In this paper we present firstly the different hybrid systems with fuel cell. Then, the study is given with a hybrid fuel cell–photovoltaic generator. The role of this system is the production of electricity without interruption in remote areas. It consists generally of a photovoltaic generator (PV), an alkaline water electrolyzer, a storage gas tank, a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), and power conditioning units (PCU) to manage the system operation of the hybrid system. Different topologies are competing for an optimal design of the hybrid photovoltaic–electrolyzer–fuel cell system. The studied system is proposed. PV subsystem work as a primary source, converting solar irradiation into electricity that is given to a DC bus. The second working subsystem is the electrolyzer which produces hydrogen and oxygen from water as a result of an electrochemical process. When there is an excess of solar generation available, the electrolyzer is turned on to begin producing hydrogen which is sent to a storage tank. The produced hydrogen is used by the third working subsystem (the fuel cell stack) which produces electrical energy to supply the DC bus. The modelisation of the global system is given and the obtained results are presented and discussed.  相似文献

Hydrogen is considered as the optimal carrier for the surplus energy storage from renewable resources. Although hydrogen and its application in fuel cell is considered as a high-cost energy system, some cost-efficient solutions have been found for their use in stand-alone applications, which usually depend on the variability of renewable sources that have to be oversized in order to reduce their dependence on external energy sources. This paper shows the results from the simulation of several alternatives of introducing hydrogen technologies to increase the independence of a remote-telecom application fed by photovoltaic panels. Hydrogen is obtained by electrolysis and it is used in a fuel cell when the renewable energy source is not enough to maintain the stand-alone application. TRNSYS simulation environment has been used for evaluating the proposed alternatives. The results show that the best configuration option is that considering the use of hydrogen as a way to storage the surplus of radiation and the management system can vary the number of photovoltaic panels assigned to feed the hydrogen generation, the batteries or the telecom application.  相似文献

Fuel cell (FC) technology is showing excellent promise for many applications ranging from portable devices to vehicular systems. A stand-alone FC may not always satisfy the fast and transient load demands of a vehicular power system. As a result, FC units are usually hybridized with supplementary sources to meet the total power demand of the vehicle. In this paper, the energy demands of a light vehicle (a passenger cart) is developed using a hybrid power supply system involving a photovoltaic (PV) panel, a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and a battery based energy storage system (ESS). In addition, the details of the physical construction of the modified hybrid cart are given. The most critical feature of an energy management strategy for a multiple-source based hybrid vehicle is the sharing of fast and transient load demands among the available power sources. For this purpose, a 300-s drive cycle is created in this paper to test the effectiveness of the load sharing strategy between FC, battery pack and PV panel. It is found that PEMFC dominates slow and moderate dynamic behaviors of the vehicle, while fast response of the battery group governs the rapid dynamic behaviors. The results also show that the integrating PV panel contributes noticeably to the dynamic behaviors of the system. Furthermore, a control-oriented simulation model for a PEMFC unit is verified with experimental data to test the success of the proposed technique.  相似文献

An economic evaluation of a hybrid wind/photovoltaic/fuel cell (FC) generation system for a typical home in the Pacific Northwest is performed. In this configuration the combination of a FC stack, an electrolyser, and hydrogen storage tanks is used as the energy storage system. This system is compared to a traditional hybrid energy system with battery storage. A computer program has been developed to size system components in order to match the load of the site in the most cost effective way. A cost of electricity, an overall system cost, and a break-even distance analysis are also calculated for each configuration. The study was performed using a graphical user interface programmed in MATLAB.  相似文献

The objective of this paper is to mathematically model a stand-alone renewable power system, referred to as “Photovoltaic–Fuel Cell (PVFC) hybrid system”, which maximizes the use of a renewable energy source. It comprises a photovoltaic generator (PV), a water electrolyzer, a hydrogen tank, and a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell generator. A multi-domain simulation platform Simplorer is employed to model the PVFC hybrid systems. Electrical power from the PV generator meets the user loads when there is sufficient solar radiation. The excess power from the PV generator is then used for water electrolysis to produce hydrogen. The fuel cell generator works as a backup generator to supplement the load demands when the PV energy is deficient during a period of low solar radiation, which keeps the system's reliability at the same level as for the conventional system. Case studies using the present model have shown that the present hybrid system has successfully tracked the daily power consumption in a typical family. It also verifies the effectiveness of the proposed management approach for operation of a stand-alone hybrid system, which is essential for determining a control strategy to ensure efficient and reliable operation of each part of the hybrid system. The present model scheme can be helpful in the design and performance analysis of a complex hybrid-power system prior to practical realization.  相似文献

