Abstract

Abstract Aiming at the problem of the applicability of active and semi-active structures of hybrid energy storage units to the complex working conditions of ships in the hydrogen fuel cell electric propulsion system of ships, a comparative study of such structures is carried out in terms of the control strategy, capacity design and optimization effect, respectively. The hybrid energy storage unit in the active structure, supercapacitor and battery, are both connected to the DC bus through the converter. In the hybrid energy storage unit in the semi-active structure, the battery is connected to the low-voltage DC bus through the converter flow in parallel with the supercapacitor, and then connected to the DC bus through the converter. Two kinds of hydrogen fuel cell electric propulsion ship system topology simulation models were established by MATLAB/Simulink respectively, and simulation verification was carried out. The simulation results show that the hybrid energy storage unit with an active structure has stronger adaptability in complex working conditions during ship operation.
