摘要:

质子交换膜燃料电池(proton exchange membrane fuel cell, PEMFC)作为一种新型汽车动力源,展现出广泛的应用潜力。然而,氢气渗透问题在长期运行中日益显现,已成为制约其大规模商业化应用的重要技术挑战。氢气渗透不仅降低了PEMFC的输出电压,还可能对电池的耐久性和安全性产生负面影响。为应对这一问题,本文基于现有研究成果,对PEMFC氢气渗透的研究进展进行了系统概述。首先,本文阐述了氢气渗透的基本原理及其潜在危害;接着,分析了膜衰减前后氢气渗透的传递机制,并回顾了最新的渗透模型研究进展;最后,结合氢气渗透的原理,总结了目前有效的抑制措施,并展望了未来的研究发展趋势。本文旨在为提升PEMFC性能、延长其使用寿命以及增强系统安全性提供理论支持。

Abstract:

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) demonstrate significant potential as a new automotive power source. However, the problem of hydrogen permeation has become increasingly apparent during long-term operation, posing an important technical challenge that restricts the large-scale commercial application. Hydrogen permeation not only decreases the output voltage of PEMFCs but may also negatively impact the durability and safety of the fuel cells. To address this issue, in this paper the research progress on hydrogen permeation in PEMFCs based on existing studies is systematically summarized. Firstly, in the paper the basic principles of hydrogen permeation and its potential hazards are elaborated. Then, the transfer mechanism of hydrogen permeation before and after membrane degradation is analyzed and the latest development in permeation models is reviews. Finally, in the paper currently effective suppression measures considering the principles of hydrogen permeation are summarized and future research trends are discussed. This paper aims to provide theoretical support for enhancing the performance of PEMFCs, extending their service life, and improving system safety.
