摘要
为进一步探究双极板几何形状对层间接触行为的影响,以金属双极板为对象,搭建了双极板压缩试验台,同时建立了双极板压缩试验有限元模型,根据压敏纸采集到的试验结果验证了模型的有效性.然后,分别搭建了梯形、矩形和波浪形三种常见截面形状的双极板有限元模型,并搭建了相应的双极板压缩试验有限元模型.通过仿真分析研究在不同装配载荷作用下双极板截面形状对层间接触行为的影响.结果表明:装配载荷大小和双极板截面形状对双极板与气体扩散层(Gas Diffusion Layer, GDL)之间的接触行为有显著影响;在不同装配载荷作用下,三种双极板肋下的GDL表面接触应力幅值均在0.5~2 MPa之间,均符合装配要求;在同等条件下,双极板肋宽度是决定双极板与GDL之间整体平均接触应力幅值和GDL平均侵入面积的主要因素;在三种双极板中,矩形双极板下的接触行为对装配载荷的变化更为敏感,并且矩形双极板下平均接触应力分布均匀性最差.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of bipolar plate geometry on the contact behavior of PEMFC.The bipolar plate compression test and the corresponding finite element(FE) model were developed taking a metal bipolar plate as an objective. The effectiveness of the FE model was validated against the experimental data collected by pressure-sensitive films. Then, the FE models of bipolar plates with trapezoidal, rectangular, and wavy section shapes and the corresponding compression tests were established, respectively. The effect of bipolar plate section shape on contact behavior under different assembly pressure was investigated by FE simulations. The results demonstrated that the assembly pressure and the section shape of the bipolar plate had a significant effect on the contact behavior between the bipolar plate and the gas diffusion layer(GDL). Under different assembly pressure, the amplitudes of GDL surface contact pressure beneath the ribs of three kinds of the bipolar plate were between 0.5-2 MPa, which can meet the assembly requirements. The rib width of the bipolar plate is the critical factor that determines the amplitude of the overall average contact pressure between the bipolar plate and GDL as well as the average intrusion area of GDL. Among those three kinds of bipolar plates, the contact behavior under the rectangular bipolar plate is more sensitive than others, while the uniformity of average contact pressure distribution is the worst.
