燃料电池分类及应用

燃料电池分类及应用燃料电池是一种直接将化学能转换为电能的装置,其工作原理是利用氢气与氧气在催化剂的作用下发生氧化还原反应,产生电能和水。

燃料电池根据催化剂的不同可以分为若干个分类,常见的有酸性燃料电池、碱性燃料电池、聚合物膜燃料电池等。

酸性燃料电池(PEMFC)是最早、也是最具发展前景的燃料电池技术之一。

其催化剂通常采用贵金属(如铂类)催化剂,质子交换膜作为电解质,常使用质子交换膜燃料电池(PEMFC)称呼。

酸性燃料电池的工作温度较低,通常在60-90摄氏度之间。

它具有启动快速、高功率密度、响应速度快、能量转化效率高等特点,因此被广泛应用于汽车、航空航天等领域。

碱性燃料电池(AFC)采用碱性电解质,如氢氧化钾溶液。

其催化剂通常采用铂或镍。

碱性燃料电池的工作温度通常较高,常在50-100摄氏度之间。

碱性燃料电池具有较好的电化学活性和稳定性,然而其难以处理碱性电解质和金属催化剂间的腐蚀问题限制了其实际应用。

聚合物膜燃料电池(PEFC)是一种基于固体聚合物电解质的燃料电池,也称为固体聚合物电解质燃料电池。

与酸性燃料电池类似,PEFC也采用了质子交换膜作为电解质。

PEFC的工作温度通常较高,可达80-140摄氏度。

PEFC具有瞬态响应快、能量转换效率高、启动时间短等优点,但其对纯净氢气的纯度要求较高。

除了以上三种主要的燃料电池分类,还有磷酸燃料电池(PAFC)、碳酸盐燃料电池(MCFC)、氟化物燃料电池(SOFC)等。

磷酸燃料电池(PAFC)使用磷酸液体作为电解质,温度较低,常在150-210摄氏度之间工作,适用于用于大型发电系统。

碳酸盐燃料电池(MCFC)的电解质是碳酸盐盐类溶液,工作温度较高,通常在600-800摄氏度之间,具有高效率、高热功率的特点,但由于温度高,应用范围较为局限。

氟化物燃料电池(SOFC)采用氟化物固体作为电解质,工作温度较高,通常在600-1000摄氏度之间,具有高效率、瞬态响应快等特点,但也面临耐高温和材料选择等方面的技术难题。

5. P HOSPHORIC A CID F UEL C ELLThe phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) was the first fuel cell technology to be commercialized. The number of units built exceeds any other fuel cell technology, with over 85 MW of demonstrators that have been tested, are being tested, or are being fabricated worldwide. Most of the plants are in the 50 to 200 kW capacity range, but large plants of 1 MW and 5 MW have been built. The largest plant operated to date achieved 11 MW of grid quality ac power (1, 2). Major efforts in the U.S. are concentrated on the improvement of PAFCs for stationary, dispersed power plants and on-site cogeneration power plants. The major industrial participants are UTC Fuel Cells in the U.S. and Fuji Electric Corporation, Toshiba Corporation, and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation in Japan.Figure 5-1 depicts the operating configuration of the phosphoric acid cell.

