Current Fed Step-up DC/DC Converter for Fuel Cell Inverter ApplicationsIn order to use hydrogen fuel cells in domestic applications either as main power supply or backup source, their low DC output voltage has to be matched to the level and frequency of the utility grid AC voltage. Such power converter systems usually consist of a DC-DC converter and a DC-AC inverter. Comparison of different current fed step-up DC/DC converters is done in this paper and a double inductor step-up push-pull converter investigated, presenting simulation and experimental results. The converter is elaborated for 1200 W power to match the rated power of the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell located in hydrogen fuel cell research laboratory of Riga Technical University.

Design And Manufacture

The paper presents the current development of the AOS-H2 electric motor-glider project. The project encompasses the design and manufacture of an electric propulsion system (EPS) and a CF/epoxy airframe to be used as a flying test platform for the designed EPS. A 40-kW electric motor is supplied by a 10-kW PEM fuel cell stack and a Li-ion battery during run-up and ascent and by the fuel cell stack alone during steady flight. The airframe and the EPS have been completed; the results of bench tests of the EPS have proved that it meets the established requirements..

Control of a perturbed electric power system comprised of a hydrogen fuel cell (HFC), boost and boost/buck DC–DC power converters, and the ultra-capacitor (UC) is considered within an electric vehicle application. A relative degree approach was applied to control the servomotor speed, which is the main controllable load of the electric car. This control is achieved in the presence of the torque disturbances via directly controlling the armature voltage. The direct voltage control was accomplished by controlling the HFC voltage and the UC current in the presence of the model uncertainties. Controlling the HFC and UC current based on the power balance approach eliminated the non-minimum phase property of the DC–DC boost converter. Conventional first order sliding mode controllers (1-SMC) were employed to control the output voltage of the DC–DC boost power converter and the load current of the UC. The current in HFC and the servomotor speed were controlled by the adaptive-gain second order SMC (2-ASMC). The efficiency and robustness of the HFC/UC-based electric power systems controlled by 1-SMC and 2-ASMC were confirmed on a case study of electric car speed control via computer simulations.

Intelligent Power Management

The objective of this work is to develop a power management system that will control the power flow of an integrated renewable energy system with the focus on solar energy and wind energy and dual energy storage systems (batteries are used as the primary energy storage system for short to moderate storage term, whereas hydrogen fuel cell is used as a backup and long-term energy storage). These storage systems are needed to provide high reliability and control systems are necessary for the stable and optimal operation of the whole system. An Intelligent Power Management System (IPMS) is developed to handle various changes in power supply and power demand by managing erratic power and provide suitable control algorithm for the whole system. In order to test and validate the proposed IPMS model, simulations were conducted under various power supply and power demand using power system modeled in HOMER environment. The performed simulations confirm the ability of the IPMS to satisfy the load at all times using solar and wind power (which are unsteady renewables), through the support of batteries and hydrogen fuel cell without a reduction in the power quality or load supply.
