Abstract
Hydrogen, being the most abundant element in the universe, holds great promise as an energy carrier for decarbonizing various economic sectors. In particular, green hydrogen production through water electrolysis is essential for achieving this goal, with polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers playing a crucial role. PEM water electrolyzers are known for their rapid response, enabling them to effectively adapt to fluctuations in renewable energy sources. Nevertheless, rapid load changes can result in the rapid build-up of heat within the electrolytic cell, leading to a sharp increase in temperature and potentially harming the cell. To address this challenge, we developed an electrolysis water system model using MATLAB and validated its accuracy through experiments. This model allowed us to explore the factors influencing stack temperature and propose a fast and secure dynamic process control strategy. By laying the groundwork for subsequent control studies on PEMEC (Proton Exchange Membrane Electrolysis Cell) stacks and systems, this research facilitates further progress in their control and regulation.