The major U.S. manufacturer, UTC Fuel Cells, has concentrated on improving cell stability and life, and in improving the reliability of system components at reduced cost.The evolution of cell components from 1965 to the present day for PAFCs is summarized in Table 5-1. In the mid-1960s, the conventional porous electrodes were polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) - bonded Pt black, and the loadings were about 9 mg Pt/cm 2. During the past two decades, Pt supported on carbon black has replaced Pt black in porous PTFE-bonded electrode structures as the electro-catalyst. A dramatic reduction in Pt loading has also occurred; the loadings 13 are currently about 0.10 mg Pt/cm 2 in the anode and about 0.50 mg Pt/cm 2 in the cathode.The operating temperatures and acid concentrations of PAFCs have increased to achieve higher cell performance; temperatures of about 200 °C (392 °F) and acid concentrations of 100 percent H 3PO 4 are commonly used today. Although the present practice is to operate at atmospheric pressure, the operating pressure of PAFCs surpassed 8 atm in the 11 MW electric utilitydemonstration plant, confirming an increase in power plant efficiency. However, a number of 13. Assuming a cell voltage of 750 mV at 205 mA/cm 2 (approximate 11 MW design, 8 atmospheres) and the current Pt loadings at the anode and cathode, ~54 g Pt is required per kilowatt of power generated.issues remain whether to design and operate PAFC units at atmospheric vs. pressurized conditions.Primarily, small, multi-kW PAFC power units that were the focus of initial commercial applications led to atmospheric pressure operation. Although pressurization increased efficiency (lower fuel cost), it complicated the power unit - resulting in higher capital cost. The economic trade-off favored simpler, atmospheric operation for early commercial units.Another important issue, independent of power unit size, is that pressure promotes corrosion. Phosphoric acid electrolyte (H3PO4) produces a vapor. This vapor, which forms over the electrolyte, is corrosive to cell locations other than the active cell area. These cell locations are at a mixed voltage (open circuit and cell voltage), that can be over ~0.8V/cell. That is the limit above which corrosion occurs (active area limited to operation under ~0.8 V/cell). An increase in cell total pressure causes the partial pressure of the H3PO4 vapor to increase, causing increased corrosion in the cell. Cell temperature must also be increased with pressurized conditions to produce steam for the steam reformer (3).A major breakthrough in PAFC technology that occurred in the late 1960s was the development of carbon black and graphite for cell construction materials; this and other developments are reviewed by Appleby (4) and Kordesch (5). Carbon black and graphite were sufficiently stable to replace the more expensive gold-plated tantalum cell hardware used at the time. The use of high-surface-area graphite to support Pt permitted a dramatic reduction in Pt loading without sacrificing electrode performance. It was reported (4) that "without graphite, a reasonably inexpensive acid fuel cell would be impossible, since no other material combines the necessary properties of electronic conductivity, good corrosion resistance, low density, surface properties (especially in high area form) and, above all, low cost." However, carbon corrosion and Pt dissolution become an issue at cell voltages above ~0.8 V. Consequently, low current densities at cell voltage above 0.8 V and hot idle at open circuit potential should be avoided.The porous electrodes used in PAFCs have been described extensively in patent literature (6); see also the review by Kordesch (5). These electrodes contain a mixture of electro-catalyst supported on carbon black and a polymeric binder, usually PTFE (30 to 50 wt percent). The PTFE binds the carbon black particles together to form an integral, but porous, structure that is supported on a porous graphite substrate. The graphite structure serves as a support for the electro-catalyst layer, as well as the current collector. A typical graphite structure used in PAFCs has an initial porosity of about 90 percent, which is reduced to about 60 percent by impregnation with 40 wt percent PTFE. This wet-proof graphite structure contains macropores of 3 to 50 µm diameter (median pore diameter of about 12.5 µm) and micropores with a median pore diameter of about 34 Å for gas permeability. The composite structure, consisting of a carbon black/PTFE layer on the graphite substrate, forms a stable, three-phase interface in the fuel cell, with H3PO4 electrolyte on one side (electro-catalyst side) and the reactant gas environment on the other.Table 5-1 Evolution of Cell Component Technology for Phosphoric Acid Fuel CellsComponent ca. 1965 ca. 1975 Current Status a Anode PTFE-bonded Pt black PTFE-bonded Pt/C PTFE-bonded Pt/CXC-72aVulcan9 mg/cm20.25 mg Pt/cm20.25 mg Pt/cm2 Cathode PTFE-bonded Pt black PTFE-bonded Pt/C PTFE-bonded Pt/CXC-72aVulcan9 mg/cm20.5 mg Pt/cm20.5 mg Pt/cm2Ta mesh screen Graphite Structure Graphite Structure ElectrodeSupportGlass fiber paper PTFE-bonded SiC PTFE-bonded SiC ElectrolyteSupportElectrolyte 85 percent H3PO495 percent H3PO4100 percent H3PO4Porous graphite plate.

