Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular to a fuel cell membrane electrode cross-leakage detection method, a computer and a readable storage medium. Background Art
[0002] The proton exchange membrane fuel cell is a power generation device that generates electricity through the electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen. It has many advantages such as high energy conversion efficiency, environmental friendliness, and low noise. The membrane electrode is the core component of the entire fuel cell system, and its airtightness will affect the performance, life, and even safety of the fuel cell system. At present, the airtightness of the membrane electrode is measured by a flow meter to determine whether the entire stack has abnormal leakage. The reliability is low and the abnormal membrane electrode cannot be accurately located. The existing technology places the fuel cell stack on an airtight detection device, closes the anode outlet and the cathode inlet, installs a flow meter at the cathode outlet, passes gas into the anode, and applies a certain back pressure. After stabilization, the flow value at the cathode outlet is measured as the total leakage of the entire stack of membrane electrodes. If you want to diagnose whether the leakage of a single membrane electrode is abnormal, you need to detect the leakage amount on a single piece.
[0003] However, existing membrane electrode leakage diagnosis methods usually require specific equipment, and the entire stack needs to be placed on specific airtight detection equipment for leakage detection, which is costly. There are usually many membrane electrode sheets in the stack. If one or a few sheets have abnormal leakage problems, or the leakage amount is small, there is a risk that the airtight detection of the entire stack will not identify the abnormal leakage problem. When the entire stack has abnormal leakage and the abnormal membrane electrode sheet needs to be screened, the abnormal membrane electrode sheet cannot be accurately located, and multiple tests are usually required to determine the problematic sheet, which is inefficient.
[0004] Therefore, a more convenient, reliable and accurate method for membrane electrode leakage diagnosis is urgently needed. Summary of the invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a more convenient, reliable and accurate membrane electrode leakage diagnosis method, computer and readable storage medium.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the first technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0007] A fuel cell membrane electrode cross-leakage detection method, comprising:
[0008] After the stack runs at the rated point for time t1, it is de-loaded to current I, and runs stably at the air overload factor m1 for time t2, and continues to run at the preset air overload factor m2, where m1<m2;
[0009] Monitor the voltage change within the time period t2, and record the minimum voltage Vmin of each single piece and the voltage drop slope ki of each single piece during the stable operation time t2; determine whether the membrane electrode is abnormal based on the minimum voltage Vmin of each single piece and the voltage drop slope ki of each single piece, and the judgment criteria are v and k;
[0010] If Vmin < v or ki > k, it is determined that there is a leakage abnormality in the membrane electrode; locate the position of the abnormal membrane electrode through the pre-stored inspection system number.
[0011] Preferably, the t1 is 8 - 12 min.
[0012] Preferably, the I is 25 - 35 A.
[0013] Preferably, the m1 is 2 - 3.
[0014] Preferably, the m2 is 8 - 12.
[0015] Preferably, the t2 is 2 - 4 min.
[0016] Preferably, the v = 0 V.
[0017] Preferably, the k = 40 - 60 mv / s.
[0018] To solve the above technical problems, the second technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0019] A computer includes a processor and a memory;
[0020] The memory is used to store computer instructions, and the processor is used to run the computer instructions stored in the memory to implement the above fuel cell membrane electrode string leakage detection method.
[0021] To solve the above technical problems, the third technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0022] A computer-readable storage medium stores one or more programs, and the one or more programs can be executed by one or more processors to implement the above fuel cell membrane electrode string leakage detection method.
[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: when operating at a higher air overload coefficient m2, the voltage will gradually decrease. By obtaining the minimum voltage Vmin and the voltage drop slope ki of each single cell, it can be determined whether the membrane electrode is abnormal; no additional equipment, tooling, components, etc. are required, which is fast and convenient; in the fuel cell stack test bench or vehicle application terminal, it can be diagnosed by monitoring the voltage change through the inspection system, which is more convenient; all abnormal membrane electrodes can be diagnosed by one detection, which is more efficient; through the inspection system number, the specific position of the abnormal membrane electrode in the stack can be accurately located, with higher efficiency; different from the prior art where increasing the temperature is used to detect abnormal membrane electrodes, which will increase the risk of membrane series leakage; and also different from the prior art where adjusting the hydrogen overload coefficient is used to detect abnormal membrane electrodes, which will increase the risk of membrane electrode reversal, so it is safer.
