[0030] In order to better explain the present invention and facilitate understanding, the present invention is described in detail below through specific implementation modes in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a water electrolysis hydrogen production device suitable for renewable energy volatility, the water electrolysis hydrogen production device comprises renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment, an electrolyzer 1, a first gas phase main pipe 21 for collecting the anode gas phase of the electrolyzer 1, a second gas phase main pipe 22 for collecting the cathode gas phase of the electrolyzer 1, and a controller; the electrolyzer 1 and the controller are both electrically connected to the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment, a first regulating valve 23 and a second regulating valve 24 are arranged in parallel on the first gas phase main pipe 21, a third regulating valve 25 and a fourth regulating valve 26 are arranged in parallel on the second gas phase main pipe 22, the caliber of the first regulating valve 23 is larger than the caliber of the second regulating valve 24, the caliber of the third regulating valve 25 is larger than the caliber of the fourth regulating valve 26, and the first regulating valve 23, the second regulating valve 24, the third regulating valve 25 and the fourth regulating valve 26 are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0032] The water electrolysis hydrogen production device configured in this way, by arranging the first regulating valve 23 and the second regulating valve 24 on the first gas phase main pipe 21, arranging the third regulating valve 25 and the fourth regulating valve 26 on the second gas phase main pipe 22, and connecting the first regulating valve 23, the second regulating valve 24, the third regulating valve 25 and the fourth regulating valve 26 to the controller, provides a structural basis for the controller to adjust the oxygen pressure, hydrogen pressure and pressure difference in the water electrolysis hydrogen production device according to the power supply fluctuation of the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment, so that the water electrolysis hydrogen production device can better adapt to the volatility of renewable energy power generation. Specifically, as an example, based on this structure, when the current of the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment rises rapidly (that is, the current change rate is greater than 10KA / S), the second regulating valve 24 and the fourth regulating valve 26 are fully opened to adjust the opening of the first regulating valve 23 and the third regulating valve 25, so as to maintain the preset pressure and pressure difference to adapt to the volatility of renewable energy power generation; when the current of the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment drops rapidly (that is, the current change rate is greater than 10KA / S), the first regulating valve 23 and the third regulating valve 25 are closed to adjust the opening of the second regulating valve 24 and the fourth regulating valve 26, so as to quickly reduce the pressure to adapt to the volatility of renewable energy power generation.

[0033] Preferably, the caliber of the second regulating valve 24 is 20% to 80% of the caliber of the first regulating valve 23, and the caliber of the fourth regulating valve 26 is 20% to 80% of the caliber of the third regulating valve 25. Providing the first regulating valve 23, the second regulating valve 24, the third regulating valve 25, and the fourth regulating valve 26 with such a caliber ratio can improve the regulation accuracy.

[0034] Preferably, the electrolytic water hydrogen production device suitable for renewable energy volatility also includes an anode gas-liquid separator 31, a cathode gas-liquid separator 32, an anode liquid circulation tank 41 and a cathode liquid circulation tank 42; the anode chamber outlet of the electrolyzer 1 is connected to the inlet of the anode gas-liquid separator 31, the gas phase outlet of the anode gas-liquid separator 31 is connected to the first gas phase main pipe 21, the liquid phase outlet of the anode gas-liquid separator 31 is connected to the liquid phase inlet of the anode liquid circulation tank 41, the gas phase outlet of the anode liquid circulation tank 41 is connected to the first gas phase main pipe 21, and the cathode chamber of the electrolyzer 1 The outlet is connected to the inlet of the cathode gas-liquid separator 32, the gas phase outlet of the cathode gas-liquid separator 32 is connected to the second gas phase main pipe 22, the liquid phase outlet of the cathode gas-liquid separator 32 is connected to the liquid phase inlet of the cathode liquid circulation tank 42, the gas phase outlet of the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 is connected to the second gas phase main pipe 22, the liquid phase outlet at the bottom of the anode liquid circulation tank 41 is connected to the liquid phase outlet at the bottom of the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 through at least one connecting pipe 5, and the anode chamber inlet of the electrolytic cell 1 and the cathode chamber inlet of the electrolytic cell 1 are respectively connected to the connecting pipe 5. In this way, the anode liquid can be separated into gas and liquid in the anode gas-liquid separator 31 and the anode liquid circulation tank 41, and the cathode liquid can be separated into gas and liquid in the cathode gas-liquid separator 32 and the cathode liquid circulation tank 42. The liquid phase outlet at the bottom of the anode liquid circulation tank 41 and the liquid phase outlet at the bottom of the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 are connected through the connecting pipe 5, which can ensure that the concentrations of the anode liquid and the cathode liquid returned to the electrolytic cell 1 remain consistent.

