Anode Pressure Control of Fuel Cell Based on Model Predictive Control

Abstract

In this paper, a hydrogen supply system model of hydrogen fuel cell system with common rail is established. And then a kind of model predictive control—model algorithm control is taken to control the number of solenoid valves opened in common rail, so as to control the pressure of anode flow field. Finally, the simulation results show that this control method performs well in rise time, overshoot and pressure fluctuation. It means that this control method has characteristics of fast dynamic response and high steady-state precision.
