Abstract
PEM Fuel Cell (PEMFC) system plays an important role in a future hydrogen economy. Numerical modeling is useful to evaluate and optimize PEM fuel cell system. Therefore, this paper developed an integrated numerical model for predicting the power output of PEMFC system and optimizing system operation parameters to achieve the maximal output power. The developed numerical model integrated the models of fuel cell stack itself and its auxiliary systems, which were quantitatively described and analyzed with calculation equations. Furthermore, the newly developed numerical model was applied to a PEMFC powered scooter to estimate the output power a PEMFC system and optimize the operation conditions parameters of its auxiliary systems based on optimization algorithm. This validates that the developed integrated numerical model is useful and reliable for predicting the net output power and achieving maximal net output power through optimizing the operating parameters of a PEMFC system.
