By comparing and analyzing the electrolysis efficiencies under different combinations of operating pressure and alkali flow rate, it can be determined that the optimal combination of operating pressure and alkali flow rate for achieving the highest electrolysis efficiency under specific temperature and current conditions is available for the hydrogen production system. The electrolysis efficiency model is constructed based on the electrochemical principles of alkaline water electrolysis.

[0026] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, for each working condition: step S200 includes steps S210 to S240: S210. Based on the current, operating pressure, and temperature under this operating condition, calculate the cell voltage of each electrolysis cell in the hydrogen production system.

[0027] Specifically, since the operating pressure includes the anode operating pressure and the cathode operating pressure of the electrolytic cell, the total pressure of the electrolytic cell can be calculated by adding the two together.

[0028] The activation overpotential can be calculated according to formula (2): (2) in, To activate the overpotential, The amount of charge transferred when 1 mol of hydrogen gas is generated ( ), and These represent the charge transfer coefficients of the anode and cathode, respectively, and can be calculated using empirical formulas related to temperature. For the pre-obtained current density, and These represent the exchange current densities at the anode and cathode of the electrolytic cell, respectively. The bubble coverage rate on the electrode surface is obtained in advance.

[0029] The ohmic overpotential can be calculated according to formula (3): (3) in, This is an ohmic overpotential. For cathode resistance, For anode resistance, The preset electrolyte resistance, The preset diaphragm resistance, The preset bubble resistance, This represents the current under this operating condition.

[0030] The reversible electrolysis voltage obtained from the above formulas (1) to (3) Activation overpotential Ohmic overpotential Summing these values ​​yields the cell voltages of each electrolytic cell in the electrolytic cell. As shown in formula (4): (4) S220. Based on the current under this operating condition, the cell voltage of each electrolysis cell, and the number of electrolysis cells in the hydrogen production system obtained in advance, calculate the system input power of the hydrogen production system.

[0031] Because the electrolyzer of the hydrogen production system is composed of It consists of several electrolytic cells connected in series, with each cell having a voltage of [voltage value missing]. Then the total voltage of the entire electrolytic cell is Based on the total voltage and the current under this operating condition The system input power of the hydrogen production system can be calculated. As shown in formula (5): (5) S230. Based on the current under this operating condition and the preset Faraday constant, calculate the chemical energy output of hydrogen per unit time.

[0032] The chemical energy output of hydrogen per unit time is used to characterize the chemical energy corresponding to the hydrogen production system producing hydrogen per second under this operating condition. The hydrogen production rate per unit time can be calculated according to formula (6) based on the current of the electrolyzer under this operating condition, as well as the preset Faraday constant and the number of electrolysis cells in the electrolyzer: (6) in, The hydrogen production rate per unit time. This represents the rate of oxygen production per unit time. The number of electrolysis chambers, This refers to the current under this operating condition. The Faraday constant is a preset value. The Faraday efficiency reflects the effective proportion of electrons converted into hydrogen gas in an actual reaction, and can be obtained by formula (7): (7) in, For electrode area, and The preset empirical coefficient can be obtained through experimental data calibration. After obtaining the hydrogen generation rate per unit time, the hydrogen output chemical energy per unit time can be obtained accordingly, as shown in formula (8): (8) in, Hydrogen output chemical energy per unit time is used to characterize the energy output level of hydrogen production system under this operating condition and is a key indicator for measuring electrolysis efficiency. The preset lower heating value of hydrogen is typically 242. kJ / mol.

[0033] S240. Calculate the ratio of hydrogen output chemical energy to system input power to obtain the electrolysis efficiency of the hydrogen production system under the corresponding operating conditions.

[0034] Electrolysis efficiency is used to characterize the ability of a hydrogen production system to convert electrical energy into the chemical energy of hydrogen under this operating condition, and to measure the output chemical energy of hydrogen per unit time obtained by the above formula (8). and the system input power obtained by formula (5) The ratio was calculated to obtain the electrolysis efficiency under this operating condition. As shown in formula (9): (9) S300: Based on the operating pressure and alkaline flow rate under various operating conditions, and according to the physical laws of gas diffusion and convection transport in alkaline electrolyte, determine the hydrogen content in oxygen of the hydrogen production system under the corresponding operating conditions.

