| 摘要： | In traditional PEM fuel cells (PEMFCs), the unreacted hydrogen gas at the anode outlet is recovered using a mechanical pump or centrifuge and returned to the inlet side for reuse. However, the energy consumed by the pump reduces the system efficiency. Accordingly, the present study considers a 3-kW PEMFC in which the unreacted hydrogen gas is recovered passively from the exhaust stream using a Venturi ejector. An integrated simulation framework is constructed consisting of a COMSOL model of the ejector unit and a MATLAB/Simulink model of the hydrogen recovery system. The simulation framework is used to examine the temperature, pressure and velocity distributions within the ejector for various values of the inlet hydrogen pressure. The stability of the hydrogen supply in PEMFC systems incorporating a passive ejector system and a traditional mechanical hy- drogen recovery system, respectively, is then investigated and compared. It is shown that the ejector stabilizes the hydrogen supply more quickly than the traditional mechanical system. As a result, it not only improves the hydrogen utilization rate and environmental safety of the PEMFC system, but also reduces the overall hydrogen consumption. The simulation results for the I-V performance of the PEMFC with the Venturi ejector are shown to be in good qualitative agreement with the experimental results. Overall, the numerical framework constructed in the present study provides a useful tool for exploring the effects of the ejector design parameters on the hydrogen recovery performance and determining the operating conditions which maximize the performance of the PEMFC system. |

| 摘要： | The objective of this study was to simulate a proton-electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system, namely a PEMFC stack, an anode gas supply subsystem, an anode gas-recovery subsystem, a cathode gas supply subsystem, and a tail gas exhaustion subsystem. In addition, this paper presents an analysis of the efficiency of combined heat and power (CHP) systems. MATLAB and Simulink were employed for dynamic simulation and statistical analysis. The rates of active and the passive anode hydrogen recirculation were considered to elucidate the mechanism of hydrogen circulation. When recovery involved diverse recovery mechanisms, the recirculation rate was affected by the pressure at the hydrogen outlet of the PEMFC system. The greater the pressure was at that outlet, the higher the recovery rate was. In the hydrogen recovery system, when the temperature of the hydrogen supply end remained the same, increasing the temperature of the gas supply end increased the efficiency of the fuel cells; fixing the flow of the hydrogen supply end and increasing the temperature of the hydrogen supply end increased the efficiency of the PEMFC system. A calculation of the efficiency of the recovery system indicated that the thermal efficiency of the fuel cells exceeded 35%, the power generation efficiency exceeded 45%, and the efficiency of the CHP system exceeded 80%. |

| 摘要： | The stuffing box with pedestal (SBP) is a major component in centrifugal pumps (CPs). It is responsible for the transfer of load generated in the CP to the baseplate of the pump and finally to the ground. SBPs are usually fabricated using investment casting; however, this process is prone to residual casting defects, which can reduce mechanical strength and increase the likelihood of crack formation following long-term usage. In this study, the AnyCasting numerical simulation software package was used to optimize the investment parameters for the casting of an SBP in SUS304 alloy. Optimization efforts targeted the shrinkage cavity (based on retained melt modulus) and porosity defects (based on Niyama criterion). The results of preliminary simulations and experiments informed the establishment of five casting schemes for subsequent simulation. We used virtual thermodynamic sensors to determine the rate and direction of solidification in the mold cavity, and also investigated variations in the velocity of the molten metal at the inlets of the gating system as a function of time. The optimal casting parameters derived in simulations were assessed by fabricating an SBP via investment casting in a domestic foundry. Nondestructive testing based on X-ray analysis revealed none of the detrimental defects commonly associated with this type of casting. |

