Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electrolytic cells, and in particular to an electrolytic cell visualization tooling, an electrolytic cell visualization testing system and a testing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] When the PEM electrolyzer is in operation, a large number of bubbles will be generated in the reaction zone. When the bubbles cannot be effectively discharged from the reaction zone of the PTL electrolyzer, the bubbles will cover the active points in the reaction zone, resulting in a decrease in reaction efficiency and an increase in local voltage loss. Therefore, it is necessary to know where bubbles are likely to accumulate in the designed electrolyzer in order to improve the design. Usually, the visualization system of the PEM electrolyzer is designed for the flow channel type electrolyzer. This type of flow channel type electrolyzer usually uses etching technology to etch the flow channel on the collector plate / partition plate. When designing the visualization test tooling for this type of electrolyzer, it is often necessary to design the collector plate as a hollow structure, and then add a perforated transparent plate on the top to achieve the function of sealing and observing the water inlet. The disadvantage of this structure is that if side leakage occurs when water is entering, even if the seal is good and there is no leakage, water will spread all over the observation window, which is not conducive to the observation of experimental phenomena. In addition, since the reaction zone of the channelless pure PTL electrolyzer is laterally inlet, if this structure is directly used in the channelless electrolyzer, a cavity will be formed between the transparent plate and the collecting plate, and the water and gas transport state will change, which is inconsistent with the actual working conditions of the product.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an electrolytic cell visualization tool 10, which includes an end plate 1, a transparent plate 2, a hollow current collecting plate 3, a staggered straight-through laminated titanium mesh 4, a slot core assembly structure 5 and a fastener 6; the end plate 1 is a circular ring structure, and an observation through hole 11 is provided in the middle of the end plate 1, and the edge of the end plate 1 is sealed with the transparent plate 2, and a protruding structure 21 is provided in the middle of one side of the transparent plate 2 away from the end plate 1, and the protruding structure 21 is arranged corresponding to the observation through hole 11, and the side of the transparent plate 2 away from the end plate 1 is connected to the hollow The hollow collecting plate 3 is sealed and connected, a hollow structure 31 is provided in the middle of the hollow collecting plate 3, the protruding structure 21 is inlaid and matched with the hollow structure 31, the staggered straight-through stacked titanium mesh 4 is arranged on the side of the hollow collecting plate 3 away from the transparent plate 2, the staggered straight-through stacked titanium mesh 4 is arranged corresponding to the hollow structure 31, the slot core component structure 5 is sealed and connected to the hollow collecting plate 3, and the fastener 6 passes through the edges of the end plate 1, the transparent plate 2, the hollow collecting plate 3 and the slot core component structure 5 in sequence to press the end plate 1 and the slot core component structure 5.
[0030] Among them, this embodiment is aimed at the lateral water inlet of the pure PTL type electrolytic cell without flow channel. The middle area of the end plate 1 of the traditional electrolytic cell tooling is hollowed out to form an observation hole 11 used as an observation window, and a transparent plate 2 is added between the end plate 1 and the collecting plate and sealed to each other to ensure the overall sealing. The process of generating bubbles and discharging them by the electrolysis reaction of water can be monitored visually in real time through the observation hole 11.
[0031] The end plate 1 is made of stainless steel, and the hollow current collecting plate 3 is made of TA2. TA2 is an industrial titanium with a single α phase. TA2 in the national standard corresponds to Gr2 in UNS, and the iron content is ≤0.30.
[0032] Furthermore, the edge of the end plate 1 is provided with a plurality of first water and air circular holes 12 arranged at intervals, and the edge of the transparent plate 2 is provided with a plurality of second water and air circular holes 22 arranged at intervals, and the second water and air circular holes 22 are arranged one-to-one with the first water and air circular holes 12.
[0033] Preferably, the first water-venting circular hole 12 and the second water-venting circular hole 22 are each provided with four, and the transparent plate 2 is made of a highly transparent material, such as PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate, organic glass, acrylic), to minimize the refraction loss of light and ensure high visibility, so as to realize the observation of the evolution process of bubble generation, aggregation, and breakage during the electrolysis process. The transparent plate 2 can ensure a clear observation effect and precision at the same time.
[0034] Preferably, the fasteners 6 are eight bolts, and eight bolt holes are provided at the edges of the end plate 1, the transparent plate 2, the hollow current collecting plate 3 and the slot core assembly structure 5. The end plate 1 can prevent the transparent plate 2 from being directly fixed with the bolts, so that the stress distribution on the transparent plate 2 is more uniform, the stress concentration is reduced, and the service life is increased; in addition, another benefit is that the thickness of the transparent plate 2 is reduced while the strength of the transparent plate 2 is ensured. The thinner the transparent plate 2 is, the clearer the overall observation effect is.

The protruding structure 21 is inlaid with the hollow structure 31 to ensure conductivity while preventing gas and liquid from leaking inside the field of view and affecting the observation effect, greatly reducing the possibility of lateral leakage in the observation area and the possibility of adversely affecting the observation effect. At the same time, it is different from the visual design of the flow channel type electrolytic cell, forming a completely closed structure to simulate the real working condition, avoiding the cavity between the current collecting plate and the transparent plate 2, and simulating the real working condition of the non-flow channel type electrolytic cell.
[0039] Furthermore, the electrolytic cell visualization tooling 10 also includes a second sealing rubber ring 8, and a second sealing groove 23 for accommodating the second sealing rubber ring 8 is provided on the side of the transparent plate 2 facing the hollow collecting plate 3, and the second sealing groove 23 is arranged around the second water outlet and exhaust circular hole 22, and the second sealing rubber ring 8 is arranged between the hollow collecting plate 3 and the transparent plate 2.
