Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for storing a gaseous fuel according to the closer defined in the preamble of claim 1.
- Compressed gas tanks for storing gaseous fuel for example natural gas or hydrogen, are known from the general state of the art.
- gaseous fuels can be used in particular in vehicles for driving an internal combustion engine or for driving fuel cells.
- Compressed gas tanks typically have comparatively high operating pressures in the
- Pressurized gas tank is used for hydrogen, always refueling the pressurized gas tank.
- the compressed gas tanks often consist of a composite of carbon fibers and a plastic matrix. Such a composite material is often relatively sensitive to temperature. To be able to store the gaseous fuel now with sufficient pressure, a compression of the fuel is necessary. This inevitably heats up the fuel. In order to prevent too high a temperature in the region of the compressed gas tank, it is customary to carry out a corresponding cooling of the fuel in the region of the refueling system, for example before compression or after compression, and thus at temperatures from
- Cooling device fails. Then it can happen very quickly that the gaseous fuel with a comparatively high temperature of typically up to 150 ° C. flows into the compressed gas tank. However, such high gas temperatures can damage the compressed gas tank, which may be due to damage to the
- a sufficiently low temperature during refueling of the gas typically about 85 ° C, by the tank system, which also the pressure of the
- a special problem occurs when the cooling or the temperature monitoring is defective in the tank system. Then it can come to a flow of gas into the pressure tank at much higher temperatures than desired. This is often not visible to the operator of the compressed gas tank or the vehicle equipped with it. If there is now a leakage due to the elevated temperature, as has been described above, then this may occur relatively late or offset in time to the actual refueling. The leakage is a high safety risk. In addition, it is then difficult for the user of the vehicle, where the problem with the compressed gas tank comes from. Recourse to the operator of the tank system is thus often not possible, but the replacement of the compressed gas tank in any case required.
- the object of the present invention is now to provide a device for storing a gaseous fuel, which avoids the above-mentioned problems and allows independent of the function or a possible malfunction of a tank system safe and reliable refueling.
- Fuel cell system with such a device are in the dependent
- the inventive device for storing a gaseous fuel in a vehicle has a compressed gas tank and an integrated temperature-sensitive component and also has a valve device which is used to limit the
- Gas flow is suitable in the compressed gas tank.
- the valve device acts
- the device according to the invention thus has a safety device which, when a predetermined limit temperature is exceeded, for example when the gas temperature in the compressed gas tank exceeds 85 ° C., correspondingly reduces the influx of the gas during refueling.
- a predetermined limit temperature for example when the gas temperature in the compressed gas tank exceeds 85 ° C.
- the structure is arranged in the region of the compressed gas tank itself or integrated into it, so that it is independent of the manner and the reliable functionality of an external tank system for refueling the compressed gas tank with the gaseous fuel.
- valve device is designed tank integrated.
- tank integrated running executed valve device is particularly favorable because they are independent of any mechanical influences in the
- the temperature-sensitive component as
- Bimetal element is formed, which from the limit temperature, a valve body of the valve device at least indirectly in the flow-through cross-section of
- Valve device moves. Such a structure is particularly simple and efficient, since it can be arranged purely mechanically, preferably in the interior of the compressed gas tank.
- a bimetallic element which according to a particularly advantageous embodiment may be designed as a bimetallic spring, interacts either directly or indirectly with a valve body of the valve device.
- the bimetal spring directly be connected to the valve body and hold this typically in an open position. If the bimetallic fields are now heated in the pressurized gas tank due to the surrounding too hot gas, it can move the valve body and thereby limit the flow-through cross section of the valve device first and also close it upon further heating. The influx of too hot gas at the
- a second alternative embodiment variant of the device according to the invention provides that the temperature-sensitive component is designed as a temperature sensor which supplies a temperature signal to a control unit, wherein the control of the valve device is effected by signals of the control unit.
- Pressurized gas tanks use a temperature sensor, for example a thermocouple, which supplies a corresponding electrical variable, which can be processed via an amplifier or a control unit and used to control the valve device.
- a temperature sensor for example a thermocouple
- the valve device is formed as normally open valve device, which is then partially or completely closed, for example, as a solenoid valve in the presence of a corresponding voltage in the region of the temperature sensor. This also reduces or prevents the influx of too hot gas into the compressed gas tank, so that thermal damage can be avoided.
- the invention further describes a fuel cell system in a vehicle having at least one fuel cell having an air-supplied cathode region and an anode region supplied with hydrogen.
- the hydrogen is stored in a device according to the invention in one of the abovementioned embodiments.
