Dynamic modeling of a stand - alone pem fuel cell connected to adjustable speed drive

Fuel cell has a good potential as a stand-alone generation system and as energy supplied to Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) model. This is because of its low operation temperature (70°C until 90°C) and also it has a good dynamic response. In this project, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell is...