[0035] In the alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production process, the generated hydrogen and oxygen initially exist in a dissolved state in the electrolyte. As the electrolysis reaction proceeds and the operating environment of the hydrogen production system changes, bubbles gradually form on the electrode surface and move between each other through the diaphragm. When oxygen mixes with hydrogen, the hydrogen purity decreases. Conversely, when hydrogen mixes with oxygen, the minimum safe load of the hydrogen production system is limited, and in severe cases, it may even lead to safety risks such as explosions. Therefore, the hydrogen content in oxygen is a critical indicator for the safe operation of the hydrogen production system. In this invention, different operating pressures and alkaline solution flow rates are input into the oxygen-hydrogen model to obtain the corresponding oxygen-hydrogen concentration, enabling a quantitative assessment of the safety risks of the hydrogen production system under different operating conditions.

[0036] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, for each working condition: step S300 includes steps S310 and S320: S310. Based on the operating pressure under this condition, calculate the diffusion flux, convection flux, and mixing flux of hydrogen in the electrolyte of the hydrogen production system.

[0037] The solubility of hydrogen in alkaline solution can be determined using formula (10) based on the Sechenov relation. : (10) in, This is a preset Sechenov constant, the value of which depends on the type of electrolyte and gas, for example... , The molar concentration of the pre-detected alkali solution (KOH) The solubility of hydrogen in pure water can be determined based on a preset water density. Operating pressure under this condition Preset hydrogen Henry coefficient And it is calculated using formula (11): (11) The solubility of hydrogen in alkaline solution was obtained. Then, based on the preset structural parameters of the diaphragm, since the diaphragm is filled with alkaline solution, the effective diffusion coefficient of hydrogen permeation through the diaphragm can be obtained by formula (12): (12) in, This represents the effective diffusion coefficient of hydrogen permeation through the membrane under this operating condition. This is the preset diffusion coefficient of hydrogen in alkaline solution. The preset membrane porosity, This is the preset tortuosity.

[0038] Based on the above calculations, according to Fick's diffusion law, the hydrogen diffusion flux under this operating condition is obtained, as shown in formula (13): (13) in, This is the hydrogen diffusion flux under this operating condition, used to characterize the rate at which hydrogen permeates the membrane under the influence of the concentration gradient. The preset diaphragm thickness, For the dissolved gas concentration gradient, The effective diffusion coefficient of hydrogen permeation through the membrane is obtained from formula (12). The solubility of hydrogen in alkaline solution is obtained by formula (11).

[0039] Considering the pressure difference between the anode and cathode, hydrogen gas will migrate under the drive of the pressure difference, resulting in a convection flow, as shown in formula (14): (14) in, This represents the hydrogen convection flow rate under this operating condition. The preset membrane permeability is closely related to the membrane parameters and can be obtained by pre-calibrating based on the membrane pore size, porosity, and tortuosity. The pre-obtained alkali concentration, The solubility of hydrogen in alkaline solution is obtained from formula (11). This refers to the difference between the anode pressure and the cathode pressure in the electrolyzer of a hydrogen production system. The membrane thickness is preset. Furthermore, the hydrogen mixing flux can be calculated according to formula (15) to characterize the amount of hydrogen solute transported with the alkaline solution flow: (15) in, This represents the hydrogen mixing flux under this operating condition. The flow rate of the alkali solution under this operating condition can be obtained through a flow sensor.

[0040] S320. Summing the diffusion flux, convection flux, and mixing flux yields the total hydrogen flux, and based on this, the hydrogen content in oxygen of the hydrogen production system under the corresponding operating conditions is obtained.

[0041] After obtaining the diffusion flux, convection flux, and mixing flux, they can be summed according to their contributions. Based on the structural parameters of the electrolyzer and the gas yield parameters, the hydrogen content in oxygen under this operating condition can be obtained, as shown in formula (16): (16) in, The hydrogen content in oxygen under the current operating conditions. The oxygen generation rate calculated using formula (6) is... This is the flux of hydrogen gas from the cathode side to the anode side of the electrolyzer per unit time, i.e., the hydrogen exchange flux. The hydrogen diffusion flux under this operating condition is calculated using formula (13). The hydrogen convection flow rate under this operating condition is calculated using formula (14). The hydrogen mixing flux under this operating condition is calculated using formula (15). This is the preset number of electrolysis chambers.

