Development status and trends of centrifugal air compressors for fuel cell vehicles
As one of the core components of the fuel cell engine air supply system,the air compressor can meet the high-pressure ratio and large flow air requirements of the fuel cell stack by supercharging the air.Its performance directly affects the output performance and efficiency of the fuel cell engine.Centrifugal air compressors have gradually become the mainstream technology route of the industry due to their advantages of small size,high efficiency,fast response,and the maturity of key technologies of enterprises,and are the first choice for the current vehicle fuel cell system integration application.Giew the current development status of the rapid technology of air compressors for fuel cells in the industry,this paper briefly analyzes the technological development and trends of air compressors by comparing the performance and parameters of the main centrifugal air compressors in the industry.
