Abstract

This paper presents an improvement in the operational state control strategy (OSCS) for the fuel cell/battery/supercapacitor hybrid electric vehicle. The main objective of this paper is to present the detailed comparative study between the OSCS and the improved OSCS for the performance enhancement of hybrid energy sources (HESs) mainly in terms of stress on the fuel cell, battery state of charge (SOC), and the dynamics of the individual sources. The low pass filter is added in the OSCS for the desired improvement. The simulation is carried out in MATLAB/Simulink environment for the high dynamic arbitrary and standard ECE-15 driving cycles. The
results indicate that the improved OSCS ensures the fuel cell to operate at nearly constant power with reduced stress, improvement in the SOC level of battery and better dynamics of the individual energy sources.