| 摘要： | Following long-term continuous operation, the outlet regions of the vaporizer coils in methanol steam reformers become clogged as the result of particle deposition. The resulting reduction in the cross-sectional area of the coil impedes the outlet flow of the vaporized gas and may cause serious operational problems, including a reduced hydrogen production efficiency, power surging, and even system shutdown. Accordingly, the present study performs numerical simulations to investigate the clogging phenomenon in the vaporizer coil of a methanol steam reformer operated on five different fuels, namely methanol-water fuels with molar ratios of 75%:25%, 62%:38%, and 50%:50%, respectively, pure methanol fuel, and pure ethanol. For each fuel, the simulations investigate the velocity field distribution within the coil, the clogging formation in the outlet region of the coil, and the particle penetration probability. The results show that of the five fuels, the pure methanol fuel (with the lowest dynamic viscosity coefficient (5.008∙〖10〗^(-4) N∙s∙m^(-2)) has the highest flow velocity at the coil outlet (10.2 m∙s-1). By contrast, the pure ethanol fuel (with the highest dynamic viscosity coefficient (1.074∙〖10〗^(-3) N∙s∙m^(-2)) has the lowest exit velocity (8.17 m∙s-1). For each fuel, the flow velocity within the coil remains approximately constant and a clogging effect is observed at the coil outlet. The severity of the clogging effect increases with a decreasing outlet velocity. Thus, the particle penetration probability has a maximum value of 71.88% for the pure methanol fuel and a minimum value of 70.958% for the pure ethanol fuel. The validity of the simulation results is confirmed by comparing the clogging results for the methanol-water fuel with a molar ratio of 62%:38% with the experimental observations. It is shown that a good qualitative agreement exists between the two sets of results for both the thickness of the deposited layer and the positions of the main clog formations. |

| 摘要： | MATLAB/Simulink simulations are performed to investigate the hydrogen molar fraction of the reformate gas produced by four methanol-water fuel mixtures with molar ratios of 50%:50%, 62%:38%, 75%:25%, and 100%:0%, respectively. The simulations utilize the Thermolib module and investigate the hydrogen reforming performance of the four fuels for fuel flow rates in the range of 0.1 ~ 1 mol∙min^(-1) and reaction temperatures ranging from 500 ~ 1000 K. The results show that the hydrogen molar fraction of the reformate gas decreases with an increasing methanol content. By contrast, for a given methanol concentration, the hydrogen molar fraction generally increases with an increasing flow rate and reaction temperature. Overall, the results show that the maximum hydrogen molar fraction (73.10%) is obtained using the 50%MeOH:50% water fuel mixture with a flow rate of 0.5 mol∙min^(-1) and a reaction temperature of 800 K. |

| 摘要： | The present study considers a tubular reformer packed with CuO/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst and heater tubes. Five different fuels are considered, namely four methanol-water fuels with molar ratios of 40%:60%, 50%:50%, 62%:38%, 75%:25%, and pure methanol fuel. For the methanol-water fuels with methanol molar fractions of 40%, 50% and 62%, respectively, the temperature reaches a minimum value after approximately 0.22 m. Furthermore, the methanol mass fraction conversion rate exceeds 98%. The hydrogen mass fraction increases with an increasing methanol molar fraction and has a value of approximately 13.43% given an input fuel with a methanol molar ratio of 62%:38%. For the fuels with methanol molar fractions of 75% and 100%, respectively, the methanol mass conversation rate reduces to around 66.57% and 22.72%, respectively. As a result, the hydrogen mass fraction has values of just 6.85% and 1.42%, respectively. In other words, for the inlet temperature, velocity and pressure conditions considered, the reaction efficiency is degraded for methanol-water fuels with a higher methanol content, and hence the hydrogen production efficiency is reducing. |

| 摘要： | This study used molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to investigate the passage of water molecules through a composite graphene/Au nano-nozzle. Our focus was on the degree to which system temperature, extrusion speed, and nozzle diameter affect jet dynamics and the associated transient phenomena. Our findings show that high pressure and spatial confinement cause the nanojet from a small nozzle diameter (1.0 nm) to bend and twist, whereas the jets from a nozzle with a diameter of 1.5 nm present columns of greater stability. At 100 K, the H2O nanojet froze at the outlet of the nozzle in the form of condensed icicles. At 500 K, the H2O nanojet formed a loose spray and gaseous clusters. High extrusion speed of 55.824 m/s produced recirculating flow downstream from the nanojet with the appearance of an erupting volcano, which further prompted the jet column to thicken. Lower extrusion speeds produced jets with flow velocity insufficient to overcome the capillary force at the outlet of the nozzle, which subsequently manifests as unstable fluctuations in the flow rate. |

