Abstract

The hybridization of energy storage systems consisting of fuel cells, batteries, and ultracapacitors has tremendous potential in fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles. However, the utilization of ultracapacitors in existing energy management strategies is insufficient, preventing complete exploitation of the energy storage system's benefits. To strengthen the utilization of ultracapacitors, this paper proposes an energy management strategy for fuel cell vehicles with three energy sources, considering the ideal state of charge (SOC) of ultracapacitors. The proposed method disassembles the motor power demand, with the ultracapacitor primarily supplying the acceleration portion. It calculates the ideal SOC of the ultracapacitor, and controlling the actual SOC of the ultracapacitor to match the ideal SOC. Furthermore, a fuzzy logic controller is designed to modify the fuel cell's output power, reducing power fluctuation. Additionally, according to the variation of the SOC of the battery, the fuel cell output power is modified to enhance the overall performance of the composite energy storage system. Simulation and hardware-in-loop results demonstrate that, compared to the adaptive filtering strategy with fuel cell power constraints and dynamic programming strategy, the strategy proposed in this paper reduces operational costs by 14.56 % and 4.99 %, respectively.
