Study on fuel cell performance and optimization of fuel cell electric vehicle systems by driving simulation

摘要

The objective of this study was to estimate the optimization of fuel cell electric vehicle Systems by the driving simulation that we developed. The results of the driving simulation showed the power of fuel cell, battery and motor is 12, 18 and 15kW at the condition of 10-15 mode of the minimum fuel consumption. The fuel consumption of the series FCEV was more than the parallel FCEV because of the heavy vehicle weight of the series compared to the parallel. The numerical analysis showed that the FCEV performance is affected by the regenerative brake and the fuel consumption of the FCEV with the regenerative brake systems is 23% more than without them.
