国外潜艇燃料电池AIP技术发展现状及趋势

Development status and trend of fuel cell-based AIP technology for submarines abroad

分析了燃料电池在常规潜艇领域的应用优势,简述了德、韩、法、俄、印、西等国潜艇燃料电池AIP技术的发展历程和技术现状。分析结果表明,世界主要军事强国均在潜艇燃料电池AIP技术方面投入了大量研发经费,212A、214、218SG、S80等多型燃料电池AIP潜艇已陆续服役或下水,燃料电池AIP技术已经成为常规潜艇动力系统的主要发展方向。为了进一步提升常规潜艇隐蔽性和续航力,燃料电池AIP技术呈现出三个方面的发展趋势,一是燃料电池电堆模块向高电流密度和功率密度方向发展,二是氢源技术由合金储氢向现场制氢方向发展,三是燃料电池系统向高功率等级、高储能量方向发展。

This paper analyzes the application advantages of fuel cell-based AIP system in the field of conventional submarines,and briefly describes the development history and current status of AIP technology for submarines in Germany,South Korea,France,Russia,India and Spain.The analysis results show that major military powers in the world have invested a large amount of research and development funds in fuel cell-based AIP technology.Many types of submarine such as 212A,214,218SG,and S80 have been successively put into service or launched,and fuel cell-based AIP technology has become the main development direction of conventional submarine power systems.In order to further improve the concealment and endurance of conventional submarines,fuel cell-based AIP technology presents three development trends:first,the fuel cell stack modules is developing towards high current density/power density;the second is the development of hydrogen source technology from alloy hydrogen storage to on-site hydrogen production;and the third is the development of fuel cell systems towards high power levels and high energy storage.
