TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A HIGH-TEMPERATURE BATTERY OR A HIGH-TEMPERATURE ELECTROLYZER

摘要

The invention relates to a control system (1) for controlling the temperature in a high-temperature battery (5) to which hot air is supplied via an air duct system (2) or in a high-temperature electrolyzer (5) to which hot air is supplied via an air duct system (2). The control system includes at least two temperature probes (10, 11) which are designed to detect the temperature at two different points (O1, O2) in the air duct system (2), at least one first air-conditioning unit (20) for physically conditioning the air, said at least one first air-conditioning unit being mounted in the air duct system (2) upstream of the high-temperature battery (5) or high-temperature electrolyzer (5), and a recirculation duct (30) which recirculates hot air discharged from the high-temperature battery (5) or high-temperature electrolyzer (5) to a point in the air duct system (2) and feeds said hot air back into the air duct system, said point being upstream of the high-temperature battery (5) or high-temperature electrolyzer (5). The control system (1) controls the first air-conditioning unit (20) in accordance with the temperatures detected by the temperature probes (10, 11).