| 摘要： | High-performance exhaust manifolds are expected to operate in high-temperature and corrosive environments. Any cavitation or surface corrosion induced by casting defects can cause air leakage, reduce exhaust efficiency, and shorten the lifespan of the device. In this study, we sought to eliminate casting defects by optimizing the gating system used in the production of an SUS316 stainless steel exhaust manifold, based on the probability and distribution of porosity defects, as determined using the retained melt modulus (RMM) model. Mold flow analysis and experiments were conducted to configure gating systems to operate under a variety of processing parameters. Our predictions pertaining to defect formation were in good agreement with experiment results. Simulations revealed that side gating systems improved flow stability and reduced the encapsulation of gas in the cavity of the top gating section. The resulting scheme increased the casting yield from 24% (using the original casting scheme) to 28%. Experimental verification using non-destructive testing methods revealed that the proposed scheme succeeded in eliminating all of the porosity defects from the cast exhaust manifold. |

| 摘要： | In investment casting, the separation of cast components composed of strong, hard materials from the gating system is a delicate operation, which can incur considerable costs in terms of labor and tools. In this study, we substituted conventional grinder cutting with vibration-induced fatigue failure to facilitate the separation of chromium-molybdenum
(CrMo) alloy steel components from an investment casting tree. This process involves the creation of V-shape notches on the ingate structure as well as modifications to component layout within the pattern tree. Vibration-excited dynamic experiments were performed to examine the effects of notch designs on stress concentration and cutting off at the ingates. Mold flow analysis was used to optimize the design of the pouring system to ensure casts of high quality. Finite element method (FEM) and experimental modal analysis (EMA) were conducted to predict the efficacy of the model and vibration characteristics. The application of harmonic response analysis to a casting tree model determined the maximum and minimum principal stresses at ingate notches. Once the stress values at the ingate notches were sufficient to ensure failure conditions, the same parameters were used to perform a final experiment for verification. Experiment results revealed that the breaks indeed occurred at the notches of the ingate. The proposed approach could be used as an alternative to conventional cutting using a grinding wheel as a means of reducing labor costs, increasing safety, and enhancing production efficiency. |

| 摘要： | Fuel cell hybrid scooters provide an adequate performance on horizontal road surfaces, but perform less well when climbing slopes. In the present study, the slope-climbing capability of a fuel cell hybrid scooter is examined in simulations. The simulations focus specifically on the effects of the slope inclination angle, riding speed and rider weight on the power consumption, hydrogen consumption, and maximum travel range of the scooter. The validity of the numerical model is confirmed by comparing the numerical results for the power consumption of the scooter with the experimental and analytical results presented in the literature. The simulation results show that the power consumption and hydrogen consumption increase with an increasing slope inclination angle, riding speed and rider weight. Moreover, it is shown that given an initial hydrogen mass of 90 g, a constant riding speed of 40 km h-1, and a rider weight of 60 kg, the maximum travel range reduces from 47 km to 5 km as the slope inclination angle is increased from 0° to 40°. In general, the results presented in this study confirm that the proposed simulation model provides a valid means of characterizing the performance of a fuel cell hybrid scooter under typical urban riding conditions. |

| 摘要： | The impellers of centrifugal pumps are highly susceptible to the latent damage of corrosion and cavitation after
long periods of transporting chemical fluids. To enhance the structural integrity and effective lifespan of impellers, this
study applied mold flow analysis to the design of gating systems for 17-4PH stainless steel enclosed impellers. Our objective was to eliminate shrinkage and porous defects common in investment casting.We adopted various bottom, side, and top pouring systems with different pouring parameters to examine the behavior of the molten metal flow and solidification in the mold cavity. We designed a pressurized gating system with specific gating ratio to achieve a stable flow velocity at ingates. Physical sensors preset in the interior of the cavity were also used to detect thermodynamic behavior and analyze phase changes during casting simulations. The probability of shrinkage defect formation was assessed using the retained melt modulus (RMM) and the Niyama criterion. Experiments and nondestructive inspections show that optimizing the design of the gating system prevented surface shrinkage and interior defects. The improvements also reduced post-processing time and costs, increased yields, and enhanced casting quality. |

