Abstract

In recent years, a dual winding motor drive has been proposed in the field of fuel cell vehicles due to its advantages of good performance and high robustness. This new topology and its basic control method have been widely investigated. However, the previous research has not considered the current dynamic property of a fuel cell when studying the power sharing control method, but this is an important research objective for fuel cell durability. Considering the current change principle of a fuel cell, an optimal steady-state control method based on a new dual winding motor architecture boost charging is proposed to optimize the fuel cell life. In addition, in view of the current circulation problem of the fuel cell side winding in the boost mode, a Bang-Bang-PI control algorithm with a relatively constant reference value is proposed to realize the current sharing control. On this basis, the optimized control of the output current ripple of the fuel cell is realized to ensure the steady-state of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Finally, the results show that this method can control the stability of the fuel cell efficiently.
