[0035] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0036] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 An ammonia cracking hydrogen production device according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a flow channel component 1.
[0038] The flow channel assembly 1 includes a flow channel plate 11 and a catalyst sheet 12. The flow channel plate 11 is provided with a plate inlet 111, a plate outlet 112 and at least two catalytic flow channels 113. The at least two catalytic flow channels 113 are connected in parallel between the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112. For example, Figure 1 As shown, the flow channel assembly 1 is preferably but not limited to being horizontally arranged, the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 are preferably but not limited to being arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, a plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 are connected between the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112, and the plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 are preferably but not limited to being arranged at intervals in the front-to-back direction so as to be connected in parallel between the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112.
[0039] The catalyst sheet 12 is disposed on the flow channel plate 11 and arranged side by side with at least two catalytic flow channels 113. Figure 3 As shown, the catalyst sheet 12 is preferably but not limited to being arranged horizontally, the catalyst sheet 12 is arranged on the flow channel plate 11 , and the catalyst sheet 12 is preferably but not limited to covering a plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 .
[0040] When the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device is in use, ammonia enters at least two catalytic flow channels 113 from the plate inlet 111 of the flow channel plate 11, and contacts the catalyst of the catalyst sheet 12 in the process of flowing through the catalytic flow channels 113, thereby being cracked to generate hydrogen and nitrogen, and the generated hydrogen and nitrogen are discharged from the plate outlet 112.
[0041] It is understandable that if the ammonia is not completely cracked in the catalytic flow channel 113, the gas discharged from the plate outlet 112 is mixed with residual ammonia that has not been cracked.
[0042] The ammonia cracking hydrogen production device of the embodiment of the present invention simultaneously cracks ammonia through at least two catalytic flow channels, thereby having a higher hydrogen production efficiency. At the same time, since the catalyst sheet and the flow channel plate have a simple structure and are easy to install and replace the catalyst sheet, the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device of the embodiment of the present invention has a simple structure and a low manufacturing cost.
[0043] In some embodiments, the catalyst sheet 12 includes a substrate and an ammonia cracking catalyst coating coated on the surface of the substrate.
[0044] The ammonia cracking catalyst coating is used to react with the ammonia flowing through the catalytic flow channel 113, so as to crack the ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen. The ammonia cracking catalyst coating is preferably but not limited to a Ru-Al2O3 catalyst.
[0045] The substrate is preferably, but not limited to, carbon paper or foamed metal foil, so as to be coated with an ammonia cracking catalyst coating.
[0046] In some embodiments, the flow channel plate 11 is preferably but not limited to being made of ceramic material, which is easy to process, low in cost, and resistant to high temperatures, acids and alkalis.
[0047] It is understandable that the flow channel plate 11 can also be made of metal, hard plastic, wood and other materials.
[0048] In some embodiments, the flow channel plate 11 is further provided with a branch channel 114 and a confluence channel 115. The branch channel 114 is connected between the plate inlet 111 and at least two catalytic flow channels 113, and is used to divert the ammonia provided by the plate inlet 111 to at least two catalytic flow channels 113. The confluence channel 115 is connected between the plate outlet 112 and at least two catalytic flow channels 113, and is used to converge the ammonia in at least two catalytic flow channels 113 to the plate outlet 112.
[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the flow channel plate 11 is also provided with a branch channel 114 and a confluence channel 115. The left end of the branch channel 114 is connected to the plate inlet 111, and the right end of the branch channel 114 is connected in parallel to multiple catalytic channels 113. The branch channel 114 is used to divert the ammonia provided by the plate inlet 111 so that the ammonia can evenly enter the multiple catalytic channels 113.
[0050] The left end of the confluence channel 115 is connected in parallel to a plurality of catalytic channels 113 , and the right end of the confluence channel 115 is connected to the plate outlet 112 . The confluence channel 115 is used to converge the gases discharged from the plurality of catalytic channels 113 and then supply them to the plate outlet 112 so as to be discharged from the channel assembly 1 through the plate outlet 112 .
[0051] It can be understood that, in other embodiments, a plurality of catalytic flow channels can also be directly connected in parallel between a plate inlet extending in a strip shape along the front-to-back direction and a plate outlet extending in a strip shape along the front-to-back direction.