| 摘要： | Numerical simulations are performed to investigate the evaporation behavior of various fuels in the evaporator coil of the steam reformer used for hydrogen gas production purposes in a stationary proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell system. The simulations consider five different fuels, namely three methanol-water mixtures (50%:50%, 62%:38% and 75%:25%), pure methanol, and pure ethanol, respectively. For all operating temperatures, the pure ethanol fuel exhibits the lowest flow rate due to its relatively higher dynamic viscosity. For the methanol-water fuel mixtures, the evaporation temperature increases from 473 K to 547 K as the methanol content increases from 50% to 75%. Moreover, the pure methanol and ethanol fuels have evaporation temperatures of 609 K and 713 K, respectively. Of the five fuels, the pure ethanol fuel achieves full vaporization (i.e., no water content) within the shortest flow distance (543 mm). Moreover, the outlet temperature of the vaporized ethanol (713 K) is the highest of the considered fuels. Overall, the simulation results indicate that pure ethanol yields the highest hydrogen production efficiency, and is therefore the most suitable fuel for the steam-reforming production of hydrogen gas in PEM fuel cell applications. |

| 摘要： | The adsorption behaviour of gas molecules on detector surfaces has a profound influence on the sensitivity
of the detector. For this reason, this study used molecular dynamics simulation to explore the dynamic
adsorption behaviour of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) molecules on various types of Au surfaces, including
a planar Au(1 1 0) structure and three types of slit array structures. The influence of system temperature,
adsorbate concentration and the slit width of nanoarrays on diffusivity, average adsorption energy and
static adsorption amount were systematically examined. Simulation results indicate that the self-diffusivity
of the adsorbate molecules increases with temperature but decreases with adsorbate concentration. At
low concentrations (~3 mol/L), each type of Au(1 1 0) surface structure shows good capacity to adsorb
all H2S molecules. With increasing concentration at 6.5 mol/L, the high concentration leads to adsorption
saturation and many free H2S molecules in the planar Au(1 1 0) structure. Moreover, desorption also
begins to appear on the planar structures at a temperature of 300 K (at 6.5 mol/L). The simulation results
indicate that the columnar array structures with a slit width ≥5.76 Å allow molecules to swiftly spread
into the slits and provide more stable adsorption sites (i.e. with a higher adsorption energy), which can
effectively address the issues of high-temperature desorption and adsorption saturation. Particularly at
low temperatures (≤100 K), slit structures presented a level of static adsorption of H2S that was 30% to 35
higher than that of planar structures. |

| 摘要： | This study simulated hydrogen production scenarios for fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) hydrogen refueling stations by examining an electrolysis hydrogen production system powered by small wind turbines and a PV system. The simulation model was developed using MATLAB/Simulink to observe the effect of temperature on hydrogen flow and Faraday efficiency in the electrolyzer.
In the simulation, the decentralized hybrid renewable energy system generated power used to produce hydrogen in the electrolyzer at an internal temperature of 40 °C, 60 °C, and 80 °C. The results of the simulation showed that electrolysis hydrogen production efficiency improved under two conditions: (a) when the 12 kW-rated power turbines operated simultaneously with the 18 kW PV system for a total power output of 30 kW; and (b) when the electrolyzer was heated to an operating temperature of 60 °C using the solar thermal collection system. If improvement in per second hydrogen flow can approach 0.1% compared to 40 °C, the system could produce 25 kg of hydrogen in the shortest time, at 49.2 hours and I-100 current density. |

| 摘要： | This study involves investigation of fuel cell hybrid vehicles. The main power source in the dynamic configuration is a
proton exchange membrane fuel cell. An energy performance comparison is conducted between the use of a lithium-ion
battery (Automotive Energy Supply Corporation, Japan) and the UltraBattery (Furukawa Battery Company, Japan) as auxiliary power sources. The MATLAB/Simulink for simulation is used to observe dynamic behavior and overall performance.
This study describes the simulation frameworks of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell, ultracapacitor, lead–acid
battery, and UltraBattery. Then, the Economic Commission for Europe 40 driving cycle is used to test and investigate
the performance of the fuel cell hybrid vehicle. Four energy output models are adopted to simulate the energy demand
and the energy motor output of the dual power source, namely the high-load demand, general demand, low-load demand, and charge models. The simulation results indicate that the lithium battery recycles 0.1% more work compared with the UltraBattery. Regarding fuel economy, the UltraBattery is only 0.1% inferior to the lithium battery. The expected cost of an UltraBattery with the same specifications is 35% less than that of a lithium battery. Considering fuel economy and cost simultaneously, the UltraBattery can compete with the lithium battery. |

