Research on Modeling and Simulation of Fuel Cell Bus Power System Based on Forward-Backward energy flow balance method

The modeling and simulation research of fuel cell buses’ power system is an important part of accelerating the process of industrialization. This paper firstly analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of different topologies of power systems to determine the optimal configuration, then conducts the parameter matching study of the power system, derives and determines the main vehicle dynamics parameters and the total power demand of the power system, and further completes the parameter matching of the drive motor, gear ratio and power supply, as well as the design of the fuel cell stack. On the Matlab/Simulink platform, the forward-backward energy flow balance method is used to establish a fuel cell power system model divided into power calculation modules and power shunt modules. Finally, model simulation and comparative analysis was car-ried out. The simulation results of the power system model in this paper were compared with the data of the 2010 World Expo FCB real-vehicle test. The result shows that the simulation results of the dynamic system is in good agreement with the real vehicle data. The power system model conforms to the actual situation, has feasibility and high engineering value.
