[0026] The present application provides a solid oxide electrolysis system operating parameter optimization method and device, which are described below respectively.
[0027] At present, there are few studies on the influence of operating parameters on SOEC degradation, and most of the existing studies are on the influence of various operating parameters on system efficiency. Some studies considering SOEC degradation do not fully consider the degradation situation. Specifically, in the aspect of model establishment, due to the complex degradation mechanism of SOEC, there are many reasons leading to SOEC degradation, and it is not easy to establish an accurate and comprehensive degradation model, resulting in relatively few existing SOEC models. In the aspect of parameter optimization, most of the studies on SOEC focus on the collaborative optimization of temperature, efficiency and hydrogen yield of SOEC to ensure that the system can efficiently produce more hydrogen under the condition of meeting thermal safety, and no study considers the degradation problems of Ni agglomeration, electrolyte phase transition, LSM phase coarsening in oxygen electrode, oxygen electrode delamination and oxidation film formed on the interconnection.
[0028] As shown in Figure 1 The present application provides a solid oxide electrolysis system operating parameter optimization method, which comprises: S101. Add the Nernst voltage, ohmic loss, activation loss and concentration loss of the fuel cell to construct an electrochemical model.
[0029] It is understandable that the structural diagram of a solid oxide electrolysis system is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a blower 201, a heat exchanger 202, a valve 203, a heater 204, a hydrogen storage tank 205, a pressure regulator 206, a mixing valve 207, a water container 208, a water pump 209, a steam generator 210, a water separator 211, and an SOEC (solid oxide electrolyzer). Reference Figure 3 As shown, the first step is to model the fuel cell stack and auxiliary components of the solid oxide electrolysis system. The fuel cell stack modeling includes electrochemical modeling, degradation modeling, mass conservation modeling, and energy conservation modeling. The auxiliary component modeling includes heat transfer modeling of the heat exchanger and blower modeling.
[0030] Electrochemical model: The voltage of a single cell can be obtained from the Nernst voltage and the three loss voltages:
[0031] in, , , , These represent the Nernst voltage, ohmic loss, activation loss, and concentration loss, respectively. The Nernst voltage is derived from the Nernst equation:
[0032] in, , , Represent , , The partial pressure.
[0033] in, It can be obtained from the following formula:
[0034] The activation voltage is caused by the slow electrochemical reaction rates at the fuel and oxygen electrodes. Part of the voltage generated during the chemical reactions driving electron transport or electron transfer out of the electrodes is lost; this voltage is highly nonlinear. The activation voltages of the fuel and air electrodes can be calculated using the Butler-Volmer equation:
[0035]
[0036] in is the current density, and are the ideal gas constant and Faraday constant, respectively, is the number of electrons participating in the electrochemical reaction =2, and are the exchange current densities of the fuel electrode and the air electrode, respectively, T denotes the temperature, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0037]
[0038] wherein, is the pre-exponential factor of the fuel electrode, is the pre-exponential factor of the oxygen electrode, is the activation energy of the fuel electrode half-reaction, is the activation energy of the oxygen electrode half-reaction.
[0039] Ohmic loss is caused by the resistance of electrons passing through the electrode material and various connecting components and the resistance of ions passing through the electrolyte. This pressure drop is linearly proportional to the current density, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0040] Concentration loss is caused by the change in the concentration of reactants on the electrode surface during use. This irreversibility is called concentration loss, and the decrease in concentration is caused by the inability to provide sufficient reactants to the electrode surface. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0041] S102, based on the degradation law and the coarsening law of the oxygen electrode, the degradation law of the fuel electrode, the degradation law of the electrolyte, and the degradation law of the solid oxide electrolysis system interconnection component, a degradation model is constructed.
[0042] It can be understood that the degradation model: For the degradation of the oxygen electrode, the commonly used LSM-YSZ oxygen electrode is mainly considered. Such oxygen electrode is prone to This chemical reaction, thereby forming (LZO) layer, LZO particles cover the oxygen electrode and electrolyte interface to weaken the interface strength. Accordingly, a corresponding degradation model is established to describe this phenomenon, and the mathematical model is as follows: ,
[0043] In addition, the oxygen electrode will be roughened due to the diffusion of Mn2+, and the degradation is evaluated by the length of TPB, which will affect the exchange current density of the air electrode, at which time the exchange current density needs to be corrected, and the model is established as follows:
[0044]
[0045]
[0046]
[0047] For the degradation of the fuel electrode, since Ni-YSZ has excellent electrocatalytic performance and the thermal expansion coefficient is close to YSZ electrolyte, it is often used as a fuel electrode, so the degradation mechanism of this kind of electrode is mainly studied, and the main degradation reason comes from the coarsening of Ni, which will affect the exchange current density of the fuel electrode, at which time the exchange current density needs to be corrected, and the model of Ni coarsening is established as follows:
[0048]
[0049]
[0050]
[0051] For the degradation of the electrolyte, the commonly used YSZ electrolyte is considered, and the degradation can be represented by the decrease of ionic conductivity and the increase of ohmic loss, which can be modeled as follows:
[0052]
[0053]
[0054] The degradation of the interconnection component is due to the formation of an oxide layer between the current collector and the interconnection component under high temperature and oxygen-rich environment, which increases the interface contact resistance, and the thickness of the oxide layer can be calculated according to the Wagner oxidation theory model as follows: ,
[0055] S103, based on the electrochemical model, the degradation model, the mass conservation model and the energy conservation model of the solid oxide electrolysis system, the heat transfer model of the heat exchanger, and the working principle model of the air blower, a degradation model of the solid oxide electrolysis system is constructed.