In some designs, the bipolar plate also contains gas channels that feed the reactant gases to the porous electrodes and remove the reaction products and inerts. Bipolar plates made from graphite resin mixtures that are carbonized at low temperature (~900 °C/1,652 °F) are not suitable because of their rapid degradation in PAFC operating environments (7, 8). However, corrosion stability is improved by heat treatment to 2,700 °C (4,892 °F) (8), i.e., the corrosion current is reduced by two orders of magnitude at 0.8 V in 97 percent H3PO4 at 190°C (374 °F) and 4.8 atm (70.5 psi). The all-graphite bipolar plates are sufficiently corrosion-resistant for a projected life of 40,000 hours in PAFCs, but they are still relatively costly to produce.Several designs for the bipolar plate and ancillary stack components are used by fuel cell developers, and these are described in detail (9, 10, 11, 12). A typical PAFC stack contains cells connected in series to obtain the practical voltage level desired for the load. In such an arrangement, individual cells are stacked with bipolar plates between the cells. The bipolar plates used in early PAFCs consisted of a single piece of graphite with gas channels machined on either side to direct the flow of fuel and oxidant. Currently, both bipolar plates of the previous design and new designs consisting of several components are being considered. In the multi-component bipolar plates, a thin impervious plate separates the reactant gases in adjacent cells in the stack, andseparate porous plates with ribbed channels are used to direct gas flow. In a cell stack, the impervious plate is subdivided into two parts, and each joins one of the porous plates. The electrolyte vaporizes so that a portion of H3PO4 escapes from the cell in the air stream over time. An electrolyte reservoir plate (ERP), made of porous graphite, provides enough electrolyte to achieve a 40,000-hour cell life goal (there is no electrolyte replacement). The ERP also accommodates increases in electrolyte volume due to an increase in H2O, so the porous graphite electrodes don’t flood. These fluctuations in electrolyte volume occur during start-up and during transient operation. The porous structure, which allows rapid gas transport, is also used to store additional acid to replenish the supply lost by evaporation during the cell operating life.In PAFC stacks, provisions must be included to remove heat generated during cell operation. In practice, heat has been removed by either liquid (two-phase water or a dielectric fluid) or gas (air) coolants that are routed through cooling channels located (usually about every fifth cell) in the cell stack. Liquid cooling requires complex manifolds and connections, but better heat removal is achieved than with air-cooling. The advantage of gas cooling is its simplicity, reliability, and relatively low cost. However, the size of the cell is limited, and the air-cooling passages must be much larger than the liquid- cooling passages.Improvements in state-of-the-art phosphoric acid cells are illustrated by Figure 5-2. Performance by the ~1 m2 (10 ft2) short stack, (f), results in a power density of nearly 0.31 W/cm2.Figure 5-2 Improvement in the Performance of H2-Rich Fuel/Air PAFCsa - 1977: 190 °C, 3 atm, Pt loading of 0.75 mg/cm2 on each electrode (13)b - 1981: 190 °C, 3.4 atm, cathode Pt loading of 0.5 mg/cm2 (14)c - 1981: 205 °C, 6.3 atm, cathode Pt loading of 0.5 mg/cm2 (14)d - 1984: 205 °C, 8 atm, electro-catalyst loading was not specified (15)e - 1992: 205 °C, 8 atm, 10 ft2 short stack, 200 hrs, electro-catalyst loading not specified (16)f - 1992: 205 °C, 8 atm, subscale cells, electro-catalyst loading not specified (16)5.1.2Development ComponentsPhosphoric acid electrode/electrolyte technology has reached a level of maturity at which developers commit resources for commercial capacity, multi-unit demonstrations and pre-prototype installations. UTC Fuel Cells has 25 (200 kW) atmospheric pressure power plants that have operated between 30,000 to 40,000 hours. Most cell parts are graphite, and there has been no electrolyte replacement over the cell life of 40,000 hours. Grid-independent units undergo extensive cycling. Cell components are manufactured at scale and in large quantities, demonstrating confidence that predicted performance will be met (3). However, further increases in power density and reduced cost are needed to achieve economic competitiveness with other energy technologies, as expressed in the early 1990s (17, 18). Fuel cell developers continue to address these issues.In 1992, UTC Fuel Cells' predecessor, International Fuel Cells, completed a government-sponsored, advanced water-cooled PAFC development project to improve the performance andreduce the cost of both its atmospheric and pressurized technology for both on-site and utilityapplications (16). The project focused on five major activities: 1) produce a conceptual design of a large stack with a goal of 175 W/ft2 (0.188 W/cm2), 40,000 hour useful life, and a stack cost of less than $400/kW; 2) test pressurized Configuration "B" single cells developed in a previous program, but improved with proprietary design advances in substrates, electrolyte reservoir plates, catalysts, seals, and electrolyte matrix to demonstrate the 175 W/ft2 (0.188 W/cm2) power density goal; 3) test a pressurized short stack with subscale size, improved component cells, and additional improvements in the integral separators and coolers to confirm the stack design; 4) test a pressurized short stack of improved full-size cell components, nominal 10 ft2 size (approximately 1 m2), to demonstrate