An economic model and optimization procedure is developed in this paper for grid-connected hybrid wind–hydrogen combined heat and power systems for residential applications in northeastern Iran. The model considers various significant factors: energy production cost, electrical trade with local grid, electrical power generation from the wind/hydrogen energy system, thermal recovery from the fuel cell, and maintenance. Also, various tariffs for purchasing and selling electrical energy from the local grid are considered for the hybrid system operation. The optimization objective is to minimize the system total cost subject to relevant constraints for residential applications. To achieve this aim, an efficient optimization method is proposed based on particle swarm optimization. The proposed algorithm performance is compared with that for the imperialist competition algorithm. The results show that the hybrid system is the most cost-effective for the residential load, and the results of the proposed algorithm are more promising than those for the alternative algorithm.  相似文献

Renewable energy sources have been taken the place of the traditional energy sources and especially rapidly developments of photovoltaic (PV) technology and fuel cell (FC) technology have been put forward these renewable energy sources (RES) in all other RES. PV systems have been started to be used widely in domestic applications connected to electrical grid and grid connected PV power generating systems have become widespread all around the world. On the other hand, fuel cell power generating systems have been used to support the PV generating so hybrid generation systems consist of PV and fuel cell technology are investigated for power generating. In this study, a grid connected fuel cell and PV hybrid power generating system was developed with Matlab Simulink. 160 Wp solar module was developed based on solar module temperature and solar irradiation by using real data sheet of a commercial PV module and then by using these modules 800 Wp PV generator was obtained. Output current and voltage of PV system was used for input of DC/DC boost converter and its output was used for the input of the inverter. PV system was connected to the grid and designed 5 kW solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system was used for supporting the DC bus of the hybrid power generating system. All results obtained from the simulated hybrid power system were explained in the paper. Proposed model was designed as modular so designing and simulating grid connected SOFC and PV systems can be developed easily thanks to flexible design.  相似文献

Hybridizing a fuel cell with an energy storage unit (battery or supercapacitor) combines the advantages of each device to deliver a system with high efficiency, low emissions, and extended operation compared to a purely fuel cell or battery/supercapacitor system. However, the benefits of such a system can only be realised if the system is properly designed and sized, based on the technologies available and the application involved. In this work we present a sizing-design methodology for hybridisation of a fuel cell with a battery or supercapacitor for applications with a cyclic load profile with two discrete power levels. As an example of the method's application, the design process for selecting the energy storage technology, sizing it for the application, and determining the fuel load/range limitations, is given for an unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV). A system level mass and energy balance shows that hydrogen and oxygen storage systems dominate the mass and volume of the energy system and consequently dictate the size and maximum mission duration of a UUV.  相似文献

This paper investigates the benefits of sharing a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) in a distributed hybrid power system. The PEMFC is usually used as backup power in stationary hybrid power systems; however, in that scenario, it might be working only 2% of the time while incurring 20% of the system expenses. Therefore, this paper examines the potential of sharing a PEMFC among multiple power systems. We develop a distributed hybrid power system that comprises several immovable power stations and a fuel-cell vehicle (FCV). Each power station is equipped with solar panels and batteries, while the FCV contains a PEMFC module and can move among the stations to provide sustainable power as needed. We propose power management strategies and show that the total system costs can be significantly reduced by 10.83% and 17.89% when sharing one FCV between three and twelve power stations, respectively. We also design experiments to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed distributed hybrid power system. In the future, the developed model can be extended to provide further cost reductions by optimizing distributed hybrid power systems with multiple FCVs.  相似文献

This includes determination of the optimum values of set points for the starting and stopping of the diesel generator to minimise the overall system costs.