| 摘要： | Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have many advantages, including a low power consumption, a long lifetime and a small size. However, at temperatures greater than 120 °C, a significant deterioration of the lamp body and packaging materials occurs. As a result, effective thermal management schemes are essential in maintaining the performance and reliability of high-power LED modules. One of the most common forms of LED cooling system is a heat sink consisting of an array of vertical fins designed in such a way as to optimize the heat dissipation efficiency through conduction, convection and radiation effects. In practice, the efficiency of such systems is largely dependent on the thermal conductivity of the fin material. Accordingly, the present study performs a numerical investigation into the cooling efficiency of a heat sink consisting of aluminum-graphite pin fins under ambient temperature conditions of 35 °C, 70 °C and 80 °C and natural convection air flow velocities of 0.5 ms−1, 2ms−1 and 4ms−1. The simulations assume the pin fins to be fabricated of aluminum-graphite composite material with graphite contents ranging from 0 to 90 vol.%. In general, the results confirm the effectiveness of graphite addition in improving the heat transfer performance of passive aluminum pin fin heat sinks. It is found that for all values of the ambient temperature and convection air flow velocity, the heat transfer performance improves as the graphite addition is increased from 0 to 60 vol.%. However, at higher values of the graphite concentration, only a minor further improvement in the heat transfer rate is obtained. Thus, it is inferred that a graphite content of 60 vol.% represents the optimal design for the present aluminum-graphite pin fins. |

| 摘要： | A MATLAB/Simulink model is constructed of a fuel cell thermoelectric cogeneration system fed by a methanol steam reformer. The major components within the simulation model include the fuel cell stack, the hydrogen and oxygen supply systems, the heat recovery system, and the methanol steam reformer. It is shown that the simulation results for the dynamic response of the fuel cell given a step change in the load are in good qualitative agreement with the experimental results. Moreover, the simulation results show that the proposed thermoelectric cogeneration system has a thermal efficiency of 35%, an electrical efficiency of 45.6%, and a combined heat and power efficiency of 80.6%. The numerical results for the system efficiency deviate by no more than 4.4% from the experimental results. Finally, it is shown both numerically and experimentally that the methanol conversion rate is greater than 99%. |

| 摘要： | Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have attracted significant interest as a potential green energy source. However, if the performance of such systems is to be enhanced, appropriate control strategies must be applied. Accordingly, the present study proposes a sophisticated control system for a 1.0?kW PEMFC system comprising a fuel cell stack, an auxiliary power supply, a DC-DC buck converter, and a DC-AC inverter. The control system is implemented using an 8051 single-chip microcontroller and is designed to optimize the system performance and safety in both the startup phase and the long-term operation phase. The major features of the proposed control system are described and the circuit diagrams required for its implementation introduced. In addition, the touch-sensitive, intuitive human-machine interface is introduced and typical screens are presented. Finally, the electrical characteristics of the PEMFC system are briefly examined. Overall, the results confirm that the single-chip microcontroller presented in this study has significant potential for commercialization in the near future. |

| 摘要： | The coupled effects of vacancy clusters (VCs), temperature, wire size, and geometry on the mechanical and fracture behaviors of defective silicon nanowires (Si NWs) were investigated using molecular dynamics modeling with Tersoff potential.

