Research on the Responses of the Hybrid Power System based on Energy Profiles

Abstract

The article contains the chosen results of research on the use of energy profiles controlling the operation of a group of devices powered by a hybrid power source. The concept of using alternative energy sources allows to reduce the total weight of the power system and model its behavior during work. Modern fuel cells are characterized with a very high energy density to mass ratio [Wh/kg], and the additional cooperation of supercapacitors and lithium-ion batteries supporting their operation ensures continuous operation and the required dynamics response while maintaining a low mass of the power supply system. The author presented the general configuration of the layout model, as well as the results of tests of individual elements included in the physical implementation of the hybrid power system.
