Significant part of hydrogen is inevitably wasted as a result of essential periodical vent of accumulated gaseous and liquid impurities, which degrades hydrogen flow rate and hydrogen concentration, in hydrogen recirculation system (HRS) for anode reaction chamber of the stack. Estimation of hydrogen flow rate is the key to improving hydrogen utilization rate, because impurities can be vented only when actual flow rate is lower than acceptable range. This paper investigates dynamic model of the HRS to construct connection between hydrogen flow rate and obtainable parameters. Firstly, lumped-parameter dynamic model is established for the recirculation pump-driven and ejector-driven HRS. Coupling mechanism between hydrogen flow rate and pressure of each recirculation apparatus is introduced to dynamic model, and then transfer function between pressure at inlet and outlet of anode chamber is derived for estimation of hydrogen flow rate in comparison. According to Nyquist plot, the recirculation pump-driven HRS behaves as a common first-order or second-order inertial system while the ejector-driven HRS behaves as a novel shifted first-order system. Secondly, effect of purge valve action on flow rate of the ejector-driven HRS is analyzed in analogical way based on transition between operating points on ejector characteristic curve. It shows that opening purge valve contributes to larger flow rate, even if pressure at backflow inlet is decreased. Thirdly, experiment on plant of an ejector-driven HRS shows that Nyquist plot of transfer function in complex coordinate is a circle with origin included and it's in consistent with that by dynamic model. Besides, relation is found between circle radius and flow rate at ejector outlet. Finally, experiment result on a 120 kW fuel cell system validates explanation to effect of opening purge valve on hydrogen flow rate of the ejector-driven HRS.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36355,"journal":{"name":"Etransportation","volume":"25 ","pages":"Article 100438"},"PeriodicalIF":15.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144321537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a dedicated experimental platform was developed to systematically investigate the thermal control performance of cooling methods, immersion heights, battery placements, ambient temperatures, and dielectric fluid types (transformer oil, silicone oil, and fluorinated liquids). The results indicate that fully immersing the LIB in transformer oil reduces the battery maximum temperature by 30–35 % compared to natural air convection, while maintaining heat dissipation rate of 45–60 %. Under high discharge rates (5 C), the battery temperature can be effectively kept below the 60 °C safety threshold. Furthermore, the natural convection patterns in the fluid and heat transfer characteristics were analyzed. It is found that fluid natural convection may increase the temperature difference when the battery is immersed upright, whereas an inverted configuration could improve temperature uniformity. Besides, among the tested dielectric fluids, fluorinated liquid exhibits superior performance, achieving a heat dissipation rate of 54.13 %, attributed to its high heat capacity and low viscosity.

In this study, we propose a new physics-informed machine learning method that integrates an aging-aware electrochemical model with a recurrent neural network, creating a physics-informed recurrent neural network (PI-RNN). This hybrid model leverages both physics-based insights and data-driven learning to predict capacity fade under diverse usage conditions, including transitions from first- to second-life applications. We evaluate PI-RNN using two datasets: an open-source NASA dataset comprising 28 lithium cobalt oxide/graphite cells, and a newly collected dataset of 39 commercial lithium iron phosphate/graphite cells, where cells were initially cycled to 80% capacity in their first life before undergoing milder cycling in their second life. While PI-RNN performs comparably to data-driven models in the first-life phase, it demonstrates a clear advantage in second-life forecasting, reducing root mean squared error by approximately 40%–70% compared to baseline models when forecasting periods span the transition from first to second life, even when trained on as few as two cells. Parametric studies highlight the advantages of incorporating physics-based modeling, and uncertainty quantification ensures the reliability of long-term capacity forecasting.

The model is rigorously validated by comparing simulation results with experimental voltage and temperature profiles, as well as spatially resolved data from IR-based temperature mapping and MFI-based current density measurements. Simulation results demonstrate that higher C-rates cause greater temperature rises—24.48 °C (1C), 54.88 °C (3C), and 81.08 °C (5C)—and larger local temperature deviations—0.65 °C (1C), 5.23 °C (3C), 13.25 °C (5C)—highlighting the significant thermal effects associated with higher C-rates. By correlating overpotential with heat generation, the analysis reveals the electrochemical origins of temperature rise and thermal inhomogeneity.

Moreover, reversible heat significantly rises towards the end of discharge, reaching 59.23 W, comparable to reaction heat.

In this work, the numerical model is developed and validated through the mini-module sized test jig with top cover made of steel. The magnitude of top cover deformation, temperature distributions on the outer surface, and temporal variation of internal pressure are measured simultaneously under thermal runaway propagation condition. Degraded mechanical properties of top cover material at elevated temperatures are measured by tensile coupon tests and applied as input data of the model. It is found that the overall magnitude of the deformation of top cover during thermal runaway propagation is determined by the degree of the initial pressure rise, and the detailed behavior is more sensitive to the local temperature distribution. The present numerical model can capture the dynamic deformation behavior of the top cover with a relatively good accuracy, and highly detailed location-specific temperature and pressure gradient information can improve the accuracy.
