Performances system management: fuel cell / photovoltaic
Abstract
The fuel cell is intended to supply with the electrical energy from the primary resources. It has many advantages, notably when it is associated with a PV system. Indeed, the autonomous hybrid system presents the advantage of the important power supplied with reduced number of converters. The objective of this work presents a general study of the fuel cell system. The most components of this system are: the converter DC-DC booster –Converter DC-AC PWM– transformer and the isolated load. The different elements of the Fuel cell system are dimensioned to conceive a general model simulated with Matlab / Simulink. The obtained results show the validity and the efficiency of the model presented.
