Tianda looks forward to the design of a new generation of fuel cell engine

Recently, the research team of the Electrochemical Thermophysics Laboratory led by Professor Jiao Kui of Tianjin University published a 9-page prospective article in Nature to provide a new generation of ultra-high power density fuel cell engine theory and design.
Up the direction
.

The Jiao Kui team looked forward to the goal of a new generation of ultra-high power density fuel cell, and clearly pointed out the development route of each component and its contribution to the performance improvement
.

As an important part of the social layout of hydrogen energy, the most important issue in the development of fuel cell devices is the improvement of their performance
.

According to the above plan, in the next 10 years, the power density of the fuel cell stack will be increased to 6-9 kilowatts/liter
.

Judging from the development history of the past 20 years, the design of a new generation of fuel cells will rely heavily on the development of related energy materials and the optimization of their internal processes.
However, the multi-scale complex structure and physical and chemical processes in the fuel cell have brought huge challenges to this
.

The team of researchers said that the contribution of bipolar plates and membrane electrodes to the future power density increase is about 30% and 70%, respectively, and each component needs to be optimized together to achieve the goal
.

　　Imagine a new type of electric car that can be filled with hydrogen fuel in 5 minutes, without waiting for several hours for charging, and has a cruising range of more than 800 kilometers, but only pure water is emitted
.

　　The fuel cell engine that uses hydrogen energy has become the most attractive and most likely clean energy power plant in the transportation field to achieve industrialization and commercialization