the 175 W/ft2 (0.188 W/cm2) power density goal, and 5) test an advanced atmospheric "on-site" power unit stack with the improved components.A conceptual design of an improved technology stack, operating at 120 psi (8.2 atm) and 405 °F (207 °C), was produced based on cell and stack development tests. The stack was designed for 355 10 ft2 (approximately 1 m2) cells to produce over 1 MW dc power in the same physical envelope as the 670 kW stack used in the 11 MW PAFC plant built for Tokyo Electric Power. The improvements made to the design were tested in single cells and in subscale and full size short stacks.Table 5-2 summarizes the results. Single cells achieved an initial performance of 0.75 volts/cell at a current density of 400 A/ft2 (431 mA/cm2) at 8.2 atm and 207 °C. The power density,300 W/ft2 (0.323 W/cm2), was well above the project goal. Several cells were operated to600 A/ft2 (645 mA/cm2), achieving up to 0.66 volts/cell. The flat plate component designs were verified in a subscale stack prior to fabricating the full size short stack. The pressurized short stack of 10 ft2 cells achieved a performance of 285 W/ft2 (0.307 W/cm2). Although the average cell performance, 0.71 volts/cell at 400 A/ft2 (431 mA/cm2), was not as high as the single cell tests, the performance was 65 percent higher than the project goal. Figure 5-3 presents single cell and stack performance data for pressurized operation. The stack was tested for over3,000 hours. For reference purposes, Tokyo Electric Power Company's 11 MW power plant, operational in 1991, had an average cell performance of approximately 0.75 volts/cell at190 mA/cm2 or 0.142 W/cm2 (19).Table 5-2 Advanced PAFC PerformanceAverage Cell Voltage, VCurrent Density mA/cm 2 Power Density W/cm 2 IFC Pressurized:Project GoalSingle CellsFull Size Short Stack11 MW Reference0.75 to 0.66 0.71 0.75 431 to 645 431 190 0.188 0.323 0.307 0.142 IFC Atmospheric:Single CellsFull Size Short Stack0.75 0.65 242 215 0.182 0.139 Mitsubishi Electric AtmosphericSingle Cells 0.65 300 0.195Figure 5-3 Advanced Water-Cooled PAFC Performance (16)The atmospheric pressure short stack, consisting of 32 cells, obtained an initial performance of 0.65 volts/cell at 200 A/ft 2 (215 mA/cm 2) or 0.139 W/cm 2. The performance degradation rate was less than 4 mV/1,000 hours during the 4,500 hour test. Single cells, tested at atmospheric conditions, achieved a 500 hour performance of approximately 0.75 volts/cell at 225 A/ft 2 (242 mA/cm 2) or 0.182 W/cm 2.Mitsubishi Electric Corporation investigated alloyed catalysts, processes to produce thinnerelectrolytes, and increased utilization of the catalyst layer (20). These improvements resulted in an initial atmospheric performance of 0.65 mV at 300 mA/cm 2 or 0.195 W/cm 2, which was higher than the UTC Fuel Cells' performance mentioned above (presented in Table 5-2 for comparison). Note that this performance was obtained using small 100 cm 2 cells and may not yet have beendemonstrated with full-scale cells in stacks. Approaches to increase life are to use series fuel gasflow in the stack to alleviate corrosion, provide well-balanced micropore size reservoirs to avoidelectrolyte flooding, and use a high corrosion resistant carbon support for the cathode catalyst.These improvements resulted in the lowest PAFC degradation rate publicly acknowledged:2 mV/1,000 hours for 10,000 hours at 200 to 250 mA/cm2 in a short stack with 3,600 cm2 areacells. UTC Fuel Cells reported a similar degradation rate in 2002 for power units operating up to40,000 hours (3).Several important technology development efforts for which details have been published includecatalyst improvements, advanced gas diffusion electrode development, and tests on materials thatoffer better carbon corrosion protection. Transition metal (e.g., iron, cobalt) organic macrocycles14from the families of tetramethoxyphenylporphyrins (TMPP), phthalocyanines (PC),tetraazaannulenes (TAA) and tetraphenylporphyrins (TPP) have been evaluated as O2-reductionelectro-catalysts in PAFCs. One major problem with these organic macrocycles is their limitedchemical stability in hot concentrated phosphoric acid. However, after heat treatment of theorganic macrocycle (i.e., CoTAA, CoPC, CoTMPP, FePC, FeTMPP) on carbon at about 500 to 800 °C (932 to1,472 °F), the pyrolyzed residue exhibits electro-catalytic activity that, in some instances, is comparable to that of Pt and has promising stability, at least up to about 100 °C/212 °F (21). Another successful approach for enhancing the electro-catalysis of O2 reduction is to alloy Pt with transition metals such as Ti (22), Cr (23), V (24), Zr, and Ta (24). The enhancement inelectro-catalytic activity has been explained by a correlation between the optimumnearest-neighbor distance of the elements in the alloy and the bond length in O2 (25). Conventional cathode catalysts comprise either platinum or platinum alloys supported on conducting carbon black at 10 wt percent platinum. Present platinum loadings on the anode and cathode are 0.1 mg/cm2 and 0.5 mg/cm2, respectively (12, 16). It has been suggested by Ito, et al., that the amount of platinum may have been reduced to the extent that it might be cost effective to increase the amount of platinum loading on the cathode (26). However, a problem exists in that fuel cell stack developers have not experienced satisfactory performance improvements when increasing the platinum loading. Johnson Matthey Technology Centre (J-M) presented data that resulted in improved performance nearly in direct proportion to that expected based on the increase in platinum (27). Initial tests by J-M confirmed