[0052] In some embodiments, at least one end surface of the flow channel plate 11 is provided with a groove 116 , and a plurality of guide ridges 119 arranged side by side are provided in the groove 116 , and catalytic flow channels 113 are formed on both sides of each guide ridge 119 .
[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the first end and the second end of the flow channel plate 11 arranged along the thickness direction can both be provided with a groove 116, or a groove 116 can be provided at one end. Preferably, the first end of the flow channel plate 11 is provided with a groove 116, and the groove 116 is connected between the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112.
[0054] A guide rib 119 is provided in the groove 116. The guide rib 119 preferably, but not limited to, extends in the left-right direction. The guide rib 119 protrudes from the bottom surface of the groove 116. There are preferably multiple guide ribs 119, and the multiple guide ribs 119 are arranged at intervals in the front-to-back direction. A catalytic flow channel 113 is formed between two adjacent guide ribs 119. A catalytic flow channel 113 is also formed between the guide rib 119 located at the outermost side in the front-to-back direction and the side wall surface of the groove 116, thereby forming multiple catalytic flow channels 113 in the groove 116 through the guide ribs 119.
[0055] The widths of the multiple catalytic channels 113 along the front-to-back direction are preferably set to be the same. In other embodiments, the widths of the multiple catalytic channels 113 may also be different. The flow rate of ammonia in the catalytic channel 113 is adjusted by the width of the catalytic channel 113, so that the ammonia flows evenly in the multiple catalytic channels 113.
[0056] When the catalyst sheet 12 is installed on the flow channel plate 11, the catalyst sheet 12 covers the multiple catalytic flow channels 113 through the notches of the grooves 116, so that the ammonia gas contacts the catalyst sheet 12 and is cracked when flowing through the catalytic flow channels 113, and the structure of the flow channel assembly 1 is simple, which facilitates the installation and replacement of the catalyst sheet 12.
[0057] It can be understood that the guide ribs are not limited to being strips extending in the left-right direction. In other embodiments, the guide ribs are in the shape of wavy curves extending in the left-right direction, or, when the plate inlet and plate outlet are arranged tilted in the left-right direction, the guide ribs are in the shape of arcs or quarter circles.
[0058] In some embodiments, the protrusion height of the guide ridges 119 is lower than the depth of the grooves 116 , and at least a portion of the catalyst sheet 12 is disposed in the grooves 116 and abuts against a plurality of the guide ridges 119 .
[0059] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the height of the guide rib 119 protruding from the bottom surface of the groove 116 is lower than the depth of the groove 116, so that an installation space is formed between the end surface of the first end of the flow channel plate 11 and the end surface of the guide rib 119. The catalyst sheet 12 is entirely or partially embedded in the groove 116 along its thickness direction and abuts against multiple guide ribs 119, so that the catalyst sheet 12 covers multiple catalytic flow channels 113, ensuring that the ammonia gas is cracked when flowing through the catalytic flow channel 113, and at the same time facilitating the installation and replacement of the catalyst sheet 12.
[0060] It can be understood that the catalyst sheet is not limited to being embedded in the groove. In other embodiments, the catalyst sheet is disposed on the end surface of the first end.
[0061] In some embodiments, the groove 116 is divided into a diversion area 1161, a catalytic area 1162 and a confluence area 1163 from the plate inlet 111 to the plate outlet 112. The diversion area 1161 is provided with a plurality of dispersed diversion protrusions 117 to form a diversion channel 114. The confluence area 1163 is provided with a plurality of dispersed confluence protrusions 118 to form a confluence channel 115. The catalytic area 1162 is provided with a guide protrusion 119, and the catalyst sheet 12 is at least arranged in the catalytic area 1162.
[0062] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 are preferably but not limited to being arranged at intervals from left to right, the groove 116 extends in the left-right direction and is connected between the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112, and the groove 116 is divided into a diversion area 1161, a catalytic area 1162 and a confluence area 1163 from left to right, the left end of the diversion area 1161 is connected to the plate inlet 111, preferably, the plate inlet 111 is connected to the middle of the diversion area 1161 along the front-to-back direction. The right end of the confluence area 1163 is connected to the plate outlet 112, preferably, the plate outlet 112 is connected to the middle of the confluence area 1163 along the front-to-back direction.