[0035] Preferably, the water electrolysis hydrogen production device also includes a first flow valve and a second flow valve.

[0036] Preferably, a first liquid level gauge is provided in the anode liquid circulation tank 41, and a second liquid level gauge is provided in the cathode liquid circulation tank 42, and both the first liquid level gauge and the second liquid level gauge are electrically connected to the controller. In this way, a structural basis is provided for stopping the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment when the liquid level difference between the anode liquid circulation tank 41 and the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 reaches a set limit value, and the safety risk of rapid increase in gas phase pressure caused by mutual channeling of anode and cathode gases or liquid phase blocking gas phase can be prevented, and the controller can trigger the interlock to automatically stop the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment.

[0037] Preferably, the electrolytic water hydrogen production device suitable for renewable energy volatility also includes a raw water tank 61 and a water replenishment pump 62, and the raw water tank 61 is connected to the anolyte circulation tank 41, the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 or the connecting pipe 5 through the water replenishment pump 62. In this way, the purpose of adjusting the concentration of the electrolyte entering the tank can be achieved by supplying water to the anolyte circulation tank 41, the cathode liquid circulation tank 42 or the connecting pipe 5 through the water replenishment pump 62.

[0038] Preferably, the connecting pipe 5 is connected to the anode chamber inlet of the electrolytic cell 1 and the cathode chamber inlet of the electrolytic cell 1 through the alkali liquid circulation pump 71 and the alkali liquid cooler 72 in sequence.

[0039] Preferably, the water replenishment pump 62, the alkali solution circulation pump 71 and the alkali solution cooler 72 are all electrically connected to the controller. Since the liquid flow rate into the electrolytic cell 1 is adjusted with the current of the electrolytic cell 1, the amount of liquid entering the electrolytic cell 1 will cause the fluctuation of the amount of liquid at the outlet of the electrolytic cell 1, thereby affecting the fluctuation of the liquid level of the self-flowing into the circulation tank at the outlet of the electrolytic cell 1. Therefore, the water replenishment pump 62 and the alkali solution circulation pump 71 are all electrically connected to the controller to provide a structural basis for adjusting the liquid flow rate into the electrolytic cell 1 and the amount of water entering the circulation tank according to the change of the current of the electrolytic cell 1.

In this way, water in oxygen can be removed by the first temperature variable washing device 81, and water in hydrogen can be removed by the second temperature variable washing device 82.

[0041] Preferably, the electrolytic water hydrogen production device suitable for renewable energy volatility also includes an oxygen-hydrogen analyzer for detecting the hydrogen content in oxygen and an oxygen-hydrogen analyzer for detecting the oxygen content in hydrogen. The oxygen-hydrogen analyzer is arranged on the first gas phase main pipe 21, and the hydrogen-oxygen analyzer is arranged on the second gas phase main pipe 22. The oxygen-hydrogen analyzer and the hydrogen-oxygen analyzer are both electrically connected to the controller. In this way, a structural basis is provided for stopping the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment when the hydrogen content in oxygen or the oxygen content in hydrogen reaches the set limit value, which can prevent the safety risks caused by impure oxygen in the first gas phase main pipe 21 and impure hydrogen in the second gas phase main pipe 22, and the controller can trigger the interlock to automatically stop the renewable energy power supply and distribution equipment.
