A Study of Heating Mechanism Applied to Hydrogen Storage Alloy Tank of Portable Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell

Abstract:

This study developed a heating mechanism applicable to hydrogen storage tank, in order to enhance the stability and durability of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). This study discussed two heating modes. The first mode was using heating wire to wind the hydrogen storage tank body. Heating wires were used to wind the upper, middle and lower parts of the hydrogen storage tank and the whole tank respectively for discussion. The second heating mode was to use the PEMFC cathode waste heat to heat the hydrogen storage tank body. This study discussed the variations of hydrogen release rate and tank body temperature with the hydrogen release time in different heating mechanisms. The research results can serve as reference for system design in various applications.