[0056] It can be understood that the mass conservation model mainly satisfies the following equations: ,
[0057] ,
[0058] where represents the number of moles, represents the molar flow rate, represents the temperature, and represent the inlet and outlet of the control unit, respectively, represents the molar concentration of the fluid .
[0059] Energy conservation model: For the gas control unit, mainly satisfy:
[0060] For the solid control unit, mainly satisfy:
[0061] ; ;
[0062] Then model the auxiliary components of the SOEC system: Heat exchanger: For the heat exchanger, the following formula should be followed:
[0063] where represents the heat conduction of the gas i in the heat exchanger with the gas j ; , , , are the density, volume, specific heat capacity, temperature of the gas i , respectively.
[0064] Blower: For the blower, the following formula should be followed:
[0065] where is the amount of substance of air, is the normal pressure specific heat capacity of air, is the temperature of the air flowing into the blower, is the efficiency of the blower, , respectively are the pressure of the air flowing into and out of the fan, is the specific heat capacity ratio of the air.
[0066] S104, input different solid oxide electrolysis system operation parameters into the degradation model for simulation, determine the electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate of the solid oxide electrolysis system based on the simulation data, and determine the target operation parameters of the solid oxide electrolysis system by comprehensively considering the electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate.
[0067] It can be understood that the method provided by the application can be executed by an application program on a terminal or a server, the terminal can be a mobile phone or a computer, and the server can be an edge server or a cloud server.
[0068] Based on the system model, the operation parameters of the SOEC system are optimized: First, after the model is verified by experiment, the air excess ratio and the water vapor conversion rate are changed under different current densities, the system efficiency and the decay rate are calculated by using the SOEC system degradation model, and the operation parameters that make the system run efficiently and have low decay are obtained through multi-objective optimization.
[0069] The application first establishes an SOEC system model considering the agglomeration of Ni, the phase change of the electrolyte, the LSM phase coarsening in the oxygen electrode, the delamination of the oxygen electrode and the formation of the oxide film on the interconnection, and then verifies the model, and then a SOEC system operation parameter optimization method is realized by the model, so that the system has a lower decay rate under the working state of efficient hydrogen production.
[0070] In some embodiments, based on the simulation data, the electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate of the solid oxide electrolysis system are determined, and the target operation parameters of the solid oxide electrolysis system are determined by comprehensively considering the electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate. In the case that the simulation data meets the constraint condition, the operation parameters of each operation point of the solid oxide electrolysis system and the corresponding electrolysis efficiency and decay rate are determined based on the simulation data; The electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate of each operation point are normalized respectively to obtain the normalized electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate; The normalized electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate are weighted and summed, and the target operation parameters of the solid oxide electrolysis system are determined based on the operation parameters of each operation point when the weighted sum result is the maximum.
[0071] It can be understood that the target operation parameters of the solid oxide electrolysis system are composed of the operation parameters of each operation point when the weighted sum result is the maximum.
[0072] Finally, the ranges and discrete steps of the three operation parameters are determined, as shown in Table 1: Table 1: Operation parameter table
[0073] The current density, water vapor conversion rate and air excess ratio of the operation points are set according to the above table, the operation parameters are taken as the input of the model, simulation is performed and simulation data is collected. It is checked whether the system temperature constraint is met during simulation. If met, the operation parameters, system efficiency (i.e. electrolysis efficiency), voltage decay rate and other data of this simulation are saved, and initialized for the next operation point. If not met, it is directly initialized for the next operation point. After the above steps are completed, all operation points that meet the temperature constraint and their corresponding system efficiency and decay rate are obtained.
[0074] After obtaining the above data, the system efficiency and decay rate of each operation point are normalized, and the processing formula is as follows:
[0075] represents the maximum efficiency under the above operation point, is the minimum decay rate under the above operation point.
[0076] The weighted objective function is used for optimization, and the formula is as follows:
[0077] and represent the normalized efficiency and decay rate. ω is the weight factor value, used to adjust the importance of system efficiency and decay rate in achieving the objective function.
[0078] After setting the appropriate weight factor according to the actual situation, the maximum is obtained, which realizes the parameter optimization of the system running with high efficiency and low decay.
