Problems solved by technology

As a result, the length of the entire humidification section or the length of the power generation section increases, thereby reducing the power density of the entire battery pack
[0024] ②The existence of these additional irregular diversion holes makes the processing of the diversion plate and humidification diaphragm of the battery pack humidification section or the diversion plate and electrodes of the power generation section must be specially designed and considered, because the diversion of the humidification section The plates and humidifying diaphragms are completely different from the deflectors and electrodes of the battery segment in shape, and many materials such as sealing rings cannot be uniformly produced and used, thus wasting a lot of materials

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for integrating an internal humidifying proton exchange membrane fuel cell. The internal humidifying proton exchange membrane fuel cell comprises at least two groups of fuel cell stacks and a central current-collecting plate. The fuel cell stacks comprise a humidifying section and a power-generating section. The fuel cell stacks are arranged in the front / back / left / right positions or upper / bottom positions on two sides or on the same side of the central current-collecting plate. The humidifying section of the fuel cell stack is arranged close to the central current-collecting plate. An air inlet, a hydrogen inlet and a cooling water outlet are formed on the current-collecting plate. The air and the hydrogen enter the humidifying section from the central current-collecting plate, further enter the power-generating section after being humidified, then flow out of an end plate at the tail end of the power-generating section. The cooling water flows through a rear current-collecting end plate at the tail end of the power-generating section, cools the power-generating section by means of heat transfer, further flows into the humidifying section to humidify the air and the hydrogen therein, and finally flows out of the central current-collecting plate. Compared with the prior art, the internal humidifying proton exchange membrane fuel cell has the advantages of high effective working area, compact structure, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fuel cell, in particular to an integration method of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell with an internal humidifying device. Background technique [0002] An electrochemical fuel cell is a device that converts hydrogen fuel and oxidant 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...