[0042] S400: For each operating condition and its corresponding current, the goal is to maximize electrolysis efficiency. With the hydrogen content in oxygen being less than or equal to a preset safety threshold as a constraint, the operating pressure and alkali flow rate are optimized to obtain the target operating pressure and target alkali flow rate under the corresponding current and temperature conditions.

[0043] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, constraint optimization includes a first optimization subtask, a second optimization subtask, and a third optimization subtask based on different constraint conditions. The constraints of the first, second, and third optimization subtasks correspond to oxygen hydrogen content that is less than or equal to a preset first safety threshold, an unlimited content, and a second safety threshold, respectively, where the first safety threshold is less than the second safety threshold. Specifically, the purpose of constraint optimization is to achieve the optimal electrolysis efficiency while ensuring the safe operation of the hydrogen production system. To achieve this objective, the present invention performs multi-task collaborative processing based on different constraint conditions, decomposing the original multi-objective optimization problem into three parallel subtasks, denoted as the first optimization subtask, the second optimization subtask, and the third optimization subtask. The first optimization subtask corresponds to oxygen hydrogen content that is less than or equal to a preset first safety threshold (e.g., 2%) to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the hydrogen production system. The second optimization subtask corresponds to oxygen hydrogen content that is infinitely large, therefore the oxygen hydrogen content is not limited, and it is used to obtain the solution with the highest electrolysis efficiency. The third optimization subtask corresponds to an oxygen hydrogen content that is less than or equal to a preset second safety threshold (e.g., 2.5%), and is used to obtain a solution that balances safety and high electrolysis efficiency.

[0044] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, step S400 includes the following process: For each preset optimization cycle, execute steps S410 to S440: For each optimization subtask, execute steps S410 to S430: S410. The local operating pressures and corresponding local alkaline flow rates of the previous optimization cycle are used as candidate operating pressures and corresponding candidate alkaline flow rates of the current optimization cycle; wherein, a preset number of candidate operating pressures and corresponding candidate alkaline flow rates are randomly generated in the first optimization cycle.

[0045] In the first optimization cycle, based on the preset operating pressure range and the preset alkali flow rate range, a preset number (e.g., N) of candidate operating pressures are randomly generated from the operating pressure range. Based on these candidate operating pressures and empirical or physical correlations, corresponding candidate alkali flow rates are generated from the alkali flow rate range, forming N candidate parameter pairs. , ),in, For the i-th candidate operating pressure, To and The corresponding i-th candidate alkali flow rate. In subsequent optimization cycles, the local operating pressure and corresponding local alkali flow rate of the previous optimization cycle are used as the candidate operating pressure and corresponding candidate alkali flow rate of the current optimization cycle.

[0046] S420. Based on the temperature and current under this operating condition, as well as the candidate operating pressure and the corresponding candidate alkali flow rate, determine the corresponding electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen.

[0047] Based on the temperature and current under this operating condition, for the N candidate parameter pairs obtained above ( , Using the above formulas (9) and (16), we can obtain the corresponding electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen for each candidate parameter under the current operating conditions of temperature and current.

[0048] S430. With maximizing electrolysis efficiency as the optimization objective and the hydrogen content in oxygen being less than or equal to a preset safety threshold as a constraint, the candidate operating pressure and candidate alkaline flow rate are optimized and updated a preset number of times to obtain the initial local optimal solution set of this optimization sub-task; wherein, the initial local optimal solution set includes a preset number of candidate operating pressures with the highest electrolysis efficiency during the optimization process and the corresponding candidate alkaline flow rates.

[0049] In this invention, each optimization cycle includes multiple iterations. By progressively searching, the parameter combination with the highest electrolysis efficiency that satisfies the constraints is gradually obtained. Specifically, for each optimization cycle, in the first iteration, the local optimal solution set of the previous optimization cycle is used as the input of the current optimization cycle. Constraint optimization is performed according to the constraints of the current optimization sub-task to obtain multiple sets of operating parameter combinations. Each set of operating parameter combinations includes an optimized candidate operating pressure and a corresponding candidate alkali flow rate, which serve as the first round of candidate solutions for that optimization cycle. In the remaining iterations, the candidate solution set obtained in the previous iteration is used as the input to obtain the candidate solution set under the current operating conditions of temperature and current. Specifically, in each constraint optimization, the electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen corresponding to each set of candidate solutions are obtained according to the aforementioned formulas (9) and (16). With maximizing the electrolysis efficiency as the objective function and the hydrogen content in oxygen being less than or equal to the preset safety threshold of the optimization sub-task as the condition, the input candidate operating pressure and the corresponding candidate alkali flow rate are subjected to fitness evaluation and optimization update to obtain a new set of candidate solutions.

