Abstract
Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors have recently gained momentum. In this study, a fuel cell stack, namely, a Proton-Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), one of the promising renewable energy technologies, is chosen for a brushless DC motor. To improve the performance of PEMFC, an efficient maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm was applied to the DC/DC boost converter. To this end, the perturbation and observation (P&O) algorithm were developed. This work proposes an adaptive controller proportional-integral (PI)-fuzzy logic speed for the BLDC. To evaluate its performance, the proposed controller was simulated under several conditions: load disturbance and reference speed variation. This controller is analyzed and compared with the classical PI controller. Therefore, the control performance parameters, such as rise time, settling time, steady-state error, and overshoot, were determined and compared. This system is analyzed and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink software.
