Description

Low-temperature low-pressure cold start test system and test method for fuel cell
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a low-temperature low-pressure cold start test system and a test method for a fuel cell.
Background
Since hydrogen fuel cells are a new environmental protection industry, the development of fuel cell vehicles in China has entered the lead-in period, and the whole industry is market-oriented currently, fuel cell vehicles are about to be put into the market for use on a large scale, and the market application environments are varied and different, such as relatively special environments of low temperature, plateau low air pressure, high altitude low air pressure and the like, so that the fuel cell industry faces huge technical tests. At present, a fuel cell system belongs to a development stage, and a test for simulating a high-altitude low-pressure and low-temperature environment cannot be basically realized, so that an environment chamber capable of simulating the environment is basically not available in the industry, the test experience of the whole industry on the aspect is blank, and how to realize the operation of the fuel cell system in the environment chamber for simulating the severe environment is unknown. Therefore, the test of high altitude, low pressure, cold start is also difficult to achieve. The test mode of the current industry basically stays in a low-temperature starting stage state, and low-pressure starting at high altitude is just one conceptual requirement, but the market demands for low-temperature and high-altitude low-pressure starting at high altitude are very urgent, and a low-temperature and low-pressure environment chamber for simulating starting test of a fuel cell system is very urgent and difficult to realize.
Based on the experience of the low-temperature starting test of the fuel cell system, when the fuel cell system operates at low temperature, the hot gas of a cell exhaust pipeline is in contact with the cold air in the low-temperature environment, and condensation, frosting and icing phenomena can occur. Therefore, when the fuel cell operates in a plateau environment (a low-temperature low-pressure environment), the generated hot air is discharged by the cell exhaust pipeline, the hot air in the cell exhaust pipeline is contacted with cold air of the external environment to generate condensed water, and meanwhile, water generated in the operation process is discharged through the cell exhaust pipeline, so that the cell exhaust pipeline generates frosting and icing phenomena. In addition, in the prior art, the intake and exhaust systems share a single negative pressure tank. When the fuel cell is started, the inlet air is low-temperature air, the exhaust air is high-temperature gas, the two gases share one negative pressure tank, and when the cold gas and the hot gas are combined, the cold gas and the hot gas can be condensed and frozen at low temperature; because the exhaust system can sometimes mix part of hydrogen and share one negative pressure tank, the hydrogen can be mixed in the air; a negative pressure tank is not conducive to pressure equalization.

The working principle of the low-temperature low-pressure cold start test system of the fuel cell is as follows:
firstly, before the fuel cell system 2 is started, the first regulating valve assembly 53 is regulated to the minimum opening, so that the first air exhaust device 33 operates at the rated power and exhausts air to the first negative pressure air tank 31, the first air pressure sensor 34 monitors the air pressure in the first negative pressure air tank 31 in real time, and the main controller regulates the opening of the first regulating valve assembly 53 according to the air pressure value fed back by the first air pressure sensor 34 until the air pressure value monitored by the first air pressure sensor 34 reaches a first set air pressure value; the second regulating valve assembly 63 is adjusted to the maximum opening, so that the second air extractor 43 operates at the rated power and extracts air from the second negative pressure air tank 41, the second air pressure sensor 44 monitors the air pressure in the second negative pressure air tank 41 in real time, and the main controller adjusts the opening of the second regulating valve assembly 63 according to the air pressure value fed back by the second air pressure sensor 44 until the air pressure value monitored by the second air pressure sensor 44 reaches a second set air pressure value.
Secondly, during the start-up of the fuel cell system 2, the fuel cell system 2 sucks air from the battery air inlet pipe 52, and gradually increases the opening degree of the first regulating valve assembly 53, so that the air pressure value monitored by the first air pressure sensor 53 is always a first set air pressure value; the fuel cell system 2 exhausts the gas into the cell exhaust pipe 61, and the opening degree of the second regulator valve assembly 63 is gradually decreased so that the gas pressure value monitored by the second gas pressure sensor 44 is always the second set gas pressure value.
Then, in the normal operation of the fuel cell system 2, when the air pressure value monitored by the first air pressure sensor 34 is greater than the first set air pressure value, the opening degree of the first regulator valve assembly 53 is decreased, and when the air pressure value monitored by the first air pressure sensor 34 is less than the first set air pressure value, the opening degree of the first regulator valve assembly 53 is increased; the opening degree of the second regulator valve assembly 63 is decreased when the air pressure value monitored by the second air pressure sensor 44 is greater than a second set air pressure value, and the opening degree of the second regulator valve assembly 63 is increased when the air pressure value monitored by the second air pressure sensor 44 is less than the set air pressure value.
Finally, the moisture in the intake system 5 flows into the first water collecting container 32 after passing through the first negative pressure gas tank 31, the moisture in the exhaust system 6 flows into the second water collecting container 42 after passing through the second negative pressure gas tank 41, and the moisture in the first water collecting container 32 and the second water collecting container 42 is discharged through the drain system 7.

The first metering valve 531 maintains a negative pressure value demand required when the fuel cell system 2 is not operating, and the intake air demand of the fuel cell system 2 balances the negative pressure value by increasing the opening degree of the first regulating valve 532.

The second proportional valve 631 maintains the negative pressure value demand required when the fuel cell system 2 is not operating, and the negative pressure value is balanced by reducing the opening degree of the second regulator valve 632 when the fuel cell system 2 is exhausting.