previous results - that using platinum alloy catalyst with a 10 wt percent net platinum loading improves performance. Platinum/nickel alloy catalysts yielded a 49 wt percent increase in specific activity over pure platinum. This translated into a39 mV improvement in the air electrode performance at 200 mA/cm2.Johnson Matthey then determined that the platinum loading in the alloyed catalyst could beincreased up to 30 wt percent while retaining the same amount of platinum without any decrease inspecific activity or performance; the amount of nickel, hence the total amount of alloyed catalyst,decreased. Next, J-M researchers increased the amount of platinum from 10 to 30 wt percent whilekeeping the same nickel catalyst loading. The total amount of alloyed catalyst increased in thiscase. Results showed an additional 36 wt percent increase in specific activity, which providedanother 41 mV increase at 200 mA/cm2. The ideal voltage increase would have been 46 mV forthis increase in platinum. Thus, the performance increase obtained experimentally was nearly in 14. See Reference 21 for literature survey.direct proportion to the theoretical amount expected. The type of carbon support did not seem tobe a major factor, based on using several typical supports during the tests.The anode of a phosphoric acid fuel cell is subject to a reduction in performance when even lowamounts of contaminants are preferentially absorbed on the noble catalysts. Yet, hydrogen-richfuel gases, other than pure hydrogen, are produced with contaminant levels well in excess of theanode's tolerance limit. Of particular concern are CO, COS, and H2S in the fuel gas. The fuel stream in a state-of-the-art PAFC anode, operating at approximately 200 °C (392 °F), must contain 1 vol percent or less of CO (12), less than 50 ppmv of COS plus H2S, and less than 20 ppmv ofH2S (28). Current practice is to place COS and H2S cleanup systems and CO shift converters priorto the cell (normally in the fuel processor before reforming) to reduce the fuel stream contaminantlevels to the required amounts. Giner, Inc. performed experiments to develop a contaminant-tolerant anode catalyst in order to reduce or eliminate the cleanup equipment (29). An anodecatalyst, G87A-17-2, was identified that resulted in only a 24 mV loss from reference when exposed to a 75 percent H2, 1 percent CO, 24 percent CO2, 80 ppm H2S gas mixture at 190 °C (374 °F), 85 percent fuel utilization, and 200 mA/cm2. A baseline anode experienced a 36 mV loss from the reference at the same conditions. At 9.2 atm (120 psi) pressure, the anode loss was only 19 mV at 190 °C (374 °F) and 17 mV at 210 °C (410 °F) (compared with pure H2) with a gas of 71percent H2, 5 percent CO, 24 percent CO2, and 200 ppm H2S. Economic studies comparing thetradeoff between decreased cell performance with increased savings in plant cost showed noadvantage when the new anode catalyst was used with gas containing 1 percent CO/200 ppm H2S.A $7/kW increase resulted with the 5 percent CO gas (compared to a 1 percent CO gas) at a50 MW size. Some savings would result by eliminating the low temperature shift converter. Thereal value of the catalyst may be its ability to tolerate excessive CO and H2S concentrations duringfuel processor upsets, and to simplify the system by eliminating equipment.As previously mentioned, state-of-the-art gas diffusion electrodes are configured to provide anelectrolyte network and a gas network formed with the mixture of carbon black and PTFE. In the electrodes, carbon black agglomerates, consisting of small primary particles 0.02 to 0.04 µm, are mixed with much larger PTFE particles of ~0.3 µm. The carbon black surface may not be covered completely by the PTFE because of the large size of conventional PTFE particles. The space in the agglomerates or the space between the agglomerates and PTFE may act as gas networks at the initial stage of operation, but fill with electrolyte eventually because of the small contact angle of carbon black, uncovered with PTFE, to electrolyte (<90°), resulting in the degradation of cell performance. Attempts to solve this flooding problem by increasing the PTFE content have not been successful because of the offset in performance resulting from the reduction of catalyst utilization. Higher performance and longer lifetime of electrodes are intrinsically at odds, and there is a limit to the improvement in performance over life by optimizing PTFE content in the state-of-the-art electrode structures. Watanabe, et al. (30) proposed preparing an electrode utilizing 100 percent of catalyst clusters, where the functions of gas diffusion electrodes were allotted completely to a hydrophilic, catalyzed carbon black and a wet-proofed carbon black. The former worked as a fine electrolyte network, and the latter worked as a gas-supplying network in a reaction layer. Higher utilization of catalyst clusters and longer life at the reaction layer were expected, compared to state-of-the-art electrodes consisting of the uniform mixture of catalyzed carbon black and PTFE particles. The iR-free electrode potentials for the reduction of oxygen andair at 200 mA/cm2 on the advanced electrode were 10 mV higher than those of the conventional electrode.There is a trade-off between high power density and cell life performance. One of the major causes of declining cell performance over its life is that electrode flooding and drying, caused by migration of phosphoric acid between the matrix and the electrodes, occurs during cell load cycling. Researchers at Fuji Electric addressed two approaches to improve cell life performance while keeping power density