Assessment of Energy Management in a Fuel Cell/Battery Hybrid Vehicle
The energy management strategy plays a major role in hybrid platforms powered by fuel cells (FCs) and batteries. This paper presents an assessment of energy management focused on fuel economy and battery degradation. Particularly, a proposed heuristic strategy and the widely known equivalent consumption minimization strategy are compared with the optimal solution obtained offline via dynamic programming. The case study is based on a real FC hybrid vehicle. Accordingly, the powertrain model of the vehicle used for the simulations is validated experimentally, and the profile of the power demand is measured from the real application. The results show that the proposed strategy offers the same performance as the equivalent consumption minimization strategy when the battery degradation is prioritized, and in comparison with the optimal off-line solution, it can be seen that there is still margin for improvement in terms of battery degradation. ; This work was supported in part by the Scholarship Program BECAR of Ministerio de Modernizacion of Argentina, under Project DPI2015-69286-C3-1-R and Project DPI2015-69286-C3-2-R (MINECO/FEDER) of the Spanish Government, in part by the European Commission H2020 through the Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking Project under Project INN-BALANCE 735969 and Project REWIND LIFE13 ENV/ES/000280, in part by the Regional Government of Aragon to the Fluid Mechanics for a Clean Energy Research Group of LIFTEC under Grant T01_17R, in part by the Spanish State Research Agency through the Marí de Maeztu Seal of Excellence to IRI under Grant MDM-2016-0656, and in part by AGAUR of Generalitat de Catalunya through the Advanced Control Systems (SAC) Group under Grant 2017 SGR 482.