[0079] In some embodiments, the electrolysis efficiency is determined based on the amount of substance of hydrogen gas produced by the solid oxide electrolysis system, the low heat value of hydrogen gas, the current of the solid oxide electrolysis system and the voltage of the solid oxide electrolysis system.
[0080] The calculation formula of the electrolysis efficiency is:
[0081] is the electrolysis efficiency, is the amount of substance of hydrogen gas produced by the solid oxide electrolysis system, is the low heat value of hydrogen gas. is the current of the solid oxide electrolysis system, is the voltage of the solid oxide electrolysis system.
[0082] It can be understood that, in order to obtain optimal system operation parameters, a higher electrolysis efficiency is required, and the electrolysis efficiency is positively correlated with the amount of substance of hydrogen gas generated by electrolysis, the low heat value of hydrogen gas, and the like, and is inversely correlated with the system voltage and the current.
[0083] In some embodiments, the decay rate is determined based on a running time of the solid oxide electrolysis system, an input voltage of the solid oxide electrolysis system after a set time length under constant current operation, and an initial input voltage of the solid oxide electrolysis system under constant current operation.
[0084] wherein the calculation formula of the decay rate is:
[0085] wherein, is the decay rate, the decay rate is a running time of the solid oxide electrolysis system t hours, a voltage decay rate per thousand hours (%); represents an input voltage (V) of the solid oxide electrolysis system after t hours under constant current operation; represents an initial input voltage (V) of the solid oxide electrolysis system under constant current operation.
[0086] It can be understood that, in order to obtain optimal operation parameters, a smaller decay rate is required, and the decay rate is positively correlated with the input voltage of the solid oxide electrolysis system after t hours under constant current operation.
[0087] In some embodiments, the calculation formula of the water vapor conversion rate is as follows:
[0088] wherein, is the water vapor conversion rate, is a number of single cells in the solid oxide electrolysis system, is a standard molar volume, is a volume flow rate of water vapor under standard state input into the solid oxide electrolysis system, F is a Faraday constant.
[0089] It can be understood that the water vapor conversion rate can be used to calculate the system electrolysis efficiency and the decay rate, and is positively correlated with the current and the number of single cells in the solid oxide electrolysis system, and is inversely correlated with the volume flow rate of water vapor under standard state input into the solid oxide electrolysis system.
[0090] In some embodiments, the constraint conditions include a constraint condition of the water vapor conversion rate, a constraint condition of an effective working current density range, and a temperature constraint condition.
[0091] The temperature constraints include the maximum temperature constraint, the stack temperature gradient constraint, and the stack inlet gas temperature difference constraint.
[0092] It is understandable that the operating parameters of the electrolysis system should satisfy the following constraints: When the system is working, the steam conversion rate cannot be too high or too low. If the steam conversion rate is too low, the system temperature will easily become too high, while if the steam conversion rate is too high, the raw material will be insufficient. The calculation formula and constraints are as follows:
[0093] in For water vapor conversion rate, This refers to the number of individual cells in the electrolysis system. For standard molar volume, The input is the volumetric flow rate of water vapor under standard conditions in the electrolysis system. is Faraday's constant.
[0094]
[0095] in , The minimum and maximum values of the water vapor conversion rate for normal operation of the fuel cell stack. , The values are typically 0.6 and 0.9, respectively.
[0096] The effective operating current density range of SOEC is generally considered to be 0~1A / cm². 2 That is, satisfying:
[0097] In addition to the constraints mentioned above, the system also needs to meet certain temperature constraints. The main temperature constraints and their general values are as follows: Maximum temperature constraint: The highest temperature inside the fuel cell stack should be below 1173K, which corresponds to the highest temperature of a single node being below 1173K in the established fuel cell stack model. Fuel cell stack temperature gradient constraint: The temperature gradient inside the fuel cell stack should be less than 8K / cm, which corresponds to the temperature difference between adjacent nodes (each node is 2cm long) being less than 16K in the established fuel cell stack model.
[0098] In addition, the temperature difference constraint of the gas at the inlet of the fuel cell stack must be met, that is, the temperature difference between water vapor and air at the inlet of the fuel cell stack should be less than 200K. In the established fuel cell stack model, this means that the temperature difference between water vapor and air at the inlet of the first node should be less than 200K.
[0099] like Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also provides a device 400 for optimizing operating parameters of a solid oxide electrolysis system, comprising: The electrochemical model construction module 401 is configured to add the Nernst voltage, ohmic loss, activation loss and concentration loss of the stack to construct an electrochemical model; The degradation model construction module 402 is configured to construct a degradation model based on the degradation law and roughening law of the oxygen electrode, the degradation law of the fuel electrode, the degradation law of the electrolyte and the degradation law of the solid oxide electrolysis system interconnection component; The degradation model construction module 403 is configured to construct a degradation model of the solid oxide electrolysis system based on the electrochemical model, the degradation model, the mass conservation model and the energy conservation model of the solid oxide electrolysis system, the heat conduction model of the heat exchanger and the working principle model of the air blower.
