描述

The电解器block represents the electric load associated with an electrolyzer. An electrolyzer consists of an anode and a cathode separated by an electrolyte. The block calculates the amount of produced hydrogen based on the electrical energy provided and the water temperature in the tank.

In polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, these chemical reactions define the anode and cathode conversions:

2 H 2 O O 2 + 4 H + + 4 e

4 H + + 4 e 2 H 2

电解堆栈包括几个串联的单个电解室细胞。指定Assumption pH参数以pH依赖性状态或具有恒定pH值的理想状态进行建模。

Equations

电解盘块通过使用

P E = v 2 R T ,

wherev是电压和RT是总电阻。总电阻,RT, is defined by

1 R T = 1 R e l + 1 R ,

where:

  • R是外部电阻。

  • R e l = ρ ( p H ) x A . This value is a resistive term obtained from the cross-sectional transport area,A,距离阳极 - 阴极,x,以及溶液的电阻率,ρ(pH).

The molar energy stored across the electrical load enables the process of water electrolysis and is calculated by this equation:

G E = P E 1 m o l / s .

To accomplish electrolysis, the electrolyzer requires a minimum amount of energy

G min = δ H T T 0 T δ S ,

where:

  • ΔHis the water enthalpy.

  • Tδsis the reaction entropy.

  • T是水温。

  • T0is the reference temperature.

如果电能不足以解离水,则电解液不会产生氢。因此,电解液块计算电子的摩尔速率,mole, and the mole rate of hydrogen,molH2

m o l e = { μ ( G E G min ) e V N A G E > G min 0 G E G min

m o l H 2 = { N c m o l e 2 , G E > G min 0 , G E G min

where:

  • NAis the Avogadro constant.

  • eVis the energy per electron.

  • Nc是细胞的数量。

  • μ是电解的温度依赖性效率。

然后将流过电莱奶罐的电流作为

i = m o l e F ,

whereF是法拉第常数。

The Electrolyzer block calculates the mass rates of consumed water and generated hydrogen by using these equations:

m ˙ H 2 O = m o l H 2 M H 2 O m ˙ H 2 = m o l H 2 M H 2

whereMH2O是摩尔的水和MH2is the molar mass of hydrogen.

To compute the pH of the water in the tank, the block uses

p H = Ln ( x h p m o l H 2 _ a c c ) ,

where:

  • x h p = { m o l e , p H a s s u m e d c o n s t a n t ( 1 p u r g e ) m o l e , p H a s s u m e d d y n a m i c captures the floating hydrons (H+) in the solution.

  • m o l H 2 _ a c c = V ρ H 2 O ( T ) M H 2 O is the number of moles of water.

  • Vis the volume.

  • ρH2O(T)是水箱中水的密度。

电解液中溶液中的残留质子自然会随着时间的推移增加水箱中水的pH值和电导率。电导率的增加导致失控现象。为了防止逃跑,您必须通过取出水箱的体积并填充清洁的水来清除水箱中的水。
