Description

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of the economy and society, people have paid more and more attention to environmental protection. Although traditional thermal power generation still occupies a dominant position, new energy power generation methods such as wind power and photovoltaics have also developed rapidly, and their proportion in the power generation energy structure has continued to increase. Among the new energy power generation methods, wind power and hydropower are more common, while hydrogen power generation is relatively rare. However, hydrogen energy, as an ideal clean fuel, has the advantages of high energy density, high conversion efficiency, zero pollution and zero carbon emissions in power generation, providing a new option for the energy supply of new power systems. However, traditional hydrogen power generation methods have a relatively low energy conversion rate. For example, fuel cells directly convert the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxidants into electrical energy through electrochemical reactions. However, pollutants in the air and the purity of hydrogen will affect this, and the production cost of fuel cells is high. Similarly, the conversion efficiency of traditional hydrogen-fired power generation equipment is also low, and there is a problem of heat loss. Summary of the Invention

The produced hydrogen is treated in a gas-liquid separator and then filtered in a hydrogen purification unit; S02. The filtered and purified hydrogen is compressed by a compressor and stored in a hydrogen container. During power generation, the hydrogen flows into the combustion chamber of the gas turbine, where it is burned, driving the turbine to rotate, thereby driving the generator to generate electricity.

[0019] Example 1 This embodiment discloses a distributed hydrogen energy-based power generation system, such as Figure 1 、 2As shown, it includes a hydrogen production module 1, a hydrogen storage module 2, a hydrogen combustion power generation module 3 and a heat recovery power generation module 4. The hydrogen production module 1, the hydrogen storage module 2, and the hydrogen combustion power generation module 3 are connected in sequence through pipelines and solenoid valves. The heat recovery power generation module 4 is arranged in the hydrogen combustion power generation module 3 for recovering heat.

[0020] The hydrogen production module 1 includes a deionized water unit, a hydrolysis hydrogen production unit 11, a gas-water separator 12, and a hydrogen purification unit 13. The deionized water unit and the hydrolysis hydrogen production unit 11 are integrated together, and the gas-water separator 12 and the hydrogen purification unit 13 are connected in sequence. The deionized water unit is used to produce pure water. The hydrolysis hydrogen production unit 11 is integrated with a proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer for electrolyzing pure water to generate hydrogen. The gas-water separator 12 is used to separate hydrogen and water. The hydrogen purification unit 13 is used to purify the hydrogen. In this embodiment, the proton exchange membrane (PEM) adopts an electrolyzer hydrogen production method. The electrolyzer power is 10kW and the rated hydrogen production capacity is 2Nm 3 / h.

[0021] The hydrogen storage module 2 includes a compressor 21 and a hydrogen storage grid 22. The hydrogen storage module 2 is connected to the hydrogen production module 1 and is used to store the generated hydrogen. Specifically, the air inlet of the compressor 21 is connected to the air outlet of the hydrogen purification unit 13, and the air outlet of the compressor 21 is connected to the air inlet of the hydrogen storage grid 22.

[0022] The hydrogen storage module 2 adopts a gaseous hydrogen storage route with a hydrogen storage capacity of 5 kg. This embodiment adopts 15 hydrogen containers 22 and uses a compressor 21 for pressurized storage. The storage pressure can be adjusted according to actual needs and is generally controlled at 10 MPa. During actual use, when the hydrogen container 22 is overpressured, the control system automatically feeds back to the hydrogen production module 1 to reduce hydrogen production or stop hydrogen production.

[0023] The hydrogen combustion power generation module 3 includes a fuel mixing chamber, a gas turbine 32, a flue gas heat exchanger 33, and a generator. The fuel mixing chamber is connected to the combustion chamber of the gas turbine 32 and is integrated together. The flue gas heat exchanger 33 is installed in the exhaust channel of the gas turbine 32. The generator is fixedly connected to the gas turbine 32, and the gas turbine 32 drives the generator rotor to rotate to generate electricity.

[0024] The heat recovery power generation module 4 includes a semiconductor refrigeration power generation module 43 and an SMA power generation module 42. The semiconductor refrigeration module 43 and the SMA power generation module 42 are both integrated in the flue gas heat exchanger 33 for absorbing waste heat to generate electricity.

