Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of fluid compression mechanical system, and relates to a multi-source real-time judgment method for surge boundary of a fuel cell air compressor. BACKGROUND

[0002] The fuel cell air compressor plays a vital role in the fuel cell system, which is mainly responsible for compressing the air entering the fuel cell stack to provide sufficient pressure and flow for the cathode of the stack to ensure that the chemical reaction of the fuel cell can proceed efficiently, and its performance directly affects the performance and life of the entire fuel cell system. Among them, the centrifugal air compressor has the advantages of light weight, simple structure, high pressure ratio, easy maintenance, etc., and is the most widely used form of fuel cell air compressor. However, the centrifugal air compressor also has some obvious shortcomings, such as the surge problem, and the existence of the surge line puts higher requirements on the optimal control of the air compressor.

[0003] When the centrifugal air compressor is at a certain speed, the air flow is reduced to below a certain value, the work becomes unstable, the airflow pulsates strongly, causing the entire air compressor to vibrate violently, and even causing damage, and emitting a sharp periodic noise, which is called surge. The surge phenomenon is extremely harmful to the air compressor and even the entire fuel cell system, and in severe cases, it can cause damage to the air compressor and even threaten personnel safety. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately demarcate the surge boundary during performance testing.

[0004] When testing the performance of the fuel cell air compressor, it is necessary to detect the surge in real time according to the working condition and demarcate the surge boundary, but most of the current performance tests are still manually operated, and the judgment of the surge also relies on the experience of the test personnel, which has a large error and uncertainty; the existing recognition algorithm also has the problem of not being able to balance speed and accuracy, and when encountering sensor failure, changes in environmental factors, or other non-surge failures of the air compressor, etc., it is very likely to cause the pre-designed detection algorithm to fail, misjudge the occurrence of surge, and sacrifice a certain accuracy. In order to improve the accuracy, more complex algorithms are designed to ensure the accuracy of surge recognition, but complex algorithms bring greater computational load, and detection speed cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, in order to balance speed and accuracy, the dimension of the information needs to be increased, which will bring information redundancy, which can be used to eliminate uncertainty. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide a multi-source real-time judgment method for the surge boundary of a fuel cell air compressor, which can realize online monitoring of the surge of the fuel cell air compressor, improve the real-time performance and accuracy of the surge recognition of the air compressor, and improve the accuracy of the surge boundary test of the air compressor.

Sensors are arranged on double-wire flow meters at the air compressor inlet, wherein the tail probe of the temperature sensor is arranged at the center of the flow meter and faces the air compressor inlet, and the air compressor inlet temperature, pressure and current signals are measured respectively. During the operation of the fuel cell system, the surge boundary of the air compressor is gradually approached by changing the flow and pressure ratio of the air compressor, and the inlet temperature, pressure and current signals of the air compressor are dynamically collected to realize the collection of surge signals.

[0009] S2: Due to the influence of instrument measurement error, environmental factors, electromagnetic interference and signal transmission process during the test, high-frequency noise is generated, which affects the accuracy of signal analysis and processing. The original signals of the current and the inlet pressure are subjected to first-order low-pass filtering processing, and the inlet temperature signal is not processed, so as to obtain the current and the inlet pressure signals subjected to first-order low-pass filtering and reduce the influence of high-frequency noise.

[0010] S2.1: According to the surge signal of the compressor measured in step 1, a complete surge waveform data is intercepted, a complete surge waveform data is defined as consisting of m sampling points, and then an m-dimensional signal vector is formed.

[0011]

[0012] Wherein, s(0), s(1), …, s(m-1) are the values of the m sampling points contained in a complete surge signal waveform.

[0013] S2.2: The original signals of the current and the inlet pressure are subjected to first-order low-pass filtering processing by using a first-order low-pass filter shown in the following formula to obtain the current signal and the inlet pressure signal subjected to first-order low-pass filtering.

[0014] y n =ax n +(1-a)y n-1

[0015] Wherein, y n is the output value of this filtering, y n-1 is the output value of the last filtering, x n is the sampling value, T s is the sampling period, unit: second, f c is the cut-off frequency, unit: hertz, and a is in the range of [0, 1].

[0016] S3: Constructing a surge variance for characterizing the degree of surge fluctuation, respectively calculating the surge variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals within each time window, making the calculation of the surge variance more localized, and improving the recognition accuracy of the surge.

The temperature rise value ΔT within the time window is obtained by subtracting the temperature at the beginning of the time window from the temperature at the end of the time window.

[0017] S3.1: When the surge occurs, the air compressor inlet pressure and current will produce a larger surge fluctuation, and the surge variance is introduced to characterize the degree of surge fluctuation. The calculation formula of the surge variance is:

[0018]

[0019] Wherein, c i is the sampling value at time i, m is the number of sampling points in the preset time period, is the average value of the sampling data in this period.

