Modeling and Energy Management Strategy Research of Fuel Cell Bus

Abstract:

A forward simulation model of a fuel cell bus was established based on ADVISOR. A fuzzy energy management strategy was also formulated. In order to improve the fuel cell durability, an improved fuzzy control energy management strategy was proposed. The simulation results under the typical urban operating conditions in China show that the proposed energy management strategy is better than the traditional power-following energy management strategy in terms of vehicle economy and fuel cell durability.