[0063] A plurality of flow-dividing protrusions 117 are provided in the flow-dividing area 1161. The flow-dividing protrusions 117 protrude from the bottom surface of the groove 116. The flow-dividing protrusions 117 are preferably, but not limited to, cylindrical. The plurality of flow-dividing protrusions 117 are dispersedly arranged in the flow-dividing area 1161. In other words, the plurality of flow-dividing protrusions 117 are arranged at intervals in the flow-dividing area 1161. Thus, the flow-dividing area 1161 forms a flow-dividing channel 114.
[0064] A plurality of guide ribs 119 extending in the left-right direction and arranged at intervals in the front-back direction are provided in the catalytic zone 1162 , so that a plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 are formed in the catalytic zone 1162 through the guide ribs 119 .
[0065] All or part of the catalyst sheet 12 along the thickness direction is embedded in the catalytic region 1162 , thereby covering the plurality of catalytic channels 113 .
[0066] A plurality of confluence bosses 118 are provided in the confluence area 1163. The confluence bosses 118 protrude from the bottom surface of the groove 116. The confluence bosses 118 are preferably, but not limited to, cylindrical. The plurality of confluence bosses 118 are dispersedly arranged in the confluence area 1163. In other words, the plurality of confluence bosses 118 are arranged at intervals in the confluence area 1163. Thus, the confluence area 1163 forms a confluence channel 115.
[0067] When the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device is in operation, ammonia enters the diversion area 1161 from the plate inlet 111 and then flows to the right. The ammonia is blocked by the diversion protrusion 117 during the flow in the diversion area 1161, so that the ammonia is dispersed through multiple diversion protrusions 117, so that the ammonia evenly enters the multiple catalytic flow channels 113 in the catalytic area 1162. The ammonia moves in the catalytic flow channel 113 under the guidance of the guide protrusion 119 and contacts the ammonia cracking catalyst coating of the catalyst sheet 12 to crack and form hydrogen and nitrogen. The cracked gas enters the confluence area 1163 from the catalytic flow channel 113 and flows to the right. The gas is blocked by the confluence protrusion 118 during the flow in the confluence area 1163, so that the gas is gathered through multiple confluence protrusions 118, so that the gas enters the plate outlet 112.
[0068] The branch channel 114 , the catalytic channel 113 and the converging channel 115 are formed simultaneously by the groove 116 , so that the flow channel plate 11 is easy to process.
[0069] It can be understood that the cross-sections of the diverter boss and the converging boss are not limited to being circular. In other embodiments, the plate inlet is connected to the front end of the diverter area, and the plate outlet is connected to the rear end of the converging area. The cross-section of the diverter boss is an arc extending from the plate inlet toward the corresponding catalytic flow channel, and the cross-section of the converging boss is an arc extending from the corresponding catalytic flow channel toward the plate outlet.
[0070] It can be understood that the diverter and confluence channel are not limited to being formed by convex columns in the groove. In other embodiments, the diverter and confluence channel are grid-like grooves arranged at the first end, or the diverter and confluence channel are grid-like channels arranged inside the flow channel plate.
[0071] It can be understood that the catalyst sheet is not limited to being arranged in the catalytic zone. In other embodiments, the end face of the converging boss and the end face of the diverting boss are flush with the end face of the guide strip, and are all lower than the end face of the first end of the flow channel plate. The catalyst sheet is embedded in the diverting zone, the catalytic zone and the converging zone at the same time, and is offset against the converging boss, the diverting boss and the guide strip.
[0072] In some embodiments, along the direction from the plate inlet 111 to the plate outlet 112, the cross-section of the diverter area 1161 increases, the diverter bosses 117 are arranged in at least two rows arranged at intervals, and the number of diverter bosses 117 in the front row is less than the number of diverter bosses 117 in the rear row, and the cross-section of the confluence area 1163 decreases, the confluence bosses 118 are arranged in at least two rows arranged at intervals, and the number of confluence bosses 118 in the front row is less than the number of confluence bosses 118 in the rear row.