[0020] Select the time window, and the range of each variance statistics m is determined by the length of the time window. The window is a signal range size used for surge variance calculation, that is, the surge variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals within each time window is calculated, making the calculation of the surge variance more localized, and improving the recognition accuracy of the surge.

[0021] S3.2: The moving time window length ΔX is determined according to the sampling frequency set by the filter

[0022]

[0023] Wherein, f is the signal sampling frequency, and m is the number of sampling points contained in a complete surge waveform data.

[0024] S3.3: According to 3.1, the variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals within the time window is calculated, respectively, to obtain the air compressor pressure signal surge variance and the current signal surge variance, that is, the fluctuation characteristics of the air compressor pressure and current signals are obtained.

[0025] S3.4: The temperature signal will not fluctuate obviously when the surge occurs, but there will be a significant temperature rise phenomenon, therefore, the temperature rise value within the time window is calculated, wherein ΔT=T2-T1, T1 represents the temperature at the beginning of the time window, and T2 represents the temperature at the end of the time window.

[0026] S4: According to step S3, the pressure surge variance and the current signal surge variance of the air compressor when the surge occurs at different rotating speeds are measured respectively, and the rotating speed-threshold value relationship of the pressure signal and the current signal is obtained by polynomial fitting. At different rotating speeds, the corresponding pressure signal variance threshold M p and the current signal variance threshold M I for judging whether the surge occurs are obtained. T A fixed temperature threshold M n is set to judge whether the surge occurs.

[0027] S4.1: The threshold value is related to the rotating speed. The greater the rotating speed, the higher the corresponding threshold value should be. In the early performance test stage, the pressure variance and the current variance when the surge occurs at different rotating speeds are measured respectively, and there is a unique polynomial L 2 (x) = b0 + b1x + b2x n +…+b n x n , so that L j (x j ) = y j (j = 1, 2, …, n)

[0043] To better illustrate the purpose and advantages of the present invention, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0044] Example 1:

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses a multi-source real-time judgment method for surge boundary of fuel cell air compressor, and the specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0046] S1: A surge test was conducted on the fuel cell air compressor control platform, and the compressor inlet pressure, inlet temperature, and motor current were collected. Sensors were arranged on the nylon flow meter at the air compressor inlet, with the tail probe of the temperature sensor positioned at the center of the flow meter, facing the air compressor inlet. The air compressor inlet temperature, pressure, and current signals were measured respectively. During the operation of the fuel cell system, the air compressor's flow rate and pressure ratio were changed to gradually approach the surge boundary of the air compressor, and the air compressor inlet temperature, pressure, and current signals were dynamically collected at a sampling frequency of f = 100Hz to achieve surge signal acquisition.

[0047] S2: Due to instrument measurement errors, environmental factors, electromagnetic interference, and the influence of signal transmission during testing, high-frequency noise is generated, affecting the accuracy of signal analysis and processing. The raw inlet pressure and current signals are subjected to a first-order low-pass filter, while the inlet temperature signal remains unprocessed. This yields the first-order low-pass filtered current and inlet pressure signals. The inlet pressure signal is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the inlet current signal is as follows Figure 3 As shown, the inlet temperature signal is as follows: Figure 4 As shown.

[0048] S2.1: According to the compressor surge signal measured in step 1, a complete surge waveform data is intercepted, and a complete surge waveform data is defined by 50 sampling points, then a 50-dimensional signal vector is formed

[0049]

[0050] Wherein, s(0), s(1), …, s(49) are the values of the 50 sampling points contained in a complete surge signal waveform.

[0051] S2.2 The first-order low-pass filter shown in the following formula is used to perform first-order low-pass filtering on the original signals of the inlet temperature and pressure, and the first-order low-pass filtered inlet temperature signal and inlet pressure signal are obtained.

[0052] y n = ax n +(1-a)y n-1

[0053] Wherein, y n is the output value of this filtering, y n-1 is the output value of the last filtering, x n is the sampling value, T s is the sampling period, unit is second, f c is the cut-off frequency, unit is hertz.

[0054] T s = 0.01s, f c = 275Hz, a = 0.054 is calculated.

[0055] S3: Constructing a surge variance for representing the degree of surge fluctuation, calculating the surge variance of the air compressor pressure and current signal in each time window, making the calculation of the surge variance more localized, and improving the recognition accuracy of the surge. The length of the moving time window ΔX is determined according to the sampling frequency set by the filter. The air compressor pressure and current signal variance is calculated in the moving time window, respectively, to obtain the air compressor pressure signal surge variance S P and the current signal surge variance S I , that is, the fluctuation characteristics of the air compressor pressure and current signal. The temperature rise value ΔT in the time window is obtained by subtracting the temperature at the beginning of the time window from the temperature at the end of the time window.

