Abstract

The invention provides a membrane nitrogen production and fuel cell coupled fuel tank inerting system, which is used for inerting a fuel tank by taking low-oxygen-content air generated by the system as inert gas besides providing electric energy for an airplane after the system is loaded on the airplane, so that the fuel tank is in a non-combustible state, the generated heat can be used for heating air and water or preheating fuel, the generated water can be used for domestic water or coolant and the like after being treated, and when inert gas generated by the fuel cell is insufficient to inert the fuel tank, the membrane inerting system is started to ensure that the fuel tank is always in a non-combustible state. According to the invention, the airborne power generation efficiency can beeffectively improved, the product of the fuel cell is fully utilized, the resource utilization rate is high, the engine air entraining amount of the membrane inerting system is reduced, the compensation loss is reduced, and the membrane nitrogen production and fuel cell coupled fuel tank inerting system is suitable for occasions with insufficient air entraining or low air entraining pressure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aviation systems, and relates to the coupling of a fuel cell and an aircraft fuel tank inerting system, in particular to a fuel tank inerting system coupled with membrane nitrogen production and a fuel cell. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell system is an electrochemical device that directly converts chemical energy present in fuels and oxidants into electrical energy. As a new type of chemical power source, fuel cell is the fourth power generation method after thermal power, hydropower and nuclear power. It has the advantages of high energy conversion efficiency, low emission of harmful gas SOx, NOx and noise, wide application range and fast load response. The basic principle is: the fuel gas (hydrogen, methane, etc.) undergoes an oxidation reaction under the action of the anode catalyst to generate cations and give free electrons; the oxide (usually oxygen) undergoes a reduction reaction under t...
