Abstract

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) vehicles are regarded as the most promising green transportation option, but their widespread adoption is hindered by cost and longevity, and temperature of PEMFCs stack is a crucial factor affecting both efficiency and longevity. Current researches on temperature control mainly focus on the iterative updates of control methods and performance optimization, while there is relatively little research on the detailed analysis of control objectives. Therefore this paper developed an active optimal control strategy for stack temperature with adaptive control objective to enhance the output performance of PEMFCs in hybrid systems. To this end, firstly, a quantitative mapping relationship between operating temperature and current was established through experimental calibration, identifying the optimal temperature path for maximizing output voltage at different current levels. Secondly, a control-oriented voltage model was developed to describe the phenomenon observed experimentally, where the output voltage initially increased and then decreased with the monotonically increasing stack temperature, provided that other parameters remain constant. Finally, an active optimal control strategy is proposed, which actively adjusts the temperature control objective in real-time according to the prevailing operating current and the predetermined optimal temperature path. The comparative validations under both static and dynamic conditions, utilizing three different control methods, demonstrated that the proposed active optimal control strategy clearly outperforms normal control strategy. The maximum performance enhancements achieved were 1.15%, 1.21%, and 1.30%, respectively.

燃料电池温度自适应控制目标的实验分析和优化控制
质子交换膜燃料电池(PEMFCs)汽车被认为是最有前途的绿色交通工具,但其广泛应用受到成本和寿命的阻碍,而 PEMFCs 堆的温度是影响效率和寿命的关键因素。目前有关温度控制的研究主要集中在控制方法的迭代更新和性能优化上,而对控制目标进行详细分析的研究相对较少。因此,本文开发了一种具有自适应控制目标的堆栈温度主动优化控制策略,以提高混合动力系统中 PEMFC 的输出性能。为此,首先通过实验校准建立了工作温度与电流之间的定量映射关系,确定了在不同电流水平下输出电压最大化的最佳温度路径。其次,建立了一个以控制为导向的电压模型,以描述实验观察到的现象,即在其他参数保持不变的情况下,随着堆栈温度的单调升高,输出电压最初升高,然后降低。最后,还提出了一种主动优化控制策略,即根据当时的工作电流和预定的最佳温度路径,实时主动调整温度控制目标。利用三种不同的控制方法,在静态和动态条件下进行的对比验证表明,所提出的主动优化控制策略明显优于普通控制策略。所实现的最大性能提升分别为 1.15%、1.21% 和 1.30%。

期刊介绍: eTransportation is a scholarly journal that aims to advance knowledge in the field of electric transportation. It focuses on all modes of transportation that utilize electricity as their primary source of energy, including electric vehicles, trains, ships, and aircraft. The journal covers all stages of research, development, and testing of new technologies, systems, and devices related to electrical transportation. The journal welcomes the use of simulation and analysis tools at the system, transport, or device level. Its primary emphasis is on the study of the electrical and electronic aspects of transportation systems. However, it also considers research on mechanical parts or subsystems of vehicles if there is a clear interaction with electrical or electronic equipment. Please note that this journal excludes other aspects such as sociological, political, regulatory, or environmental factors from its scope.
