Problems solved by technology

The controller cannot judge in real time whether the electrodes of the fuel cell are working normally
[0017] 2. A large amount of data is transmitted on the CAN bus, which reduces the reliability of communication
[0019] 4. Increasing the number of monitoring points cannot fully compensate for the lack of communication speed. At the same time, when a fuel cell electrode fails, it is impossible to determine which electrode is faulty because one monitoring point measures too many electrodes.
However, when the single-chip CPU is disturbed, the signal on the I / O port controlling the photoelectric switch may be reversed, changing from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0. When the signal is changed from 0 to 1, it will cause The two electrodes whose signal is the same as 1 are short-circuited, so that the single-electrode voltage of this road is also connected to the CPU in series.
A higher voltage is applied to the CPU, which may cause the burning of the CPU in light cases, or cause the electrodes to be burned out in severe cases.

Abstract

The invention relates to a safe and exact fuel battery voltage detect device, which include single battery voltage detect device, fuel battery controller. The single battery voltage detect device include some difference amplifiers, some multiple-way switch, SCM having CAN bus communication interface. The SCM include an ADC and CPU. The difference amplifiers connect with single battery one by one corresponding, to measure the voltage difference between the two single poles of the fuel battery galvanic pile. The multiple-way switch is on or off by the control of the CPU. The ADC transforms the voltage signals outputted from the difference amplifiers to digital signals. The CPU analyzes the digital signals and gets the monitoring information, then the SCM sends the information out to fuel battery controller.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to fuel cells, in particular to a safe and accurate fuel cell voltage monitoring device. Background technique [0002] An electrochemical fuel cell is a device that converts hydrogen and oxidants into electrical energy and reaction products. The internal core component of the device is the membrane electrode (Membrane Electrode Assembly, referred to as MEA). The membrane electrode (MEA) is composed of a proton exchange membrane and two porous conductive materials, such as carbon paper, sandwiched between the two sides of the membrane. On the two boundary surfaces of the membrane and the carbon paper, there are even and finely dispersed catalysts for initiating electrochemical reactions, such as metal platinum catalysts. Conductive objects can be used on both sides of the membrane electrode to draw the electrons generated during the electrochemical reaction through an external circuit to form a current loop. [0003] At the anode...
