Simulation and optimization of hydrogen consumption in a fuel cell/battery hybrid vehicle
Abstract
This paper presents a physics-based mathematical model for a fuel cell hybrid vehicle system. The performance design of fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles (FCHEVs) is an area of interest in transportation applications. FCHEV is a combination of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), with a battery and associated DC/DC and DC/AC converters. Suitable batteries are used in FCHEV acts as a backup system with efficient energy management. The battery is designed for fast power transfer during transient response and constant performance without hydrogen. The power management schemes discussed are consistent with the most common modern power management techniques used in fuel cell vehicle applications, including: the state engine control strategies, rule-based fuzzy logic strategies, classical proportional integral control strategies, frequency fuzzy logic decoupling/control minimization strategies. Therefore, we tested and evaluated the reliability of the model using the MATLAB/Simulink environment, with mixed results.
