CONTROL STRATEGIES FOR THERMAL COUPLING SYSTEM OF FUEL CELL AND METAL HYDRIDE TANK: A REVIEW

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The utilization of hydrogen storage unit in distribute energy system (DES) attracts wide attentions, and storing hydrogen with metal hydrides (MH) have been explored as a promising way considering the high volumetric density and relative safety. To improve system efficiency and compactness, the thermal coupling of fuel cell (FC) and MH tank is proposed. However, the strong interactions in the system introduces challenges for meeting the power demand satisfactorily, thus various control strategies have been proposed. The aim of this study is to review the control strategies of thermal coupling system in multiple scenarios comprehensively. The literature survey illustrates that the traditional linear controller e.g. PID can realize a good tracking performance in some application, but the output may fluctuate with fast-changing signal, and nonlinear multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) controller is hence recommended in this case.