[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, the width of the diversion area 1161 along the front-to-back direction increases from left to right, so that the ammonia gas diffuses in the process of flowing from left to right in the diversion area 1161.
[0074] Multiple rows of diverter convex columns 117 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction in the diverter area 1161, and each row of diverter convex columns 117 includes a plurality of diverter convex columns 117 arranged at intervals along the front-back direction. In two adjacent rows of diverter convex columns 117, the number of diverter convex columns 117 in the left row is less than the number of diverter convex columns 117 in the right row. Thus, the diverter convex columns 117 are dispersedly arranged, and the ammonia flowing in the diverter area 1161 is ensured to be fully dispersed, so that the ammonia gas evenly enters the multiple catalytic flow channels 113.
[0075] The width of the confluence area 1163 along the front-to-rear direction decreases from left to right, so that the ammonia gas converges in the confluence area 1163 during the process of flowing from left to right.
[0076] Multiple rows of converging protrusions 118 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction in the converging area 1163, and each row of converging protrusions 118 includes a plurality of converging protrusions 118 arranged at intervals along the front-back direction. In two adjacent rows of converging protrusions 118, the number of converging protrusions 118 in the left row is greater than the number of converging protrusions 118 in the right row. Thus, the converging protrusions 118 are dispersedly arranged, and the ammonia flowing in the converging area 1163 is ensured to be fully collected and enter the plate outlet 112.
[0077] In some embodiments, the flow channel assembly 1 includes at least two stacked flow channel plates 11, a catalyst sheet 12 is provided between the catalytic flow channels 113 of two adjacent flow channel plates 11, and the plate inlets 111 of two adjacent flow channel plates 11 are connected, and the plate outlets 112 of two adjacent flow channel plates 11 are connected.
[0078] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the flow channel assembly 1 includes at least two flow channel plates 11 stacked in a vertical direction, and in two adjacent flow channel plates 11, a plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 are provided at the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11, a catalyst sheet 12 is provided between the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate 11, and the catalyst sheet 12 is located between the plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 at the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the plurality of catalytic flow channels 113 at the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11.
[0079] The plate inlet 111 of the upper flow channel plate 11 is communicated with the plate inlet 111 of the lower flow channel plate 11 , and the plate outlet 112 of the upper flow channel plate 11 is communicated with the plate outlet 112 of the lower flow channel plate 11 .
[0080] Preferably, the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 penetrate the flow channel plate 11 in the vertical direction, so that the plate inlets 111 of the stacked flow channel plates 11 are in communication, and the plate outlets 112 of the stacked flow channel plates 11 are in communication.
[0081] In other embodiments, the plate inlet and the plate outlet may also be grooves arranged on the end surface of the flow channel plate, the plate inlet forms an opening on the left side surface of the flow channel plate, and the plate outlet forms an opening on the right side surface of the flow channel plate, the plate inlet of the upper flow channel plate and the plate inlet of the lower flow channel plate are arranged opposite to and connected with each other, and the plate outlet of the upper flow channel plate and the plate outlet of the lower flow channel plate are arranged opposite to and connected with each other.
[0082] Ammonia is supplied to the catalytic flow channels 113 of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate 11 simultaneously through the plate inlet 111 connected to the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate 11, and the catalyst sheet 12 contacts the ammonia in the catalytic flow channels 113 of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate 11 at the same time to crack the ammonia, and the cracked gas is discharged through the connected plate outlet 112, so that the flow channel assembly 1 can crack more ammonia and has a higher ammonia cracking efficiency.
[0083] It is understandable that the catalyst sheet is limited to being arranged between the catalytic flow channels of two adjacent flow channels plates. In other embodiments, the flow channels plates are stacked in multiples, each flow channel plate has a catalytic flow channel at the top and is connected to the catalyst plate, and each flow channel plate has no catalytic flow channel at the bottom.
[0084] In some embodiments, the flow channel assemblies 1 are at least two stacked ones, the flow channel plate 11 includes a first end and a second end, the first end of the flow channel plate 11 is provided with at least two catalytic flow channels 113, the first ends of adjacent flow channel plates 11 in the flow channel assemblies 1 are relatively arranged, and a catalyst sheet 12 is provided between the first ends of adjacent flow channel plates 11, and in adjacent flow channel assemblies 1, the second end of the outermost flow channel plate 11 of one flow channel assembly 1 is relatively arranged with the second end of the outermost flow channel plate 11 of another flow channel assembly 1.