[0056] S3.1: When surge occurs, the air compressor inlet pressure and current will produce large surge fluctuations, and the surge variance is introduced to represent the degree of surge fluctuation. The calculation formula of the surge variance is:

[0057]

[0058] wherein c i is the sampling value at time i, m is the number of sampling points in the preset time period, is 50, is the average of the sampling data in this period of time.

[0059] The appropriate time window is selected, and the statistical range m of each variance is determined by the length of the time window. The window is the size of the signal range used when calculating the surge variance, i.e. the surge variance is calculated for the air compressor pressure and current signals in each time window, so that the calculation of the surge variance is more localized, and the recognition accuracy of the surge is improved.

[0060] S3.2: Determine the length of the moving time window ΔX according to the sampling frequency set by the filter

[0061]

[0062] wherein f = 100 Hz, m = 50, and the length of the time window is calculated to be in the range of 1.5-2 seconds. In this experiment, the length of the time window ΔX = 1.5 s.

[0063] S3.3: According to 3.1, the variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals in the time window is calculated respectively, and the surge variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals is obtained respectively, as shown in Figure 5 , 6 , i.e. the fluctuation characteristics of the air compressor pressure and current signals are obtained.

[0064] S3.4: The temperature signal does not fluctuate significantly when surge occurs, but there is a significant temperature rise. Therefore, the temperature rise value in the time window is calculated, wherein ΔT = T2-T1, T1 represents the temperature at the beginning of the time window, and T2 represents the temperature at the end of the time window.

[0065] S4: According to step S3, the surge variance of the air compressor pressure and current signals when surge occurs at different speeds is measured, and the speed-threshold relationship of the pressure signal and current signal is obtained by polynomial fitting. At different speeds, the corresponding pressure signal variance threshold M p and current signal variance threshold M I for judging whether surge occurs are obtained according to the speed-threshold relationship. A fixed temperature threshold M T is set to judge whether surge occurs.

[0066] S4.1: The selection of the threshold is related to the speed. The greater the speed, the higher the corresponding threshold should be. In the early performance test stage, the pressure variance and current variance when surge occurs at different speeds are measured, and there is a unique polynomial L n(x) = b0 + b1x + b2x 2 +…+b n x n , so that L n (x j ) = y j (j = 1, 2, …, n)

[0067] where x j represents different rotating speeds, and y j represents variance values at different rotating speeds.

[0068] The function result after fitting of the pressure link is:

[0069] L(x) = 0.000563x 4 + 0.00132x 3 + 0.0024356x 2 + 0.0030659x + 0.002186

[0070] The function result after fitting of the pressure link is:

[0071] L(x) = 5 × 10 -7 x-0.001

[0072] The rotating speed-threshold value relationship of the pressure signal and the current signal is obtained, and at different rotating speeds, corresponding pressure signal variance threshold values M p and current signal variance threshold values M I for judging whether surge occurs are obtained.

[0073] S4.2: When surge occurs, the change of temperature affected by system vibration can be ignored, and a fixed temperature threshold value M T is set, and through multiple comparisons, the threshold value M T = 0.06.

[0074] S5: Real-time acquisition of the surge signal described in step S1 is performed by the sensor, the length of the time window is determined by step 2, the air compressor pressure surge variance, the current signal surge variance and the temperature rise value in the time window are calculated according to step S3; the air compressor pressure surge variance in the time window calculated in step S3 is compared with the pressure signal variance threshold value M p ; the current signal surge variance in the time window calculated in step S3 is compared with the current signal variance threshold value M I ; and the temperature rise value in the time window calculated in step S3 is compared with the temperature threshold value M TThe comparison is made; when at least two of the three parameters of the air compressor pressure surge variance, the current signal surge variance and the temperature rise value exceed the corresponding threshold, it is judged that the surge occurs, otherwise, the surge does not occur, that is, the multi-source real-time judgment of the fuel cell air compressor surge boundary is realized. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the current link has an alarm signal at the 4.8s, at this time the air compressor is in the normal regulation process, since the pressure and temperature links do not issue an alarm at this time, the redundancy combination module also does not issue an alarm signal, with the gradual closing of the valve opening, the pressure, current and temperature links issue an alarm in turn, and the redundancy combination module timely gives an alarm signal after the surge occurs.

[0075] The above specific description further details the purpose, technical scheme and beneficial effects of the application, and it should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the application and is not used to limit the protection scope of the application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the application should be included in the protection scope of the application.