high (31). In one, the wettability of the cathode and anode were optimized, and in the other a heat treatment was applied to the carbon support for the cathode catalyst. During tests, it was observed that a cell with low cathode wettability and high anode wettability was more than 50 mV higher than a cell with the reverse wetting conditions after 40 start/stop cycles.The use of carbon black with large surface area to improve platinum dispersion on supports was investigated as a method to increase the power density of a cell (32). However, some large surface area carbon blacks are fairly corrosive in hot potassium acid, resulting in a loss of catalytic activity. The corrosivity of the carbon support affects both the rate of catalyst loss and electrode flooding and, in turn, the life performance of a cell. Furnace black has been heat treated at high temperature by Fuji Electric to increase its resistance to corrosion. It was found that corrosion could be reduced and cell life performance improved by heat treating carbon supports at high temperature, at least to around 3,000 °C (5,432 °F).More recently, UTC Fuel Cells cites improvements to achieve 40,000 hour cell life through better cell temperature control, increasing H3PO4 inventory, and incorporating electrolyte reservoir plates in the cell stack (3).5.2PerformanceThere have been only minor changes in documented cell performance since the mid-1980s - mostly due to the operating conditions of the cell. The changes are reported in performance trends shown in this section that were primarily gained from contracts that UTC Fuel Cells had with the Department of Energy or outside institutions. New, proprietary PAFC performance data may likely have been observed by the manufacturer (3).Cell performance for any fuel cell is a function of pressure, temperature, reactant gas composition, and fuel utilization. In addition, performance can be adversely affected by impurities in both the fuel and oxidant gases.The sources of polarization in PAFCs (with cathode and anode Pt loadings of 0.5 mg Pt/cm2, 180 °C, 1 atm, 100 percent H3PO4) were discussed in Section 2 and were illustrated as half cell performance in Figure 2-4. From Figure 2-4 it is clear that the major polarization occurs at the cathode, and furthermore, the polarization is greater with air (560 mV at 300 mA/cm2) than with pure oxygen (480 mV at 300 mA/cm2) because of dilution of the reactant. The anode exhibits very low polarization (-4 mV/100 mA/cm2) on pure H2, and increases when CO is present in the fuel gas. The ohmic (iR) loss in PAFCs is also relatively small, amounting to about 12 mV at 100mA/cm2.Typical PAFCs will generally operate in the range of 100 to 400 mA/cm 2 at 600 to 800 mV/cell. Voltage and power constraints arise from increased corrosion of platinum and carbon components at cell potentials above approximately 800 mV.5.2.1 Effect of PressureEven though pressure operation is not being pursued, it is still of interest for possible future development. It is well known that an increase in the cell operating pressure enhances the performance of PAFCs (11, 33, 34). The theoretical change in voltage (∆V P ) as a function of pressure (P) is expressed as2P 1(3)(2.3RT)P (mV) = log V 2P ∆F (5-4)where 3(2.3)1382RT mV =F at 190°C (374 °F). Experimental data (35) reported that the effect of pressure on cell performance at 190°C (374 °F) and 323 mA/cm 2 is correlated by the equation:2P 1P (mV) = 146 log V P ∆ (5-5)where P 1 and P 2 are different cell pressures. The experimental data (35) also suggest that Equation (5-5) is a reasonable approximation for a temperature range of 177 °C < T < 218 °C (351 °F < T < 424 °F) and a pressure range of 1 atm < P < 10 atm (14.7 psi < P < 147.0 psi). Data from Appleby (14) in Figure 5-2 indicate that the voltage gain observed by increasing the pressure from3.4 atm (190 °C) to 6.3 atm (205 °C) is about 44 mV. According to Equation (5-5), the voltage gain calculated for this increase in pressure at 190 °C (374 °F) is 39 mV 15, which is in reasonable agreement with experimental data in Figure 5-2. Measurements (33) of ∆V P for an increase in pressure from4.7 to 9.2 atm (69.1 to 135.2 psia) in a cell at 190 °C (374 °F) show that ∆V P is a function of current density, increasing from 35 mV at 100 mA/cm 2 to 42 mV at 400 mA/cm 2 (50 percent O 2 utilization with air oxidant, 85 percent H 2 utilization with pure H 2 fuel). From Equation (5-4), ∆V p is 43 mV for an increase in pressure from 4.7 to 9.2 atm (69.1 to 135.2 psia) at 190 °C (374 °F), which is very close to the experimental value obtained at 400 mA/cm 2. Other measurements (36) for the same increase in pressure from 4.7 to 9.2 atm (69.1 to 135.2 psia), but at a temperature of 210 °C (410 °F) show less agreement between the experimental data and Equation (5-4).The improvement in cell performance at higher pressure and high current density can be attributed to a lower diffusion polarization at the cathode and an increase in the reversible cell potential. In addition, pressurization decreases activation polarization at the cathode because of the increased oxygen and water partial pressures. If the partial pressure of water is allowed to increase, a lower acid concentration will result. This will increase ionic conductivity and bring about a higher exchange current density. The net outcome is a reduction in ohmic losses. It was reported (33) that an increase in cell pressure (100 percent H 3PO 4, 169 °C (336 °F)) from 1 to 4.4 atm (14.7 to15. The difference in temperature between 190 and 205 °C is disregarded so Equation (5-5) is assumed to be valid at both temperatures.。

