Control and Performance Assessment of Fuel Cell/Supercapacitor Hybrid Systems
摘要
This paper presents the control of a fully active Fuel Cell (FC)—Supercapacitor (SC) hybrid system using sliding mode control (SMC) theory. The suggested SMC technique is developed based on the system’s nonlinear model, utilizing Lyapunov stability design techniques. The proposed control technique enables tight regulation of the DC bus voltage, high tracking performance of the SC and FC current to their references and ensures asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system. Numerical simulations are provided to demonstrate that the proposed technique achieves all desired objectives.
