Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular to a fuel reforming device. Background Art
[0002] Solid oxide fuel cell stacks (SOFCs) can provide greater fuel flexibility by internally reforming hydrocarbon fuels such as methane, propane, ethanol, and natural gas at the anode. By internally reforming hydrocarbon fuels in SOFCs, efficiency improvements and simplified system integration can be observed. In order to better utilize the fuel compatibility and diversity of hydrogen production of SOFCs, an external reformer is generally used in combination with a fuel cell stack.
[0003] For example, the micro methane reforming hydrogen generator disclosed in the patent document with publication number CN210103451U includes a shell and multiple reaction tubes. The shell is provided with a heating chamber, a heating gas inlet and a residual gas outlet. The bottom of the heating chamber is provided with a preheating mixing chamber, and the top of the heating chamber is provided with a reforming gas mixing chamber; the reaction tube is arranged in the heating chamber. During the reforming operation, the combustion gas or hot air is introduced into the heating chamber through the heating gas inlet to heat the entire reactor, the combustion exhaust gas or the hot air after heat exchange is discharged from the residual gas outlet, methane and water vapor enter the preheating mixing chamber through the raw gas inlet, and the mixed gas is introduced into the reaction tube for reforming reaction; the hydrogen-rich gas after the reaction is mixed in the reforming gas mixing chamber and then flows out from the reforming gas outlet. By evenly distributing the reaction tubes in the heating chamber, the reformer can make full use of the heat of the combustion gas to evenly heat each reaction tube, avoiding problems such as reduced efficiency caused by uneven heat.
[0004] Although the reformer can achieve uniform heating of the reaction tube by burning exhaust gas or hot air after heat exchange to promote the reforming of methane fuel, the water vapor exhaust gas of the fuel cell needs to pass into a preheating mixing chamber to mix with the methane fuel before entering the reaction tube. A large amount of heat will be dissipated during the mixing process, making it difficult to effectively utilize the heat contained in the water vapor, resulting in a reduction in the reforming efficiency of the reformer, and further reducing the power generation efficiency of the fuel cell.

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0040] An embodiment of the present invention provides a fuel reforming device, which improves the reforming efficiency of the reformer by fully utilizing the heat of water vapor in the high-temperature exhaust gas generated by the fuel cell stack, thereby solving the technical problem that the fuel reforming device in the prior art is difficult to fully utilize the waste heat of water vapor, resulting in low reforming efficiency of the reformer, thereby reducing the power generation efficiency of the fuel cell.
[0041] The fuel reforming device provided in the embodiment of the present invention is used to produce hydrogen through reforming. By connecting the outlet of the reformer to the fuel cell, the hydrogen generated by the reforming is introduced into the fuel cell for use by the fuel cell.
[0042] like Figure 1~2 As shown, the fuel reforming device includes a shell 10, a fuel supply pipe 20 and a steam supply pipe 30. The shell 10 is provided with a reforming chamber 11 and a mixing chamber 12. The mixing chamber 12 is connected to the reforming chamber 11. The reforming chamber 11 is provided with a catalyst and reforms the fuel through the filled catalyst. The fuel supply pipe 20 is connected to the mixing chamber 12 and is used to introduce fuel into the mixing chamber 12. The steam supply pipe 30 includes an air intake unit 31 and an air outlet unit 32. The air intake unit 31 extends to the reforming chamber 11 and is provided for air intake. The air outlet unit 32 is connected to the air intake unit 31 and extends to the mixing chamber 12 and is provided for air outlet.
[0043] Specifically, the fuel reforming device is provided with a shell 10, a fuel supply pipe 20 and a steam supply pipe 30. The shell 10 is provided with a reforming chamber 11 and a mixing chamber 12. The mixing chamber 12 is connected with the reforming chamber 11. The mixing chamber 12 can be filled with a catalyst for reforming fuel to form a catalyst bed. The fuel supply pipe 20 is connected with the mixing chamber 12, and fuel can be introduced into the mixing chamber 12. The steam supply pipe 30 can introduce steam into the mixing chamber 12. After the steam and fuel are mixed in the mixing chamber 12, they enter the reforming chamber 11 filled with the catalyst and are catalyzed by the catalyst. The fuel is reformed. Since the steam supply pipe 30 is provided with an air inlet unit 31 and an air outlet unit 32, the air inlet unit 31 extends to the reforming chamber 11, and the air outlet unit 32 extends to the mixing chamber 12, so that the steam introduced can exchange heat with the catalyst bed of the reforming chamber 11 when flowing through the air inlet unit 31, thereby heating the catalyst bed, which can fully utilize the heat of the high-temperature steam, improve the reforming efficiency of the reformer, and further form more fuel and provide it to the fuel cell, thereby improving the power generation efficiency of the fuel cell.
[0044] In this embodiment, the fuel reforming device mainly utilizes a catalyst bed to reform fuel and steam under high temperature conditions to produce hydrogen for use in a fuel cell, wherein the fuel required for reforming can be methane, propane, ethanol and other hydrocarbon substances that can produce hydrogen through reforming.

Specifically, the high-temperature steam enters the heat exchange coil 312 through the steam air intake pipe 311, and during the flow of the heat exchange coil 312, heat is exchanged with the catalyst bed of the reforming chamber 11, so that the catalyst bed is added, and the heat contained in the high-temperature steam can be fully utilized. After the heat exchange, the high-temperature steam enters the air outlet unit 32 and is guided to the mixing chamber 12 through the air outlet unit 32.

Specifically, the heater 50 can heat the uniform heat chamber 43. Since the uniform heat chamber 43 is filled with nitrogen, the nitrogen can diffuse the heat uniformly to the uniform heat chamber 43, and finally be absorbed by the black chrome electroplating layer 411 of the inner heat absorbing surface 41, and then uniformly guided to the outer heat dissipation surface 42 through the annular limiting cylinder 40, and uniformly guided to the catalyst bed of the reforming chamber by the outer heat dissipation surface 42, so that the point heat transfer of the heater 50 is converted into the surface heat transfer of the outer heat dissipation surface 42, and the heat required for reforming is supplemented to the catalyst bed, and the temperature gradient in the height direction of the reforming chamber is reduced, so as to ensure that the catalyst bed is heated uniformly.