A mobile renewable house using PV/wind/fuel cell hybrid power system   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A photovoltaic/wind/fuel cell hybrid power system for stand-alone applications is proposed and demonstrated with a mobile house. This concept shows that different renewable sources can be used simultaneously to power off-grid applications. The presented mobile house can produce sufficient power to cover the peak load. Photovoltaic and wind energy are used as primary sources and a fuel cell as backup power for the system. The power budgeting of the system is designed based on the local data of solar radiation and wind availability. Further research will focus on the development of the data acquisition system and the implementation of automatic controls for power management.  相似文献

Titanium with excellent corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength and lightweight is an ideal BPP material for unitized regenerative fuel cell (URFC), but the easy-passivation property accordingly results in poor cell performance. Surface modification is needed to improve the interfacial conductivity. In this study, Ti-Ag film is prepared on TA1 titanium as bipolar plates for URFC by pulsed bias arc ion plating (PBAIP). Interfacial conductivity of Ti-Ag/Ti is improved obviously, presenting an interfacial contact resistance of 4.3 mΩ cm2 under 1.4 MPa. The results tested by potentiodynamic, potentiostatic and stepwise potentiostatic measures in simulated URFC environments show that Ti-Ag/Ti has good anticorrosion performance, especially at high potential. The corrosion current density of Ti-Ag/Ti is approximately 10−5.0 A cm−2, similar to that of uncoated titanium, at 2.00 V (vs. NHE) in a 0.5 M H2SO4 + 5 ppm F solution at 70 °C with pressured air purging. Ti-Ag/Ti sample also has low surface energy. The contact angle of the sample with water is 102.7°, which is beneficial for water management in URFC. The bipolar plate with cost-effective Ti-Ag film combines the prominent interfacial conductivity with the excellent corrosion resistance at high potential, showing great potential of application in URFC.  相似文献

A parametric study is conducted on a hybrid SOFC-GT cycle as part of a national program aiming to improve the efficiency of the actual gas turbine power plants and to better undertake the future investigations. The proposed power plant is mainly constituted by a Gas Turbine cycle, a SOFC system, and an ammonia water absorption refrigerating system. An external pre-reformer is installed before the SOFC. Heat recovery systems are adopted to valorize the waste heat at the SOFC and GT exhausts. The gas from the SOFC exhaust is also used as additional supply for the combustion chamber. An extraction is performed on the gas Turbine in order to feed the SOFC cycle by thermal heat flux at medium pressure.The equations governing the electrochemical processes, the energy and the exergy balances of the power plant components are established. Numerical simulation using EES software is performed. The influences of key operating parameters, such as humidity, pre-reforming fraction, extraction fraction from the Gas Turbine and fuel utilization on the performances of the SOFC-GT hybrid system are analyzed. Obtained results show that the integration of the SOFC enhances significantly the hybrid overall cycle efficiency. The increase of the ambient temperature and humidity reduces the system efficiencies. The utilization factor has a negative effect on the SOFC temperature and voltage. That leads to a decrease in the power plant performances. While the pre-reforming fraction, has a positive effect on the indicated parameters.  相似文献

The aim of this work is to analyze methane-fed internal reforming solid oxide fuel cell–gas turbine (IRSOFC—GT) power generation system based on the first and second law of thermodynamics. Exergy analysis is used to indicate the thermodynamic losses in each unit and to assess the work potentials of the streams of matter and of heat interactions. The system consists of a prereformer, a SOFC stack, a combustor, a turbine, a fuel compressor and air compressor, recuperators and a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). A parametric study is also performed to evaluate the effect of various parameters such as fuel flow rate, air flow rate, temperature and pressure on system performance.  相似文献

This research develops an efficient and robust polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell/battery hybrid operating system. The entire system possesses its own rapid dynamic response benefited from hybrid connection and power split characteristics due to DC/DC buck-boost converter. An indispensable energy management system (EMS) plays a significant role in achieving optimal fuel economy and in a promising running stability. EMS as an indispensable part plays a significant role in achieving optimal fuel economy and promising operation stability. This study aims to develop an adaptive supervisory EMS that comprises computer-aided engineering tools to monitor, control, and optimize the performance of the hybrid power system. A stationary fuel cell/battery hybrid operating system is optimized using adaptive-Pontryagin's minimum principle (A-PMP). The proposed algorithm depends on the adaptation of the control parameter (i.e., fuel cell output power) from the state of charge (SOC) and load power feedback. The integrated model simulated in a Matlab/Simulink environment includes the fuel cell, battery, DC/DC converter, and power requirements models by analyzing the three different load profiles. Real-time experiments are performed to verify the effectiveness of EMS after analyzing the simulated operating principle and control scheme.  相似文献

