Abstract

In this paper, we derive a data-driven dynamic model of a dead-end cascade-type proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. We employ an Artificial neural network (ANN) method to build the nonlinear black-box model of the PEM fuel cell stack. Both anode and cathode sides of the stack are composed of two stages which the second stages of them operate in a dead-end condition. Identification experiments are accomplished for a 400 W PEM fuel cell stack consisting of 4 cells with a 225 cm2 membrane. The empirical model inputs are time, stack current, inlet reactant gases pressures and purge interval time, and the model output is stack voltage. The ANN is trained with a set of experimental data, and the trained model is then tested and validated with an independent set of data. The results reveal good agreement between the proposed black-box model and experimental data with adequate certainty. The proposed methodology can be applied to guide the controller design and fault diagnosis of the PEM fuel cell in the near future.