[0025] A hydrogen flow control module is also installed between the hydrogen storage module 2 and the hydrogen-fired power generation module 3. This module includes a cold dryer 31, a pressure reducing valve, a regulator, a flow controller, and a check valve. The cold dryer 31 is installed in the pipeline between the hydrogen container 22 and the gas turbine 32. It can further reduce the moisture content in the compressed hydrogen, that is, by lowering the dew point temperature, ensuring the dryness of the hydrogen and meeting the gas purity requirements. The pressure reducing valve, regulator, and flow controller are installed in sequence between the cold dryer and the fuel mixing chamber to control the flow and pressure of the hydrogen. The check valve is installed at the gas mixing chamber's air inlet to prevent gas backflow.

[0026] The combustion chamber of the gas turbine 32 is provided with a swirl disk, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the swirl disk reduces the propagation speed of the hydrogen flame through disturbance, guides the flame to spread around the combustion chamber, makes the combustion distribution more uniform, and thus improves the stability of the gas turbine 32.

[0027] The semiconductor cooling power generation module 43 primarily consists of semiconductor cooling panels. Multiple panels are installed within the flue gas heat exchanger 33. One side is exposed to waste heat from the flue gas, absorbing it and improving energy utilization. The other side is a closed space housing an evaporator. This receives the cooling energy generated by the SMA power generation module and creates a temperature differential across the semiconductor cooling panels. In actual use, a significant temperature differential forms across the semiconductor cooling panels. Due to the Seebeck effect, thermal energy flows from the high-temperature side to the low-temperature side of the panels, driving the movement of charge carriers. This movement generates a current across the panels, converting some of the thermal energy into electrical energy. The generated electricity can power small devices.

[0028] The SMA power generation module includes a heat source collector 41, an SMA drive device, a power generation device and a refrigeration device. The heat source collector 41 is connected to the SMA drive device. The power generation device is a small generator. The refrigeration device includes an SMA refrigeration unit and a heat exchanger. The power generation device and the refrigeration device are both connected to the connecting rod of the SMA drive device. The heat source collector 41 and the refrigeration device are arranged in the same space.

[0029] The heat source collector 41 is a tubular corrugated heat exchanger made of copper alloy, which has high thermal conductivity, good shear corrosion resistance, and can collect low-grade thermal energy. Shape memory alloy (SMA) has a unique shape memory effect and superelastic properties, which has obvious advantages in the utilization of low-grade thermal energy and can further improve energy utilization efficiency. The SMA drive device includes a pre-loaded SMA array and a bidirectional transmission mechanism. The SMA array is composed of parallel SMA wires, such as Figure 4As shown, the bidirectional transmission mechanism includes a transmission rod 421, a connecting rod 422, a drive gear block 423, a drive gear 424, a guide gear block 425, and a bracket 426. The drive gear block 423 is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod 422, and the drive gear 423 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 421. The transmission rod 421 and the connecting rod 422 are both slidably mounted on the bracket. The guide gear block 425 is fixedly mounted on the inside of the bracket, and the drive gear 424 meshes with the drive gear block 423 and the guide gear block 425, respectively. The top end of the transmission rod 421 is fixedly connected to the SMA array, and the bottom end of the connecting rod 422 is fixedly connected to the SMA assembly of the SMA refrigeration unit. The SMA array is driven to alternately load and unload stress by utilizing thermal expansion differences, and the connecting rod 422 is driven to perform cyclic reciprocating motion via the transmission rod 421. The SMA refrigeration unit is an SMA component, which is also provided with preload stress. Driven by a bidirectional transmission mechanism, it can absorb heat and cool down. The provided heat exchanger can absorb the cold energy and transmit it to the evaporator of the semiconductor refrigeration module, thereby cooling the back space of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, increasing the temperature difference of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, and thus generating more electricity.

[0030] Specifically, the SMA power generation module utilizes low-grade thermal energy: first, a bellows-type heat exchanger installed within the flue gas heat exchanger 33 collects low-grade thermal energy, namely the heat from hydrogen combustion in the gas turbine, and transfers this heat to the preloaded stress SMA array in the SMA driver module. Then, under the action of the low-grade thermal energy, the preloaded stress reduces the critical phase transition temperature of the preloaded stress SMA array, triggering an austenite-to-martensite phase transformation. The SMA material expands due to the heat, and this thermal expansion energy is converted into mechanical stress on the SMA array via a bidirectional transmission mechanism. The bidirectional transmission mechanism drives the rotor of the small generator to rotate and generate electricity. Simultaneously, the bidirectional transmission mechanism drives the SMA assembly, which is a shape memory alloy. When the SMA assembly is driven by the preloaded stress, the SMA deforms and absorbs heat when the stress is unloaded. The ambient temperature around the dynamic corrugated heat exchanger decreases, and the phase change fluid inside flows to the evaporator, absorbing heat and vaporizing. This cools the back of the semiconductor cooling plate, thereby increasing the temperature difference across the semiconductor cooling plate and improving power generation efficiency.

