Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a hydrogen fuel darkroom tail gas exhaust system, belonging to the technical field of electromagnetic compatible hydrogen fuel. Background Art
[0002] The application of hydrogen energy is mainly based on the production and consumption scenarios built around hydrogen fuel. Compared with internal combustion engines, hydrogen fuel cells have absolute application advantages. A fuel cell is a device that directly converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy in a non-combustion manner. When working, it uses electrodes to cause a non-combustion electrochemical reaction between the hydrogen (hydrogen-containing fuel) entering the negative electrode and the oxygen entering the positive electrode. The hydrogen is decomposed into positive ions H+ and electrons e- under the action of the catalyst on the negative electrode. H+ enters the electrolyte, while e- moves along the external circuit to the positive electrode (cathode) to generate current. At the positive electrode, the oxygen in the air and the H+ in the electrolyte absorb the electrons e- that reach the positive electrode to form water.
[0003] Most hydrogen fuel cell vehicles use high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks / cylinders to store hydrogen, which has the risk of leakage. In addition, hydrogen has a low density, diffuses quickly, and is colorless and odorless, making it difficult to detect hydrogen leakage. If the leakage is small during use, the hydrogen diffuses into the air, causing less harm and not likely to cause a large-scale fire; if it is in a relatively closed environment, due to its flammable and explosive physical properties, a large amount of hydrogen leakage can easily cause a deflagration.
[0004] For this purpose, we proposed a hydrogen fuel darkroom exhaust gas exhaust system. Utility Model Content
