Abstract

Fuel cell system is an unconventional energy source that can be used in various stand-alone applications. The fuel cell gives an unstabilized voltage that is exclusively unacceptable for segregated applications. The primary objective of this study is to design an appropriate power conditioning unit that comprises of DC-DC converter stages along with DC-AC inverter. The capacitance and resistance are dependent on the proton exchange membrane fuel cell and cause electrical effects due to the behavioral changes of the output voltage of the fuel cell stack. This article discusses the electrical parameters of dynamic model of proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Its dynamic model was related to the boost converter-averaged dynamic model that is obtained by using the mathematical model of the boost converter circuit. This circuit keeps the output voltage of the converter constant and is being fed into the inverter to rectify the voltage, and a filter is also used to eliminate harmonics in the AC signal.
