Embodiment Construction

[0032] An embodiment is a 40kw fuel cell module with hydrothermal management capability.

[0033] There are two 20kw fuel cell stacks, each cell stack has 150 cells, the operating pressure is lower than 100kpa, its decay rate Vt is 10mV / h, the resistance index of the air side is 20kpa@50Nm3 / h, and the resistance index of the hydrogen side is 25kpa @10Nm3 / h.

[0034] The air circuit, the hydrogen circuit and the cooling medium circuit are connected in parallel, and the power output is connected in parallel, such as Figure 9 As shown, 1001 and 1002 are fuel cell stacks respectively, the air inlet 2301 of the fuel cell stack 1001 is connected to the air inlet 2302 of the fuel cell stack 1002 through the air distribution unit 230, and the air outlet 2303 of the fuel cell stack 1001 is connected to the fuel cell stack 1001 through the air distribution unit 230 The outlet 2304 of the air path of the stack 1002 is connected, the hydrogen inlet 3301 of the fuel cell stack 1001 is con...

Abstract

The invention discloses a fuel cell module with water and thermal management capacity, comprising a fuel cell pile, a distribution unit, a power management unit, a voltage reducing and heating submodule, a liquid water management submodule, an external packing submodule and other parts. The distribution unit distributes hydrogen, air and a cooling medium which enter the modules into each single pile; the power management unit carries out state detection and management on the modules and controls the connection and the disconnection of power output; the voltage reducing and heating submodule regulates the temperature of the fuel cell pile and controls the output voltage; the liquid water management submodule carries out liquid water separation on the hydrogen and the air which enter a fuelcell pile module and discharges the liquid water at the hydrogen side; and the external packing submodule realizes water and dust prevention and heat preservation of the fuel cell pile module and discharges the hydrogen and steam in a packing module. The invention has the advantages that the fuel cell module can rapidly enter the ideal working state, thereby being beneficial to improving the performance, the stability, the safety and the like of the fuel cell module.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fuel cells, in particular to a fuel cell module. Background technique [0002] A traditional fuel cell module usually only includes a fuel cell stack, a hydrogen gas distribution unit, an air distribution unit, a cooling medium distribution unit, a cell voltage detection unit, and a power output unit. The disadvantage of the traditional fuel cell module is that there is no water and heat management function inside the module, which is not conducive to the fuel cell entering the ideal working state as soon as possible when it is in use. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fuel cell module structure with hydrothermal self-management capability, so that the fuel cell module can quickly enter an ideal working state. [0004] The technical solution of the present invention is: a fuel cell module with water and heat management capability, including a fuel cell stack,...
