Embodiment 1

[0048] The invention provides a hybrid power supply of a fuel cell and a storage battery and a thermal management method. The hybrid power supply includes a fuel cell, a storage battery, and a heating / cooling module, wherein the heating / cooling module is composed of a pump, a radiator, a heater, etc., and heats The heater can be electric heater, gas heater or oil heater.

[0049] Fuel cells are fuel cells based on different fuels such as hydrogen fuel cells, direct methanol fuel cells, and metal-air fuel cells.

[0050] The storage battery is a rechargeable battery such as a lithium-ion battery, a lead-acid battery, a nickel-metal hydride battery, or a nickel-cadmium battery.

[0051] When the ambient temperature is extremely low (below 40°C) and neither the fuel cell nor the battery can work, the fuel is directly supplied to the gas heater or fuel oil heater to rapidly heat up the coolant, and the coolant circulation system simultaneously realizes the temperature rise of the ...

Embodiment 2

[0061] as attached figure 2 As shown, the hybrid power system includes a metal-air fuel cell and a battery 9 . The metal-air fuel cell and the accumulator 9 are designed as a whole, wherein the accumulator 9 is located in the central area, and the two can be disassembled.

[0062] The central area of ​​the metal-air fuel cell is a structure with accommodating space, specifically a hollow multi-layer structure. From the outside to the inside, there are air electrodes 13, diaphragms 12 and metal electrodes 10 in sequence, and the electrolyte 11 fills the entire inner space. The accumulator 9 is located in the containing space of the metal-air fuel cell, surrounded by the electrolyte 11 of the metal-air fuel cell. The cover of the metal-air fuel cell can be opened, and the metal electrode 10 and the storage battery 9 can be replaced by opening the cover above, so that metal plates are added after the metal is consumed in the metal-air fuel cell to maintain its continuous discha...

Embodiment 3

[0068] as attached figure 1 As shown, the hybrid power system includes a fuel cell 17 , a cable 16 , a heating device 15 and a battery 14 .

[0069] The outer surface of the storage battery 14 is covered with a heating device 15 such as a resistance wire or a heating film. When the ambient temperature is low (-30°C), since the metal-air fuel cell has a good low-temperature self-starting capability, the fuel cell 17 starts to generate electricity first. Utilizing the electric energy output by it, the battery 14 is heated through the heating device 15, and the temperature of the battery is raised, which can solve the problem of poor low-temperature characteristics of the battery; the cable 16 is connected to the fuel cell 17 and the heating device 15, and the heating device 15 is powered by the fuel cell, and the The storage battery 14 is heated, thereby avoiding the problem that the storage battery 14 cannot be started normally when it is replaced at an extremely low temperatur...