This paper presents the work on the design and part-load operations of a hybrid power system composed of a pressurized molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) and a micro-gas turbine (MGT). The gas turbine is an existing one and the MCFC is assumed to be newly designed for the hybrid system. Firstly, the MCFC power and total system power are determined based on the existing micro-gas turbine according to the appropriate MCFC operating temperature. The characteristics of hybrid system on design point are shown. And then different control methods are applied to the hybrid system for the part-load operation. The effect of different control methods is analyzed and compared in order to find the optimal control strategy for the system. The results show that the performance of hybrid system during part-load operation varies significantly with different control methods. The system has the best efficiency when using variable rotational speed control for the part-load operation. At this time both the turbine inlet temperature and cell operating temperature are close to the design value, but the compressor would cross the surge line when the shaft speed is less than 70% of the design shaft speed. For the gas turbine it is difficult to obtain the original power due to the higher pressure loss between compressor and turbine.  相似文献

A new generation of load controllers enable stand-alone power systems (SAPS) to use one or many standard (grid connected) wind turbines. The controllers use fuzzy logic software algorithms. The strategy is to use the control loads to balance the flow of active power in the system and hence control system frequency. The dynamic supply of reactive power by a synchronous compensator maintains the system voltage within the limits specified in EN50160. The resistive controller loads produce a certain amount of heat that is exchanged down to the end user (hot water). It was decided to investigate the implementation of a hydrogen subsystem into the SAPS that can work in parallel with the Distributed Intelligent Load Controller (DILC). The hydrogen subsystem can then function as energy storage on long-term basis and an active load controller on short-term basis.  相似文献

This paper focuses on the combination of wind turbine (WT), photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC) and ultra-capacitor (UC) systems for grid-independent applications. The dynamic behavior of the proposed hybrid system is tested under various wind speed, solar radiation and load demand conditions. The developed model and its control strategy exhibit excellent performance for the simulation of a complete day. In the simulation, the solar radiation and power demand data are based on real world measurements, while the wind speed data are quasi-real because it is simulated based on special wind speed generation algorithms.  相似文献

Advanced biogas power generation technology has been attracting attentions, which contributes to the waste disposal and the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. This work proposes and models a novel biogas-fed hybrid power generation system consisting of solid oxide fuel cell, water gas shift reaction, thermal swing adsorption and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (SOFC-WGS-TSA-PEMFC). The thermodynamic, exergetic, and thermo-economic analyses of this hybrid system for power generation were conducted to comprehensively evaluate its performance. It was found that the novel biogas-fed hybrid system has a gross energy conversion efficiency of 68.63% and exergy efficiency of 65.36%, indicating high efficiency for this kind of hybrid power technology. The market sensitivity analysis showed that the hybrid system also has a low sensitivity to market price fluctuation. Under the current subsidy level for the distributed biogas power plant, the levelized cost of energy can be lowered to 0.02942 $/kWh for a 1 MW scale system. Accordingly, the payback period and annual return on investment can reach 1.4 year and about 20%, respectively. These results reveal that the proposed hybrid system is promising and economically feasible as a distributed power plant, especially for the small power scale (no more than 2 MW).  相似文献

Results related to the development and testing of a unitized regenerative fuel cell (URFC) based on proton-exchange membrane (PEM) technology are reported. A URFC is an electrochemical device which can operate either as an electrolyser for the production of hydrogen and oxygen (water electrolysis mode) or as a H2/O2 fuel cell for the production of electricity and heat (fuel cell mode). The URFC stack described in this paper is made of seven electrochemical cells (256 cм2 active area each). The nominal electric power consumption in electrolysis mode is of 1.5 kW and the nominal electric power production in fuel cell mode is 0.5 kW. A mean cell voltage of 1.74 V has been measured during water electrolysis at 0.5 A cm−2 (85% efficiency based on the thermoneutral voltage of the water splitting reaction) and a mean cell voltage of 0.55 V has been measured during fuel cell operation at the same current density (37% electric efficiency based on the thermoneutral voltage). Preliminary stability tests are satisfactory. Further tests are scheduled to assess the potentialities of the stack on the long term.  相似文献
