Abstract
This paper demonstrates the mathematical and MATLAB simulation model of 1 KW (28.8Vdc) PEM fuel cell system with boost convertor and RL load to analyze the yield behavior in accordance to control the hydrogen fuel utilization. Two cases have been designed to evaluate the performance of this model. In the first case, fuel cell parameters are examined with and without a fuel regulator that controls the hydrogen fuel rate while in the second case, the operating temperature of a fuel cell stack is varied to observe the impact on the system. PEM fuel cell based power systems can become an alternate choice in the transportation sector to overcome contamination concerns, especially in South Asia where the environmental issues are at peak. The purpose of this work is to introduce such environmentally friendly system of transportation in South Asia, especially in Pakistan and this stack model can be used as a prototype for developing FC based motorbike as currently no practical models have been tested in this region. Therefore, this model has unique advantages over the existing in the literature.