| 摘要： | A numerical model is developed of a stationary proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system comprising a PEMFC, a DC-DC buck converter, an auxiliary power supply (a lithium battery and supercapacitor), and a DC-AC inverter. The transient and steady-state performance of the PEMFC system is investigated by means of Matlab/Simulink simulations. It is shown that a good agreement exists between the simulated polarization curve of the PEMFC and the experimental results presented in the literature. In addition, it is shown that the DC-DC buck converter provides an effective means of stabilizing the output voltage of the PEMFC. Finally, the results confirm the effectiveness of the auxiliary power source in enabling the PEMFC to satisfy the peak load demand. |

| 摘要： | The performance of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is affected by many factors, including the relative humidity and pressure of the inlet gases, the temperature of the fuel cell stack, the transport of the reactants and byproducts, the dissipation of the reaction heat, and so on. Thus, to optimize the PEMFC performance over a range of operating conditions, the various components within the PEMFC system must be appropriately controlled. Accordingly, the present study proposes a sophisticated control system for a 1.0 kW PEMFC system comprising a fuel cell stack, an auxiliary power supply, a DC-DC buck converter and a DC-AC inverter. The control system is implemented using a programmable logic controller (PLC) and is designed to optimize the system performance and safety in both the start-up phase and the long-term operation phase. Uniquely, the control system is interfaced with a user-friendly human-machine interface, which not only permits the PEMFC system to be operated by individuals with no experience in the field, but also provides access to the controller via the Internet such that the system can be maintained and tuned by a qualified technician in a remote location. Overall, the PEMFC system and associated control scheme proposed in this study have considerable potential for commercialization as a reliable, low-cost solution for meeting the power supply requirements of small-scale residential and office users. |

| 摘要： | In this study, 2 fuel-cell hybrid systems for the energy performance comparison of fuel-cell hybrid vehicles (FCHVs) are presented. A Matlab/Simulink model was constructed, and the main power source was a fuel cell. A lithium battery and a flywheel battery were the auxiliary power sources. A vehicle driving test, FTP-75(Federal Test Procedure), was applied for 4 different control modes: mixed common output mode, normal driving charge mode, fuel-cell mode, and braking mode. FTP-75 simulated the energy requirements and energy output state of the full-motor hybrid system.
The results show that the recovered energy of the flywheel battery was higher than that of the lithium battery, and the output power was close to the motor output curve. The flywheel battery can withstand rapid charging and discharging, which substantially reduces time and instantaneous motor current output. It can also effectively reduce the load on the motor. Finally, the flywheel battery enhanced the driving range of the hybrid vehicle to a greater degree than the lithium battery did under the same conditions. Energy consumption by 22.7% and the overall saving of 17.8 grams of hydrogen. |

| 摘要： | The transient response of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with a serpentine flow field design is investigated using a three-dimensional numerical model. The simulations consider three different flow field designs with 7, 11, and 15 bends, respectively. For the flow field design with 11 bends, three different channel width ratios are considered, namely 25%, 50%, and 75%. The channel width ratio is defined as the ratio of the channel width to the total channel/rib width. The simulation results show that for all of the flow field designs, an overshoot in the local current density occurs when the voltage is reduced instantaneously from 0.7 to 0.5V because of the high and uniform oxygen mass fraction. Conversely, a significant
undershoot occurs when the voltage is increased instantaneously from 0.5 to 0.7V because of the low and nonuniform oxygen mass fraction. The overshoot and undershoot phenomena are particularly evident in the PEMFC with a 15-bend flow field. For the flow field design with 11 bends, the channel width ratio has little effect on the current density at an operating voltage of 0.7V. However, at an operating voltage of 0.5 V, the oxygen concentration into the catalyst and diffusion layers increases with the increasing channel width ratio, which leads to higher current density. As a result, a more significant overshoot phenomenon is observed in the flow field with a width ratio of 75%. |

| 摘要： | The main purpose of our study was to use an experimental method and system dynamic simulation technology to examine a proton exchange membrane fuel cell thermoelectric cogeneration system that provides both high-quality electric power and heated water. In the second part of our study, we experimentally verified the development of key components of the fuel cell and conducted a comprehensive analysis of the subsystems, including the fuel cell module, hydrogen supply subsystem, air supply subsystem, humidifier subsystem, and heat recovery subsystem. Finally, we integrated all of the subsystems into a PEM fuel cell thermoelectric cogeneration system and performed efficiency tests and analysis of power generation, heat recovery, and thermoelectric cogeneration. After comparing this system’s efficiency results using simulation and experimentation, we determined that the accuracy of the simulation values when compared to the experimental values was greater than 95%, showing that this system’s simulation nearly approached the efficiency of the actual experiment, including more than 53% for power generation efficiency, more than 39% for heat recovery efficiency, and more than 93% for thermoelectric cogeneration combined efficiency. |

