摘要
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells are attractive energy conversion devices due to their fuel flexibility and high efficiency. Fuel utilization is a critical variable in SOFC systems that directly impacts efficiency and longevity. In this paper we propose a control strategy for mitigating drastic fluctuations in fuel utilization that arise during load transients. The strategy uses a feedback based dynamic input shaping approach. A preliminary control law derived from a model-based analysis forms the basis of this design. The strategy requires one fuel flow sensor upstream of the integrated fuel processor and admits convenient integration into a comprehensive hybrid fuel cell control algorithm.