- this is typically stored at very high pressures, for example, 70 MPa. At such pressures, the leakage plays in
- Compressed gas tanks a crucial role, as this endangers the safety of the vehicle and the occupants. If, in such a fuel cell system, a leak occurs, through which hydrogen reaches the environment, flammable or even explosive mixtures may form which in any case must be prevented.
- the inventive design of the device for storing the hydrogen as a gaseous fuel is therefore for use in a fuel cell system of particular advantage.
- FIG. 1 shows an exemplary fuel cell system with a compressed gas tank in one
- Fig. 2 shows a first possible embodiment of a compressed gas tank according to the invention.
- Fig. 3 shows a second possible embodiment of a compressed gas tank according to the
- a fuel cell system 1 can be seen in a greatly simplified schematized representation. This is to be used in an indicated vehicle 2 for the provision of electrical energy, in particular for the provision of drive power.
- the fuel cell system 1 has as a core a fuel cell 3, which should be designed here as a stack of PEM fuel cells.
- the fuel cell stack 3 comprises an anode region 4 and a cathode region 5.
- the cathode region 5 is supplied with air as an oxygen supplier via an air conveying device 6.
- the anode region 4 is supplied with hydrogen from a compressed gas reservoir 7 via a metering device 8.
- Other components of the fuel cell system 1 as they are known for example from the prior art, of course, may be present, but are not of interest for the explanation of the present invention, therefore, in Figure 1, the described simplified view of the fuel cell system. 1 selected.
- the compressed gas tank 7 must be refueled from time to time with fresh gas, in this case fresh hydrogen.
- a tank connection 9 is provided on the vehicle 2 in the illustration of Figure 1, which can be connected in a conventional manner with a tank system 10.
- the tank system 10 then provides the compressed under high pressure hydrogen to fill the
- Compressed gas tanks 7 ready.
- the hydrogen is cooled in the tank system 10 before and / or after compression so far that the refueling of the compressed gas tank 7 is carried out with hydrogen at temperatures of not more than 85 ° C. If there is a failure, for example, a cooling device or the corresponding sensors in the tank system 10, then it can also come to the entry of hydrogen gas in the compressed gas tank 7 with higher temperatures. This can damage the material of the compressed gas tank 7.
- pressurized gas tanks which are typically operated at operating pressures of 70 MPa, are formed from a fiber reinforced plastic matrix material. If too high temperatures occur in the area of the plastic matrix, some of the plastic matrix can be attacked and decompose. The consequence would be a leakage of the compressed gas tank 7 with corresponding leakage. However, a leakage of hydrogen from the compressed gas tank 7 leads to considerable safety problems, since this can cause flammable or even explosive mixtures.
- the compressed gas tank 7 as the primary part of a device for storing gaseous fuel in the vehicle 2 shown here is therefore designed so that it has a temperature-dependent switching valve device 11.
- a temperature-dependent switching valve device 11 Such can be seen by way of example in the sectional view of FIG. It consists in
- valve body 12 and a temperature-sensitive element 13 which is formed in the embodiment shown here as a bimetallic spring.
- the valve device 11 is kept open in the normal operating state by the bimetal fields 13, so that the valve body 12 releases the flow-through cross section 14. If there is now an unintentional increase in temperature in the region of the compressed gas tank 7, the bimetallic spring 13 of the valve 11, which is integrated into the tank 11, is heated in addition to the gas present in the compressed gas tank 7. It can then, for example, from a limit temperature of about 90 ° C, push the valve body 12 by the heating bimetallic spring 13 in the flow-through cross-section 14. As a result, the occurring during refueling gas supply in the
- the temperature-sensitive element is here provided with the reference numeral 15 and represents a temperature sensor, for example a thermocouple.
- the signal generated by the temperature sensor 15 passes into an electronics 16, for example a control device, by this at least amplified, but in particular also processed.
- the valve device 11 which in this case may be designed, for example, as a magnetic valve, is then actuated. It is arranged in the embodiment shown here outside of the compressed gas tank 7, but can be arranged as well as the valve means 11 in the illustration of Figure 2 in the interior of the compressed gas tank 7.
- the control can preferably
- valve device 11 purely mechanical design of the valve device 11.
- Alternatives, for example, to a continuous movement of a valve body via a servo motor or the like are conceivable.
- Embodiment according to Figure 2 is automatic, realize a structure in which the solenoid valve is opened and closed in a clocked manner. Such a strategy may, for example, be deposited accordingly in the electronics 16. At higher
- Temperatures can then be realized by modulating the pulse width an even lower influx of fresh gas when refueling in the compressed gas tank 7, at even higher temperatures, the valve device 11 can also be completely closed, analogous to the mechanical embodiment described above.