[0050] S440. The initial local optimal solution sets between each optimization subtask are transferred to each other to obtain the final local optimal solution set of each optimization subtask in the optimization cycle. After all optimization subtasks have been transferred, the next optimization cycle is started until the preset maximum number of optimizations is reached. The highest electrolysis efficiency is selected from the local optimal solution set of the first optimization subtask as the target operating pressure and target alkali flow rate.

[0051] To achieve coordinated convergence among the three different types of optimization subtasks, cross-task migration is performed after each optimization subtask has independently iterated a preset number of times in each optimization cycle. Specifically, solutions satisfying the constraints of the first optimization subtask are migrated from the initial local optimum solution sets of the second and third optimization subtasks to the solution set of the first optimization subtask, obtaining the final local optimum solution set of the first optimization subtask. Similarly, corresponding migration operations are performed on the second and third optimization subtasks to obtain the final local optimum solution of each optimization subtask. After all optimization subtasks have been migrated, if the maximum number of optimization iterations has not been reached, the process continues to the next optimization cycle. When the maximum number of optimization iterations is reached, the parameter combination with the highest electrolysis efficiency and satisfying its constraints is selected from the final local optimum solution set of the first optimization subtask as the target operating pressure and target alkali flow rate for subsequent operation and control of the hydrogen production system.

[0052] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the step of fusing the various local alkaline flow rates to obtain the final target alkaline flow rate includes: migrating the initial local optimal solution sets corresponding to the second and third optimization sub-tasks to the initial local optimal solution set of the first optimization sub-task, forming the final local optimal solution set of the first optimization sub-task; migrating the initial local optimal solution sets corresponding to the first and second optimization sub-tasks to the initial local optimal solution set of the third optimization sub-task, forming the final local optimal solution set of the third optimization sub-task; and migrating the local alkaline flow rates corresponding to the first and third optimization sub-tasks to the initial local optimal solution set of the second optimization sub-task, forming the final local optimal solution set of the second optimization sub-task.

[0053] Specifically, from the initial local optimal solution sets corresponding to the second and third optimization sub-tasks, candidate solutions with high electrolysis efficiency (such as electrolysis efficiency higher than a preset efficiency threshold, or electrolysis efficiency ranking in the top N) and hydrogen content in oxygen less than or equal to the first safety threshold are selected and added to the original initial local optimal solution set of the first optimization sub-task to form the final local optimal solution set of the optimization sub-task.

[0054] Therefore, the multi-task collaborative optimization method adopted in this invention optimizes complex multi-objective constrained problems by solving problems in separate tasks and transferring effective solutions across tasks. Its core idea can be summarized as "breaking down a complex optimization problem into multiple parallel optimization sub-tasks, solving each sub-task independently, and then exchanging and fusing useful information to finally obtain the optimal solution that satisfies the original problem." For the optimization objective of maximizing electrolysis efficiency while ensuring that the hydrogen content in oxygen does not exceed a safety threshold (e.g., 2%), the original problem is first decomposed into three parallel optimization sub-tasks. The first optimization sub-task is a constrained optimization task, following the original problem's constraint that the hydrogen content in oxygen does not exceed the first safety threshold (e.g., 2%), and seeking a combination of operating pressure and alkali flow rate that ensures both the safety of the hydrogen production system and high electrolysis efficiency. The second optimization sub-task is an unconstrained optimization task, disregarding safety constraints and only pursuing the maximization of electrolysis efficiency. The third optimization sub-task is a relaxed constraint optimization task, appropriately relaxing the hydrogen content in oxygen to the second safety threshold (e.g., 2.5%) to find a solution with high electrolysis efficiency close to the safety boundary.