[0031] In this embodiment, the temperature range of low-grade thermal energy is 100-200°C, the material of SMA is nickel-titanium alloy, and the SMA array and SMA refrigeration assembly apply a preloaded mechanical stress of 300-500 MPa to reduce the critical temperature of phase change. The preloaded stress is applied by stretching or rolling using equipment, and the preloaded mechanical stress is applied during the manufacturing process of the SMA array and SMA refrigeration assembly.

[0032] Working principle of the present invention: The distributed hydrogen power generation system provided by the present invention first uses hydrogen production module 1 to produce hydrogen. This process involves deionizing water to obtain pure water. Hydrogen is then produced using hydrolysis hydrogen production unit 11. The produced hydrogen is treated in gas-liquid separator 12 and then filtered through hydrogen purification unit 13. The filtered and purified hydrogen is pressurized by compressor 21 and stored in hydrogen storage compartment 22. During power generation, hydrogen storage compartment 22 is opened via an electronic valve and, in conjunction with pressure reducing valves, regulators, and flow controllers, flows into the combustion chamber of gas turbine 32. The hydrogen burns in the combustion chamber, driving the turbine and, in turn, the generator. The resulting hydrogen vapor is converted into water vapor, which flows into flue gas heat exchanger 33. Finally, it is converted into condensed water by condenser 34 and transported to hydrogen production module 1 for recycling.

[0033] In the flue gas heat exchanger 33, the SMA power generation module 42 and the semiconductor refrigeration power generation module 43 absorb heat. The heat source collector 41 of the SMA power generation module 42 absorbs the heat in the flue gas heat exchanger 33 and then transmits it to the SMA drive device. The SMA drive device will drive the bidirectional transmission mechanism to move, that is, the bidirectional transmission mechanism simultaneously drives the generator to rotate to generate electricity and the SMA component to deform and absorb heat. The SMA component absorbs heat and cools down. The heat is transmitted to the evaporator of the semiconductor refrigeration power generation module through the fluid in the heat exchanger, and the back of the semiconductor refrigeration plate is cooled to increase the temperature difference. The SMA drive device can realize cyclic power generation and cyclic refrigeration.

[0034] Example 2 This embodiment discloses a method for power generation based on distributed hydrogen energy. This method is implemented based on the power generation system described in Example 1 and includes the following steps: S01. Purified water is obtained through deionized water treatment, and then hydrogen is produced through a hydrolysis hydrogen production unit. The produced hydrogen is treated in a gas-liquid separator and then filtered in a hydrogen purification unit; S02. The filtered and purified hydrogen is compressed by a compressor and stored in a hydrogen container. During power generation, the hydrogen flows into the combustion chamber of the gas turbine, where it is burned, driving the turbine to rotate, thereby driving the generator to generate electricity. The burned hydrogen turns into water vapor, flows into the flue gas heat exchanger, and then passes through the condenser to become condensed water, which is then transported to the hydrogen production module for recycling; S03. In the flue gas heat exchanger, the SMA power generation module and the semiconductor refrigeration power generation module absorb heat. The heat source collector of the SMA power generation module absorbs the heat in the flue gas heat exchanger and then transmits it to the SMA drive device. The SMA drive device is deformed by heat, driving the bidirectional drive mechanism to move. The bidirectional drive mechanism simultaneously drives the generator to rotate. The generator SMA component deforms and absorbs heat. The SMA component absorbs heat and cools down. The heat is transmitted to the evaporator of the semiconductor refrigeration power generation module through the fluid in the heat exchanger, cooling the back of the semiconductor refrigeration plate and increasing the temperature of the front and back of the semiconductor refrigeration plate. According to the Seebeck effect, the heat energy at both ends of the semiconductor refrigeration plate flows from the high-temperature side to the low-temperature side and drives the movement of charge carriers. The movement of charge carriers forms an electric current at both ends of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, realizing the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy.

The movement of charge carriers forms an electric current at both ends of the semiconductor refrigeration plate, realizing the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy.