一个典型的燃料电池电堆大约由100个燃料电池单元串联构成。

但是,通常不会制造600个电池单元串联的电堆,特别是在用于汽车的燃料电池电堆领域。

一个燃料电池单元电压监控仪(CVM )用于测量布置成电堆形式发电装置中的每一个电池单元的电压。

采用这种测量方法可以成电堆中识别出有问题的电池单元,对现场使用或带负荷运行的电堆进行电池单元长期运行特性的表征。

采用差分测量方法来测量每一个电池单元的电压。

电池单元本身的电压很低,对于仪器的内部地线,每个差分输入的引线脚上实际上可以测得数百伏特的电压。

这种情况被称为共模电压。

大多数数据采集系统(DAQ )没有进行隔离,因此输入电压受到限制,以免插卡被永久性地损坏,通常仅为5-10V 。

此外,非隔离的设备常常怀会受到接地回路的影响。

为了克服在燃料电池单元电压监控仪有可能遇到的共模电压高的困难,就需要一种高电压隔离栅。

由于内部的信号调理或缓冲器由第三方供应,目前许多数据采集系统(DAQ )带有外部缓冲器,这样不仅缩小了包装的空间和成本,还能够维持尽可能高的信号分辨率和精度。

解决的方法:与当今流行的任何固态器件数据采集系统相比,MX-100型数据采集仪能提供最高水平的通道-地线、模块-模块、通道-通道的隔离。

由于其采用了模块结构以及标准的软件,用MX-100就可以容易地监控成百上千个燃料电池单元的电压。

MX100 DAQMaster模块1模块(n/10)模块间最大隔离电压 Vmax =600Vrms/Vdc从地计Vmax =600Vrms/Vdc应用说明燃料电池单元的电压监控(CVM )解决方法:要使通道数高的数据采集系统达到高电压隔离的要求在设计上是一种挑战,因为,大多数数据采集模块只使用一个带多路转换开关或扫描前端器件的A-D ,因此,高共模电压的信号在由隔离变压器和A-D 转换器进行隔离和模数转换前,首先要通过开关继电器。