[0055] During optimization, each subtask is solved independently using the same optimization algorithm (such as NSGA-II), undergoing up to 100 iterations of independent optimization to obtain a local optimum solution set for the corresponding subtask. Then, a migration phase is initiated, where effective solutions from each subtask are interacted with and merged to obtain the final local optimum solution set for each subtask. For example, the first subtask introduces a safer solution with higher electrolysis efficiency from the second and third subtasks; the second subtask introduces a more efficient solution close to the safety threshold from the first and third subtasks; and the third subtask introduces a solution with high electrolysis efficiency and near-unconstrained conditions from the first and second subtasks, thus balancing safety and electrolysis efficiency. For instance, if the first subtask has a solution with 1.8% hydrogen content and 80% electrolysis efficiency, the second subtask will merge this solution and continue searching for a solution. This migration phase continues until a preset maximum number of iterations (e.g., 1000) is reached. As the iterations proceed, the local optimal solution sets of each optimization subtask gradually converge. Specifically, the solution of the first optimization subtask tends to be both safe and have high electrolysis efficiency; the solution of the second optimization subtask tends to have high electrolysis efficiency and is close to the safety boundary; and the solution of the third optimization subtask tends to balance safety and high electrolysis efficiency. Finally, the operating pressure and alkali flow rate combination with the highest electrolysis efficiency and meeting the constraints is selected from the first optimization subtask as the final global optimal solution to achieve the safe and efficient operation of the hydrogen production system.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also provides a method for regulating a hydrogen production system, the method comprising the following steps: S500: Obtain the current, temperature, operating pressure, and alkaline flow rate at the current sampling moment, and determine the target operating pressure and target alkaline flow rate under the current and temperature conditions; wherein, the target operating pressure and target alkaline flow rate are obtained by constrained optimization through any of the above-mentioned hydrogen production system operating parameter optimization methods. S600 calculates the difference between the operating pressure and the target operating pressure, as well as the difference between the alkali flow rate and the target alkali flow rate, and adjusts the operating pressure and alkali flow rate of the hydrogen system accordingly.

[0057] Specifically, using the aforementioned electrolysis efficiency model and oxygen-to-hydrogen model, or data analysis methods such as multiple linear regression and machine learning algorithms, the target operating pressure and target alkali flow rate under given current and temperature conditions can be calculated. These are compared with the actual obtained operating pressure and alkali flow rate. When the operating pressure or alkali flow rate deviates from the corresponding target value, a control command can be triggered. By adjusting the pressure regulating valve or the alkali circulation pump, the operating pressure or alkali flow rate is regulated to ensure the hydrogen production system achieves optimal electrolysis efficiency and meets operational safety requirements. For example, by adjusting the pressure regulating valve, the operating pressure is reduced at a rate of 0.05 MPa / min, while simultaneously adjusting the alkali flow rate according to model predictions to maintain the hydrogen production system operating within a safe and efficient range. If an abnormal alkali flow rate is found to be causing low electrolysis efficiency in the hydrogen production system, the system can adjust the speed of the alkali pump to change the alkali flow rate. For instance, if it is determined that the alkali flow rate is too high, the alkali pump speed is automatically reduced, decreasing the alkali flow rate at a rate of 0.5 L / min, while simultaneously monitoring the system status to ensure the adjusted hydrogen production system returns to a safe range.

[0058] The following is a specific example of the present invention: Taking a 10kW alkaline hydrogen production system as an example, the rated current of the alkaline electrolyzer in this system is 200A, the upper limit of the pressure is 1.6MPa and the lower limit is 0.6MPa, and the upper limit of the alkaline solution flow rate is 0.42m³ / h. 3 The lower limit for / h is 0.21 m 3 / h, with an upper temperature limit of 95℃ and a lower limit of 0℃. The specific steps are as follows: I. Construct electrolysis efficiency model and oxygen-hydrogen model, and use MATLAB platform to implement model coding (covering electrolysis efficiency and oxygen-hydrogen models) to obtain the mapping relationship between current, pressure, temperature and alkaline flow rate and electrolysis efficiency and oxygen-hydrogen.

[0059] II. Based on the design specifications and safe operation requirements of the hydrogen production system, the following parameter constraints are set: current 40~200A; temperature 0~95℃; operating pressure 0.6~1.6MPa; alkali solution flow rate 0.21~0.42m³ / h. 3 / h.

