In order to further ensure that more comprehensive and accurate temperature distribution information and voltage distribution information of the hydrogen fuel cell are provided, optionally, as shown in fig. 1, there are a plurality of the preformed holes 11 on one bipolar plate body 10, a plurality of the pin structures 20 in the detecting device, the pin structures 20 are located in the preformed holes 11 in a one-to-one correspondence, each of the pin structures 20 is electrically connected to the temperature measuring instrument 30 and the voltage measuring instrument 40, the temperature measuring instrument 30 is used for displaying a plurality of the temperature values, and the voltage measuring instrument 40 is used for displaying a plurality of the voltage values. The preset holes are formed in the positions of the bipolar plate, and the contact pin structures are inserted into the preset holes to detect the temperature distribution condition and the voltage distribution condition of the different positions of the bipolar plate, so that the method is further beneficial to optimizing the thermal management and the performance of the hydrogen fuel cell.
The preformed holes may be uniformly distributed on the bipolar plate body or may be irregularly distributed on the bipolar plate body.
In a more specific embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the bipolar plate body 10 includes a gas inlet and a gas outlet on different sides, and a part of the plurality of preformed holes 11 is located in the bipolar plate body 10 on the gas inlet side, and the rest of the plurality of preformed holes 11 is located in the bipolar plate body 10 on the gas outlet side.

According to the obtained temperature value and voltage value of each single cell, a temperature change diagram and a voltage change diagram of an inlet and an outlet of each single cell in the cold starting process can be drawn to help optimize the thermal management and the performance of the fuel cell stack.
In addition, the number and position of the preformed holes on the bipolar plate of each single cell and the number and position of the preformed holes on the bipolar plate of each single cell can be flexibly set and adjusted according to practical situations by the person skilled in the art to meet the requirements of testing the temperature and the voltage of each part of the hydrogen fuel cell stack, and the application is not particularly limited.
According to another exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the above-mentioned detecting apparatus further includes: a wire group 50 including a voltage connection wire 501, a first temperature connection wire 502, and a second temperature connection wire 503, wherein a first end of the voltage connection wire 501 is electrically connected to the conductive housing, and a second end of the voltage connection wire 501 is electrically connected to the voltage measuring instrument; a first end of the first temperature connection wire 502 is electrically connected to a second end of the first thermode, and a second end of the first temperature connection wire 502 is electrically connected to the temperature measuring instrument; the first end of the second temperature connection wire 503 is electrically connected to the second end of the second hot electrode, and the second end of the second temperature connection wire 503 is electrically connected to the temperature measuring instrument.

That is, the pin structure is inserted into the preformed hole along a predetermined direction from a side of the conductive housing where the through hole is provided to a side of the conductive housing where the through hole is not provided, and the working end and the reference end are located outside the conductive housing, or may be located outside the preformed hole or inside the preformed hole, depending on a size relationship between a length of the conductive housing in the predetermined direction and a depth of the preformed hole, that is, when the length of the conductive housing in the predetermined direction is greater than the depth of the preformed hole, after the pin structure is inserted into the preformed hole, a part of the conductive housing, the working end, and the reference end are located outside the preformed hole, and when a length of the conductive housing in the predetermined direction is smaller than the depth of the preformed hole, the pin structure is completely located in the preformed hole after the conductive housing is inserted into the preformed hole, and the working end and the reference end are also located in the preformed hole.

When all the thermocouple loops are located in the conductive housing, the first temperature connecting wire and the second temperature connecting wire pass through the through hole to enter the conductive housing to be electrically connected with the thermocouple loops, and the shells of the first temperature connecting wire and the second temperature connecting wire are made of insulating materials, the insulating structure may only include the second insulating layer, i.e. the first insulating layer is omitted.
And under the condition that all the thermocouple loops are positioned in the conductive shell, a first temperature connecting wire and a second temperature connecting wire penetrate through the through hole to enter the conductive shell to be electrically connected with the thermocouple loops, and under the condition that the shells of the first temperature connecting wire and the second temperature connecting wire are made of conductive materials, the insulating structure comprises the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer, and the first insulating layer can prevent the first temperature connecting wire and the second temperature connecting wire from contacting with the inner wall of the through hole, namely, the first temperature connecting wire and the second temperature connecting wire from contacting with the conductive shell.
