Performance of the Fuel Economy Strategies for Fuel Cell Systems under Power Tracking Control

In this paper, the Fueling Optimization (FO) Strategies based on the Power Tracking Control (PTC) required on DC bus from the Fuel Cell (FC) Systems is reviewed. Specific performance indicators are defined to show that a FO strategy is part of a defined class and that they are all part of the PTC-based strategy class. In addition, a linear relationship will be specifically determined between the load demand and the fuel consumption using a FO strategy.
