, the operator turns on the power and turns on the control button to start heating. The heating resistance wire 101 is supplied with 5V DC power from the electrical control cabinet to heat the heating device. Nitrogen gas is introduced through the gas inlet pipe 301. When the nitrogen gas flows through the heating pipe 102, it heats the internal air through heat exchange with the internal air. The gas enters the gas heat exchange pipe 2 in the gun head 6 through the heating pipe 102 to complete the heat exchange operation, and is discharged through the vent pipe 302, thus completing the overall heating of the hydrogen refueling gun.
[0057] Example 2
[0058] This example discloses a method for controlling the temperature of a hydrogen refueling gun in low-temperature environments. By calculating the heating heat and the heat required for nitrogen heat exchange, a suitable heating resistance wire 101 and nitrogen flow rate are selected, and pipeline design and heating heat exchange scheme design are carried out. In this embodiment, after detailed heat calculation, the nitrogen in the heating module can be heated to a maximum of 12-13℃. The nitrogen temperature is controlled within a reasonable range to prevent excessively high temperatures from damaging the circuit and device, and to keep the overall temperature within a safe range.
[0059] The following embodiment provides a detailed description of a method for controlling the temperature of a hydrogenation gun in low-temperature environments, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiment.
[0060] (1) Calculate the heating power of heating resistance wire 101.
[0061] In this embodiment, the heating resistance wire 101 is a 3.5Ω heating resistance wire, and the heating power of the heating resistance wire 101 conforms to the following formula:
[0062] P=U 2 / R=5 2 / 3.5=7.14(J / s); (Equation 1)
[0063] Where P is power, in J / s; U is voltage, in V; and R is resistance, in Ω.
[0064] (2) Calculate the heat required by heating pipe 102
[0065] Taking heating nitrogen to 12℃ as an example, the theoretical calculation process for heating nitrogen from 0℃ to 12℃ using heating resistance wire 101 is as follows:
[0066] The mass of nitrogen passing through heating pipe 102 per second:
[0067] V1=πR1 2 v = 3.14159 × 0.4 2 ×900=452.39(cm 3 / s); (Equation 2)
[0068] M1 = V1ρ1 = 0.566 (g / s); (Equation 3)
[0069] The amount of heat required per second in heating pipe 102:
[0070] Q1 = ΔT1M1C1 = 12 × 0.566 × 1.005 = 6.825 (J / s); (Equation 4)
[0071] Where V1 is the volume of nitrogen passing through per second, in cm³. 3 R1 is the radius of the heating pipe, in cm; v is the nitrogen flow velocity, in cm / s; M1 is the mass of nitrogen passing through per second, in g; ρ1 is the nitrogen density, in g / cm³. 3 Q1 is the required heat, in J / s; ΔT1 is the heating temperature difference, in °C; C1 is the specific heat capacity of nitrogen, in J / (g·°C).
[0072] The calculation results from Equations 1 and 4 show that selecting a 3.5Ω heating resistance wire can meet the heat required to heat nitrogen gas from 0℃ to 12℃, while allowing for some heat loss.
[0073] (3) Calculate the heat exchange of the natural silicone sleeve inside the gun head.
[0074] Considering the heat loss of nitrogen in the pipeline, the temperature of nitrogen reaching nozzle 6 is approximately 10℃. The heat exchange calculation process between 10℃ nitrogen and the natural silica gel sleeve inside the nozzle at -4℃ is as follows:
[0075] A=2πR2L=2×3.14159×0.003×2.5=0.047(m 2 );
[0076] Q2= ΔT2Ah=14×0.047×10=6.597(J / s);
[0077] Where A represents the contact area of the tube inside the natural silicone sleeve, in meters. 2 R2 is the radius of the pipe inside the natural silicone sleeve, in meters; L is the length of the pipe inside the natural silicone sleeve, in meters; Q2 is the heat exchange capacity, in J / s; ΔT2 is the contact temperature difference, in degrees Celsius; h is the surface convective heat transfer coefficient, in J / (m²). 2 ·s·℃).
[0078] (4) Calculate the heat required for the natural silicone sleeve inside the gun head.
[0079] In this embodiment, the calculation process for the amount of heat required to heat the natural silicone sleeve inside the -4℃ gunhead to 1℃ using 10℃ nitrogen gas is as follows:
[0080] Q3= ΔT3M3C3=5×100.379×1.5=752.84(J);
[0081] Where Q3 is the required heat in J; M3 is the mass of the natural rubber sleeve in g; ΔT3 is the temperature difference of the natural silicone sleeve in °C; and C3 is the specific heat capacity of the natural silicone sleeve in J / (g·°C).
[0082] (5) Calculate the heating time required for the natural silicone sleeve inside the gun head.
[0083] In this embodiment, the time required to heat the natural silicone sleeve inside the -4℃ gun head to 1℃ is:
[0084] T = Q3 / Q2 ≈ 114 (s); where T is the heating time in seconds.
