Background technology
Electrochemical fuel cell is a kind of device that hydrogen and oxygenant can be changed into electric energy and reaction product.The internal core parts of this device are membrane electrode (Membrane Electrode Assembly are called for short MEA), and membrane electrode (MEA) is made up of as carbon paper a PEM, two porous conductive materials of film two sides folder.The catalyzer that contains the initiation electrochemical reaction of even tiny dispersion on two boundary surfaces of film and carbon paper is as the metal platinum catalyzer.The membrane electrode both sides can galvanochemistry will take place with conductive body to be sent out and answers the electronics that generates in the process, draws by external circuit, constitutes current return.
At the anode tap of membrane electrode, fuel can pass poriness diffusion material (carbon paper) by infiltration, and electrochemical reaction takes place on catalyst surface, lose electronics, form positive ion, positive ion can pass PEM by migration, arrives the other end cathode terminal of membrane electrode.At the cathode terminal of membrane electrode, contain the gas of oxygenant (as oxygen), as air, pass poriness diffusion material (carbon paper), and the generation electrochemical reaction obtains electronics on catalyst surface, forms negative ion by infiltration.The positive ion of coming in the negative ion and the anode tap migration of cathode terminal formation reacts, and forms reaction product.
Adopting hydrogen is fuel, and the air that contains oxygen is in the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells of oxygenant (or pure oxygen is an oxygenant), and fuel hydrogen has just produced hydrogen positive ion (or being proton) in the catalytic electrochemical reaction of anodic site.PEM helps the hydrogen positive ion to move to the cathodic area from the anodic site.In addition, PEM is separated the air-flow and the oxygen containing air-flow of hydrogen fuel, they can not mixed mutually and produces explosion type reaction.
In the cathodic area, oxygen obtains electronics on catalyst surface, forms negative ion, and moves the hydrogen positive ion reaction of coming, reaction of formation product water with the anodic site.In the Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells that adopts hydrogen, air (oxygen), anode reaction and cathode reaction can be expressed in order to following equation:
Anode reaction: H
2→ 2H
++ 2e
Cathode reaction: 1/2O
2+ 2H
++ 2e → H
2O
In typical Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells, membrane electrode (MEA) generally all is placed in the middle of the pole plate of two conductions, and quarter is milled by die casting, punching press or machinery in the surface that every guide plate contacts with membrane electrode, and formation is the diversion trench of one or more at least.These guide plates can above metal material pole plate, also can be the pole plate of graphite material.Fluid duct on these guide plates and diversion trench import fuel and oxygenant the anodic site and the cathodic area on membrane electrode both sides respectively.In the structure of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells monocell, only there is a membrane electrode, the membrane electrode both sides are respectively the fair water fin of anode fuel and the fair water fin of cathode oxidant.These fair water fins are both as current collector plate, and also as the mechanical support on membrane electrode both sides, the diversion trench on the fair water fin acts as a fuel again and enters the passage of anode, cathode surface with oxygenant, and as the passage of taking away the water that generates in the fuel cell operation process.
In order to increase the general power of whole Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells, two or more monocells can be connected into electric battery or be unified into electric battery by the mode that tiles usually by straight folded mode.In straight folded, in-line electric battery, can there be diversion trench on the two sides of a pole plate, and wherein one side can be used as the anode guide face of a membrane electrode, and another side can be used as the cathode diversion face of another adjacent membranes electrode, and this pole plate is called bipolar plates.A series of monocell connects together by certain way and forms an electric battery.Electric battery tightens together by front end-plate, end plate and pull bar usually and becomes one.
A typical battery stack generally includes: the water conservancy diversion import and the flow-guiding channel of (1) fuel and oxidant gas are distributed to fuel (hydrogen-rich gas that obtains as hydrogen, methyl alcohol or methyl alcohol, rock gas, gasoline) and oxygenant (mainly being oxygen or air) in the diversion trench of each anode, cathode plane equably after reforming; (2) import and export and the flow-guiding channel of cooling fluid (as water) are evenly distributed to cooling fluid in each electric battery inner cooling channel, and the thermal absorption that hydrogen in the fuel cell, the themopositive reaction of oxygen galvanochemistry are generated is also taken electric battery out of and dispelled the heat; (3) outlet of fuel and oxidant gas and corresponding flow-guiding channel, fuel gas and oxidant gas are when discharging, and portability goes out the liquid that generates in the fuel cell, the water of steam state.Usually, the import and export of all fuel, oxygenant, cooling fluid are all opened on the end plate of fuel cell group or on two end plates.
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells both can be used as the power system of delivery vehicles such as car, ship, can be used as movable type or stationary power generation system again.
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells generally is made up of several monocells, these monocells are coupled together the formation pem fuel cell stack in the mode of serial or parallel connection, and pem fuel cell stack and other operation back-up systems are combined constitutes whole Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells electricity generation system.
Fuel cell generation is that to adopt hydrogen be the novel energy that raw material generates electricity, and has characteristics such as pollution-free, the high and low noise of conversion usefulness, cold operation. have a wide range of applications.But the raw material-hydrogen of fuel cell is a kind of inflammable, explosive gas, for fuel cell generation can long-term safety be moved reliably, must carry out the detection of hydrogen gas leakage to fuel cell generation, when detecting hydrogen gas leakage, in time report to the police and the cut-out sources of hydrogen.
Hydrogen-sensitive element is generally adopted in detection to hydrogen, the principle of hydrogen-sensitive element measurement gas component content is: when tested hydrogen during by hydrogen-sensitive element surperficial, chemical reaction can take place, make the resistance of its inner metal oxide that variation take place, and the size of its resistance and linear substantially by the density of hydrogen on its surface.Therefore, as long as convert changes in resistance to change in voltage, measure voltage signal and just can calculate corresponding density of hydrogen.
Consult Fig. 1.Fig. 1 is the hydrogen-sensitive element wiring schematic diagram.Among Fig. 1, the 1st, hydrogen-sensitive element, the 2nd, pull-up resistor R.VC is an operating voltage, and VH is a heating voltage, and VO is an output voltage.
Hydrogen alarm circuit commonly used now has two kinds, a kind of employing mimic channel, it is connected to output voltage VO in the dc bridge circuit, and output voltage VO just can increase after hydrogen-sensitive element detects hydrogen, mimic channel indicates the variation of VO with voltage table, and sends sound and light alarm.The advantage of mimic channel is not need working procedure, and antijamming capability is strong, and shortcoming is the circuit complexity, and precision is low.Another kind of alarm circuit is to adopt the band microprocessor circuit, and its principle is that the variation with VO converts digital signal to by A/D and handles for CPU.CPU carries out linearization process and carries out temperature compensation it by the operating software algorithm.By opening or closing of I/O mouth guide sound light crossing-signal.Adopt the characteristics of microcontroller circuit to be: circuit is simple, the precision height.
But, more than two kinds of circuit all can only the leakage of hydrogen be detected and report to the police, and operating personnel's manually-operated is still wanted in the work of closing sources of hydrogen after reporting to the police, and in processing time that like this can the delay accident, causes security incident.