[0085] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the flow channel plate 11 includes a first end and a second end, and the flow channel assembly 1 includes two flow channel plates 11, the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11 are both first ends with a groove 116, and a catalyst sheet 12 is provided between the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11, and the top end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the bottom end of the lower flow channel plate 11 are both second ends.
[0086] Preferably, the groove 116 is divided into a diversion area 1161, a catalytic area 1162 and a confluence area 1163. The upper end of the catalyst sheet 12 is embedded in the catalytic area 1162 of the upper flow channel plate 11, and the lower end of the catalyst sheet 12 is embedded in the catalytic area 1162 of the lower flow channel plate 11. At this time, the catalyst sheet 12 also plays a role in positioning the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate 11.
[0087] The diversion area 1161 of the upper flow channel plate 11 is arranged opposite to and connected to the diversion area 1161 of the lower flow channel plate to divert a large amount of ammonia supplied from the connected plate inlet 111 so that the ammonia gas evenly enters the catalytic flow channel 113 of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate.
[0088] The confluence area 1163 of the upper flow channel plate 11 is arranged opposite to and connected to the confluence area 1163 of the lower flow channel plate to merge the gas discharged from the catalytic flow channels 113 of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the lower flow channel plate, and then discharge it through the connected plate outlets 112.
[0089] It is understandable that, in other embodiments, the catalyst sheet may also be disposed between the bottom surface of the upper flow channel plate and the top surface of the lower flow channel plate.
[0090] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the flow channel assembly 1 is preferably but not limited to being a plurality of flow channel assemblies 1 stacked in the vertical direction, and in two adjacent flow channel assemblies 1, the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 located below in the upper flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) is arranged relative to the top end of the flow channel plate 11 located above in the lower flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11).
[0091] Thus, ammonia is cracked simultaneously through the multiple flow channel components 1, so that the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device has a higher ammonia cracking efficiency.
[0092] It is understandable that the flow channel assembly is not limited to including two flow channel plates. In other embodiments, the flow channel assembly includes multiple flow channel plates, and catalyst sheets are provided between each adjacent flow channel plate. Each flow channel plate is provided with a catalytic flow channel on the end surface adjacent to another flow channel plate. In other words, among the multiple flow channel plates, the inner end surfaces of the two flow channel plates located on the outermost sides in the stacking direction are provided with catalytic flow channels, and the two end surfaces of the remaining flow channel plates are provided with catalytic flow channels.
[0093] In some embodiments, the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a heating component 2 , and the heating component 2 is used to heat the ammonia gas in the catalytic flow channel 113 .
[0094] The heating component 2 can be arranged on each flow channel plate 11 in the flow channel component 1, or on part of the flow channel plates 11 in the flow channel component 1. The heating component 2 can be arranged inside the flow channel plate 11, or on the surface of the flow channel plate 11.
[0095] The heating component 2 is used to release heat to heat the ammonia gas in the catalytic flow channel 113, so that the temperature of the ammonia gas can reach the required temperature of the cracking reaction.
[0096] It is understandable that, in other embodiments, the ammonia gas may be heated outside the flow channel assembly and then the heated ammonia gas may be supplied to the catalytic flow channel.
[0097] In some embodiments, the heating component 2 is disposed between adjacent flow channel components 1 .
[0098] like Figure 4 As shown, a heating component 2 is provided between adjacent flow channel components 1. In other words, in two adjacent flow channel components 1, a heating component 2 is provided between the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 located below in the upper flow channel component 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) and the top end of the flow channel plate 11 located above in the lower flow channel component 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11).
[0099] The ammonia in the catalytic flow channels 113 of two adjacent flow channel assemblies 1 is heated simultaneously by the heating component 2 to reduce energy consumption, simplify the structure of the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device, facilitate the installation of the heating component 2, and avoid interference between the heating component 2 and the catalyst sheet 12.
