TY - JOUR TI - Modeling, system analysis and control of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell DO - https://doi.org/doi:10.7282/T3R213P6 PY - 2016 AB - This thesis presents a control technique for a 9th-order linearized Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cell model. This work starts with giving a brief introduction about the construction and working of PEM fuel cell. Then, various fuel cell subsystems and their corresponding non-linear dynamical equations are presented. These equations are simulated to obtain steady state operating points of the model which is further used in Jacobian linearization. The linearized model consists of nine states as opposed to the eight states of the linearized model available in the literature. A pole placement controller is designed for the linearized model to obtain desired transient performance. This work concludes with inspiring the readers about some future works that can be carried out on this model.