[0060] III. With the dual objectives of maximizing electrolysis efficiency and minimizing hydrogen concentration in oxygen, an optimization model was constructed using the aforementioned optimization method and implemented on the MATLAB platform. The input variables of the optimization model are current (40~200A), temperature (0~95℃), operating pressure (0.6~1.6MPa), and alkali solution flow rate (0.21~0.42m³ / h). 3 The output variables are electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen, respectively, with constraints including upper and lower limits of the input variables and hydrogen content in oxygen less than or equal to 2%. Ultimately, the optimal operating pressure and alkali flow rate parameters under specific operating conditions can be obtained, and the optimal operating curve can be plotted using multiple sets of parameters.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, this graph illustrates the trends in alkaline solution flow rate and operating pressure under different currents in an alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production system, where the hydrogen content in oxygen is less than or equal to 2% and the electrolysis efficiency is highest. The graph shows that when the current is between 40-200A, and the hydrogen content in oxygen is maintained at less than or equal to 2%, the alkaline solution flow rate initially increases and then stabilizes with increasing current, while the operating pressure increases rapidly and then stabilizes with increasing current. Furthermore, as... Figure 4 As shown, it illustrates the various currents at... Figure 3 A schematic diagram showing the electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen under different alkaline solution flow rates and operating pressures reveals that electrolysis efficiency increases with increasing current, while the hydrogen content in oxygen decreases in the opposite direction. Figure 5 As shown, it demonstrates the ability to maintain Figure 3 A schematic diagram showing the electrolysis efficiency and hydrogen content in oxygen exceeding safety limits at a specified current while maintaining constant alkali flow rate and operating pressure. It can be seen that at 150A, the hydrogen content in oxygen exceeds the safety limit of 2%, and at 70A, it exceeds the explosion limit. The optimal operating curve using the example of this invention maximizes electrolysis efficiency while ensuring safety.

[0062] Fourth, based on the optimal combination of pressure and alkali flow rate corresponding to each current, the optimal electrolysis efficiency can be achieved by inputting the data into the controller of the hydrogen production system. Alternatively, the parameters can be manually adjusted by the operator according to the optimal operating curve.

[0063] like Figure 6As shown, the operating parameter optimization system for the hydrogen production system includes: a parameter acquisition module 610, an electrolysis efficiency calculation module 620, an oxygen hydrogen content calculation module 630, and an optimization module 640. The parameter acquisition module 610 acquires the current, operating pressure, temperature, and alkali flow rate of the hydrogen production system under various operating conditions. The electrolysis efficiency calculation module 620 determines the electrolysis efficiency of the hydrogen production system under corresponding operating conditions based on the current, operating pressure, and temperature. The oxygen hydrogen content calculation module 630 determines the oxygen hydrogen content of the hydrogen production system under corresponding operating conditions based on the operating pressure and alkali flow rate. The optimization module 640 optimizes the operating pressure and alkali flow rate for each operating condition, taking the temperature and corresponding current as the optimization objective, and using the oxygen hydrogen content being less than or equal to a preset safety threshold as a constraint, to obtain the target operating pressure and target alkali flow rate under the corresponding current and temperature conditions.

[0064] Specific limitations regarding the optimization system for the operating parameters of the hydrogen production system can be found in the limitations on the optimization method for the operating parameters of the hydrogen production system described above, and will not be repeated here. Each module in the aforementioned optimization system for the operating parameters of the hydrogen production system can be implemented entirely or partially through software, hardware, or a combination thereof. These modules can be embedded in the processor of a computer device in hardware format or independent of it, or stored in the memory of a computer device in software format, so that the processor can call the corresponding operations of each module.

The processor 72 is the control unit of the electronic device 7, connecting various components of the entire electronic device 7 via various interfaces and lines. It executes programs or modules stored in the memory 11 (such as operating parameter optimization programs or control programs for hydrogen production systems) and calls data stored in the memory 11 to perform various functions and process data in the electronic device 7.

[0069] The processor 72 executes the operating system of the electronic device 7 and various installed application programs. The processor 72 executes the application programs to implement the steps in the above-mentioned hydrogen production system operating parameter optimization or hydrogen production system control method.