| 摘要： | This paper presents a model of a hybrid electric vehicle, based on a primary proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and an auxiliary Li-ion battery, and its dynamics and overall performance. The power voltage from the fuel cell is regulated by a DC/DC converter before integrating with the Li-ion battery, which provides energy to the drive motor. The driving force for propelling the wheels comes from a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM); where the power passes through the transmission, shaft, and the differential.
The mathematical model, comprising the PEMFC, Li-ion battery, PMSM, and vehicular structure, was modeled in MATLAB/Simulink. A power management model was incorporated in the system such that the power output varies in different conditions; including high-power, low-power, standard-power, and charge modes. By changing the speed of the accelerator, the relation between the output of dual power supply, hydrogen consumption, and Li-ion battery’s state of charge was observed.
The power management model is validated against the ECE40 driving cycle. The performance of the fuel cell hybrid vehicle is evaluated. The operation modes in the vehicle show a close match with the proposed power management system. Additionally, the hybrid ratio is measured to evaluate the overall efficiency. The results indicate that the hybrid ratio shows little correlation with efficiency. However, the higher the power of the fuel cell, the higher the hydrogen consumption. |

| 摘要： | This project designs and simulates a cogeneration system of Proton exchange membrane fuel cell using Matlab/Simulink software and Thermolib heat module components. The system not only satisfies the need for electric power, but also provides heat recovery for future uses, thus increasing energy transfer efficiency.
PEM fuel cell-based cogeneration system is introduced, including the hydrogen supply subsystem, air supply subsystem, load control subsystem, real-time monitoring block, and heat recovery subsystem. The complete fuel cell-based cogeneration system is constructed by assembling the fuel cell stack, fuel, coolant flow rate control system, and all the subsystems.
In addition to the fuel cell experiment, influencing factors on the fuel cell-based system, such as the fuel inhale rate, coolant flow rate, system temperature, fuel humidification, thermal efficiency, electrical efficiency, and combined heat and power system efficiency, are analyzed and charted regarding different loads. In this system, with the power at 3 kW, the combined heat and power efficiency reaches 64 %. The combined heat and power efficiency is 76.6 % with the load power at 4 kW. When the power is at 5 kW, the thermal efficiency reaches 36.9 % and the combined heat and power efficiency reaches 82.9 %. |

| 摘要： | Experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of aplanarmembranehumidifier for a PEM fuel cellstack. The humidification performance of the humidifier adopted here includes the dew point approach temperature (DPAT), water recovery ratio (WRR), and water vapor transfer rate (WVTR). Parametric studies involve the dry inlet temperature, the wet inlet dew point, and the flow rate across the humidifier. Results show that increasing the flow rate across the humidifier linearly increases its pressure drop. However, the DPAT increases sharply at high flow rates (>350 SLPM) due to the inadequate WVTR limited by the humidifier size. In addition, increasing the wet inlet dew point reduces the humidification performance by increasing the DPAT and reducing in the WRR. Moreover, an increase in the dry inlet temperature could reduce the DPAT at the low flow rate of 100 SLPM, but does not affect the DPAT at the high flow rate of 450 SLPM. Furthermore, the electrochemical performance of the stack–humidifier assembly is only 10% less than that of the stack tested on a commercial test station. Stability test reveals a satisfactory reliability of the present membranehumidifier as well. |

| 摘要： | Three-dimensional simulations based on a multi-physics model are performed to examine the thermofluidic and electrochemical characteristics of a tubular, anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The simulations focus on the local transport characteristics of the cathode and anode gases and the distribution of the temperature field within the fuel cell. In addition, the electrochemical properties of the SOFC are systematically examined for a representative range of inlet gas temperatures and pressures. The validity of the numerical model is confirmed by comparing the results obtained for the correlation between the power density and the current density with the experimental results presented in the literature. Overall, the present results show that the performance of the tubular SOFC is significantly improved under pressurized conditions and a higher operating temperature. |