MX1400采用了一种申请了专利的 Yokogawa 固态继电器(SSR )技术,允许连续负载电压达到1500VDC 。

此外,MX-100配备的隔离变压器和A-D 转换器也采用申请有专利的Yokogawa 设计。

其它数据采集系统所提供的高电压隔离是采用电子—机械继电器,这种结构存在开关反跳、整定时间长和需要经常维护等问题。

总之,MX100数据采集仪提供了空前的隔离能力和操作特性,其标准模块带有可以同时采样的四个采样通道,各通道之间相互隔离。

通常用螺栓来紧固和压紧电堆。

作用在每一个螺栓上的压力会影响到电堆的电化学过程,从而影响到电堆的电压输出。

为了对电堆的应力与电堆或电池单元的电压的关系进行测试和调节,首先需要对应力作定量的测定。

在机电一体化和消费类产品测试中广泛使用应力传感器。

它是一种韦斯顿电桥,可以是四臂、两臂或一臂为测量臂的形式。

在两臂或一臂为测量臂的应用场合,桥路的其它臂为高精度的电阻。

完整的四臂桥路需要电压激励。

此外,所测量的信号值通常仅为几个毫伏,所以为了能够高精度的显示应力的大小,需要对信号进行适当的放大和滤波。

解决的方法:WE7000是一种网络式、模块化的数据采集系统,能通过一台微机进行高精度的测量和控制。

采用WE7245应力计测量模块,系统就可以容易地检测或分析从四个通道至上百个通道的应力计的应力分布信号。

电堆应力分析衬垫和封装有效栅长末端回路 电阻栅定位标志末端回路焊接接点韦斯顿 电桥电路O/PO/PEE 测量桥路应变片传感器应力测定的特点:• 采样速度100 kS/sec, 同时对各通道进行采样(各通道有独立的A/D转换器),• 支持单一测量臂,双臂或四臂测量臂桥路设计,• 自动平衡和分支路校正,• 120 Ohm, 350 Ohm, 或定制的电桥测量头,• 激励电压: 各通道可以在2V, 5V 或10V之间选择。

• 各通道间完全隔离完全消除了接地回路和共模电压的影响,• 向PC发送连续的数据流,还可以选用每通道最高到一百万个采样值的模块寄存器。

• 内置消除噪声的硬件低通滤波器• 每个通道都可以重新设置成电压输入通道,而不仅仅是应力信号通道。

电堆应力分析(续)应用:不管采用何种燃料电池(质子交换膜燃料电池(PEM),固体氧化物燃料电池(SOFC)等),为了优化电堆的性能和避免过热,最为关键的是热能的和监控和管理。

因此温度的测量贯穿到整个燃料电池系统,从电堆本身的温度到所供气体的温度,还包括重整器、逆变器的温度,在某些情况下还可能包括联合发电的其它部件。

因此,所采用的热电偶或电阻温度传感器(RTD)的通道数常常会达到数百个。

所以,一种紧凑的、模块化的和可以重新设置的数据采集系统才是最为理想的测量工具。

此外,用热电偶测量燃料电池温度和逆变器输出的温度,和电池单元的电压监控(CVM)一样,也存在共模电压高的问题,为了避免仪器的损坏,同样也必须采取必要的预防措施。

对于燃料电池的测试而言,由于热电偶成本低廉和需要检测的通道数较多,通常选择热电偶,而不选择电阻温度传感器(RTD)。

同时应当说明,不同数据采集系统的热电偶测量误差可能不同,从± 0.5°C 到± 5°C 或更高。

解决的方法:MX100 DAQ Master数据采集系统适合于各种输入信号,是专门为各种分度号热电偶而设计的。

每个模块有10个通道,通过增加模块的数量可以很容易地达到将测量系统扩大到成百上千个通道,可以用一台PC通过以太网(Ethernet)监控所有的模块。

温度测量的特点:• 支持的热电偶分度号包括:R, S, B, K, E, J, T, L, U, N, W, KpvsAu7Fe,• 带冷端补偿,• 自动检测热电偶开路/烧毁,• 支持远程参考接点补偿(RJC),• 测量分辨率为0.1°C。

• RTD 测量时使用1mA 或2mA 激励电流,• 支持以下分度号的电阻温度检测器(RTD):Pt100, JPt100, Hi-res Pt100, Hi-res,JPt100, Ni100SAMA, Ni100DIN, Ni120, Pt50, Cu10GE, Cu10L&N, Cu10WEED, Cu10BAILEY, J263B电堆的温度分布测定应用:燃料电池测试站的核心部分就是一个过程控制和监测系统。

这些控制I/O 信集中送如一台PC 机,以这台PC 机为测试仪的主要用户界面。
