Performance analysis and optimization of a vehicular LT-PEMFC for maximum power density and efficiency based on NSGA-II algorithm

Based on finite temporal thermodynamics (FTT), a model for a low-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (LT-PEMFC) is created. The link between the LT-PEMFC’s output power density and efficiency was determined using the aforementioned model. The experimental results confirm the algorithm model’s accuracy. Investigations are also conducted into how the design and operating parameters affect the LT-PEMFC’s output outcomes. Moreover, the NSGA-II technique is used to maximize the power density and efficiency of the LT-PEMFC for multi-objective optimization. The experiment outcomes demonstrate that the optimized LT-PEMFC model performs better at output. The related powertrain design scheme for the various output performances of Fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) is provided by LT-PEMFC optimization. It is demonstrated by the study of simulation data that the optimized LT-PEMFC achieves reduced hydrogen consumption and higher FCV efficiency.
