Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydrogen fuel cells, and specifically relates to a hydrogen fuel cell mixed exhaust muffler. Background Technique
[0002] A hydrogen fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy of fuel into electrical energy, and it is a truly pollution-free and highly efficient battery. The waste gas that does not participate in the reaction and the waste water generated after the reaction in the stack will be discharged through the mixed exhaust system. As the battery power increases, the flow rate of the reaction gas speeds up, and together with the additional noise from the air compressor, etc., the noise at the tail exhaust outlet is very large, causing a certain amount of noise pollution.
[0003] The existing mixed exhaust mufflers are mainly resistive, reactive, and impedance composite types, and corresponding expansion chambers and sound insulation materials are designed. Some of them are designed with drain ports to prevent the accumulation of water and affect the noise reduction performance. However, although a single drain port can discharge the waste water in the cavity, the placement position of the muffler is affected by its own drain pipe, resulting in inconvenient installation and low universality. Therefore, a hydrogen fuel cell mixed exhaust muffler is provided. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a hydrogen fuel cell mixed exhaust muffler to solve the problems that the placement position of the muffler is affected by its own drain pipe, resulting in inconvenient installation and low universality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0021] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a hydrogen fuel cell hybrid exhaust silencer, including a cylinder body; a rear end cover 2 is arranged at the opening end of the cylinder body; an air inlet / water inlet 3 is arranged on the cylinder body and at one end far from the rear end cover 2; an exhaust / drainage port a 4 is arranged on the rear end cover 2; a primary silencing structure is located inside the cylinder body and between the air inlet / water inlet 3 and the exhaust / drainage port a 4; a secondary silencing structure includes a secondary expansion chamber 6-1 located between the cylinder body and the primary silencing structure, and a plurality of uniformly distributed exhaust / drainage ports b 6-2 are arranged on the side wall of the rear end cover 2 and outside the exhaust / drainage port a 4, and a sound insulation cotton 6-3 is arranged on the side wall of the cylinder body. By arranging the sound insulation cotton 6-3, secondary silencing is realized. The unreacted waste gas and waste water of the fuel cell stack will enter the primary silencing structure through the air inlet / water inlet 3 for primary silencing. The exhaust / drainage port c 5-3 of the main expansion chamber 5-2 will discharge a certain amount of accumulated water and waste gas, ensuring that the primary silencing structure is not affected by the accumulated water; the waste gas and waste water discharged from the exhaust / drainage port c 5-3 of the main expansion chamber 5-2 will enter the secondary expansion chamber 6-1 to achieve secondary silencing; the exhaust / drainage port b 6-2 is opened on the rear end cover 2 to discharge the waste gas and waste water generated in the secondary expansion chamber 6-1. The waste gas and waste water are discharged after two-stage silencing. The water outlet of the exhaust / drainage port b 6-2 is opened on the end face of the rear end cover 2, which can drain water at multiple angles, avoiding the influence of the position of the silencer by its own drain pipe, facilitating installation and having high universality.
[0023] Specifically, the primary silencing structure includes a connection channel 5-1 arranged between the air inlet / water inlet 3 and the exhaust / drainage port a 4. A plurality of main expansion chambers 5-2 are arranged on the connection channel 5-1. A plurality of uniformly distributed exhaust / drainage ports c 5-3 are arranged on the side wall of the main expansion chamber 5-2. The primary silencing is realized through the cooperation of the connection channel 5-1 between the air inlet / water inlet 3 and the exhaust / drainage port a 4 and the exhaust / drainage port c 5-3. At the same time, the primary silencing structure has a simple structure, low back pressure and does not need to be repaired after one-time forming.
[0024] Specifically, the cylinder body includes a front end cover 1-1 and a double-layer heat insulation layer 1-2. The front end cover 1-1 and the double-layer heat insulation layer 1-2 are welded together. The sound insulation cotton 6-3 is located between the double-layer heat insulation layer 1-2, preventing the sound insulation material from coming into direct contact with waste gas and waste water, which may cause the sound insulation effect to decline over time. By setting the double-layer heat insulation layer 6-3, it is possible to avoid the high temperature of the mixed drainage and water vapor during the high-power operation of the hydrogen fuel cell, which is likely to cause accidental burns, thus ensuring the anti-scald safety during use.
[0025] Specifically, there are four exhaust / drainage ports b6-2, which are evenly arranged along the arc surface of the rear end cover 2. By setting the water outlet of the four exhaust / drainage ports b6-2 on the end face of the rear end cover 2, it is possible to drain water from multiple angles, with high universality.
[0026] Specifically, the cylinder body, the rear end cover 2, the air inlet / water inlet 3, the exhaust / drainage port a4, the primary sound absorption structure, and the secondary sound absorption structure are made of an integral material, with an integrated design of sound insulation and anti-scalding, which can save materials, reduce weight, and improve utilization efficiency.
[0027] Working principle: During the use of the present utility model, the unreacted waste gas and waste water from the fuel cell stack will enter the primary sound absorption structure through the air inlet / water inlet 3 for primary sound absorption. The exhaust / drainage port c5-3 of the main expansion chamber 5-2 will discharge a certain amount of accumulated water and waste gas, ensuring that the primary sound absorption structure is not affected by the accumulated water. The waste gas and waste water discharged from the exhaust / drainage port c5-3 of the main expansion chamber 5-2 will enter the secondary expansion chamber 6-1 for secondary sound absorption. The rear end cover 2 is provided with an exhaust / drainage port b6-2 for discharging the waste gas and waste water generated in the secondary expansion chamber 6-1. After the waste gas and waste water are subjected to two-stage sound absorption, they are discharged. The water outlet of the exhaust / drainage port b6-2 is located on the end face of the rear end cover 2, enabling drainage from multiple angles.
