Abstract

It is well known that an indirect methanol based fuel cell system imposes a performance limitation on the fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) due to the reformer lag. An optional battery system can be used together with fuel cell to improve this performance limitation and it is called a fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle (FCHEV) this paper first describes the configuration of FCHEV with explanation of the energy flow between subsystems. Mathematical modeling of each subsystem such as a fuel cell system, a battery system, a driving motor with the transmission are formulated and coded using Matlab/simulink software. It is illustrated by simulation results that fuel cell modeling yields appropriate stack voltage in order to get the required current quantity with varying hydrogen flow.
