  • Patent number: 11050070
    Abstract: Provided are a method and an apparatus controlling a water flooding failure in a fuel cell dual-stack system. The method includes: acquiring a hydrogen pressure drop reference value of the stack system in each normal working condition to obtain a control value; collecting a current pressure drop at a hydrogen side, and determining whether the current pressure drop at the hydrogen side is higher than the control value corresponding to a current normal working condition; determining a faulted stack according to voltages or currents of the first stack and the second stack if the current pressure drop at the hydrogen side is higher than the control value corresponding to the current normal working condition; reducing an opening degree of a flow regulating valve of the faulted stack, and increasing an opening degree of a flow regulating valve of the other stack.

  • Publication number: 20200403254
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and device for forecasting the service life and remaining life of a fuel cell. The method comprises: determining an end of life on the basis of the attenuation percentage of the current or power of a fuel cell at a constant voltage, completing the activation of the fuel cell, measuring a first polarization curve of the fuel cell; when the fuel cell runs for a preset time, measuring the second polarization curve of the fuel cell; acquiring the voltage attenuation rate or a current attenuation time constant of the fuel cell, and acquiring the service life and remaining life of the fuel cell via a forecasting formula.