[0100] In some embodiments, the heating assembly 2 includes a heating element 21 and a temperature sensor 22 , and the heating element 21 and the temperature sensor 22 are both disposed corresponding to at least two catalytic flow channels 113 .

The second mounting groove at the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 located at the bottom in the upper flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) and the second mounting groove at the top end of the flow channel plate 11 located at the top in the lower flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) are arranged oppositely and connected to each other for mounting the same temperature sensor 22.
[0103] The heating element 21 and the temperature sensor 22 are both arranged corresponding to at least two catalytic channels 113. In other words, the heating element 21 and the temperature sensor 22 are arranged within the end surface projection area of the at least two catalytic channels 113 at the second end. Preferably, the heating element 21 and the temperature sensor 22 are arranged within the end surface projection of the catalytic zone 1162 at the second end.

[0106] The first sealing ring 3 prevents the ammonia gas in the catalytic flow channel 113 from leaking from between the first ends of adjacent flow channel plates 11 .
[0107] Preferably, the first sealing ring 3 surrounds the outer periphery of the grooves 116 that are arranged opposite to and connected to the two flow channel plates 11. In other words, the first sealing ring 3 surrounds the outer periphery of the connected branch flow channel 114, the catalytic flow channel 113 and the converging flow channel 115. The first sealing ring 3 also surrounds the outer periphery of the catalyst sheet 12 between the two flow channel plates 11. The first sealing ring 3 is used to further prevent the ammonia gas in the branch flow channel 114 and the converging flow channel 115 from leaking from the first ends of the adjacent flow channel plates 11.
[0108] Preferably, the end surface of the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 (i.e., the first end of the flow channel plate 11) and the end surface of the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11 (i.e., the first end of the flow channel plate 11) are against each other to provide sealing. At the same time, the end surface of the first end of the flow channel plate 11 is provided with a first sealing groove for installing the first sealing ring 3, and the first sealing ring 3 is embedded in the first sealing groove at the bottom end of the upper flow channel plate 11 and the first sealing groove at the top end of the lower flow channel plate 11.

[0110] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 penetrate the flow channel plate 11 in the up-down direction, and the first sealing ring 3 surrounds the outer periphery of the connected plate inlet 111, the groove 116 and the plate outlet 112. In other words, the first sealing ring 3 surrounds the outer periphery of the connected plate inlet 111, the branch channel 114, the catalytic channel 113, the confluence channel 115 and the plate outlet 112, so as to further prevent the ammonia gas in the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 from leaking from the first ends of the adjacent flow channel plates 11 through the first sealing ring 3.
[0111] In two adjacent flow channel assemblies 1, a second sealing ring 4 is provided between the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 located below in the upper flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) and the top end of the flow channel plate 11 located above in the lower flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11). The second sealing ring 4 preferably, but not limited to, surrounds the outer periphery of the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 at the same time, so as to prevent the ammonia gas in the plate inlet 111 and the plate outlet 112 from leaking from between the adjacent flow channel assemblies 1 through the second sealing ring 4.
[0112] Preferably, in two adjacent flow channel assemblies 1, the end surface of the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 located at the bottom in the upper flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) abuts against the end surface of the top end of the flow channel plate 11 located at the top in the lower flow channel assembly 1 (i.e., the second end of the flow channel plate 11) to provide sealing. At the same time, the end surface of the second end of the flow channel plate 11 is provided with a second sealing groove for installing the second sealing ring 4, and the second sealing ring 4 is simultaneously embedded in the second sealing groove at the bottom end of the flow channel plate 11 above the second sealing ring 4 and the second sealing groove at the top end of the flow channel plate 11 below the second sealing ring 4.
[0113] It can be understood that the second sealing ring is not limited to surrounding the periphery of both the plate inlet and the plate outlet.

The cracked gas enters the plate outlets 112 connected in sequence, and is then discharged through the shell outlet 53. Therefore, the ammonia cracking efficiency of the ammonia cracking hydrogen production device is high.
[0118] The housing 5 serves to fix and protect the plurality of flow channel components 1 and also serves to keep the ammonia gas warm.
[0119] Preferably, both the shell inlet 51 and the shell outlet 53 are provided with joints protruding from the outer wall surface of the shell 5 for connecting pipelines.
