摘要

耐久性不足严重制约了锌空燃料电池的商业化发展,对电池的老化特性及机理进行实验研究和分析十分必要。该文基于电池应用时面临的单次稳定运行、长周期连续稳定运行、停机储存和周期性启停循环等主要工况提出了锌空燃料电池的耐久性测试评价方法,开展了老化实验。研究了不同工况下电池的老化特性,并结合实验结果分析了老化机理。最后,从电解液管理、延长空气电极寿命和电池管理3个方面提出了延缓电池老化的方法。实验结果表明:该文提出的耐久性测试评价方法可用于锌空燃料电池的老化特性及耐久性提升方法的研究。

Abstract

The commercial development of zinc-air fuel cells is limited by their lack of durability. A zinc-air fuel cell durability test evaluation method was developed based on the working conditions for short term stable operation, long term continuous stable operation, shutdown storage and periodic start-stop cycles. The aging characteristics of zinc-air fuel cells were then experimentally investigated for various operating conditions to study the aging mechanism. Finally, several methods were developed to slow the aging through electrolyte management, methods to extend the air cathode lifetime, and zinc-air fuel cell management. The durability test evaluation method presented in this paper can be used to study the aging characteristics and durability of zinc-air fuel cells.
