An Overview of Power Electronics Applications in Fuel Cell Systems: DC and AC Converters

Abstract: Power electronics and fuel cell technologies play an important role in the field of renewable energy. The demand for fuel cells will increase as fuel cells become the main power source for portable applications. In this application, a high-efficiency converter is an essential requirement and a key parameter of the overall system. This is because the size, cost, efficiency, and reliability of the overall system for portable applications primarily depend on the converter. Therefore, the selection of an appropria… Show more

“…The main goal of using these converters in PV systems is to maintain the output DC voltage from the PV panels at certain values and reduce the effect of any disturbance signal . Several DC‐DC converter topologies, including buck, boost, buck‐boost, Cuk, SEPIC, and flyback converter, meet the specific demands of DC load, as shown in Figures . These topologies can function as switching mode regulators to control and convert the DC output to a suitable utilization voltage.…”

“…To reduce the THD generated at these two components, different controlling strategies and connection topologies have been presented. For the DC‐DC converter, the currently used topologies are buck, boost, buck‐boost, Cuk, single‐ended primary‐inductor converter (SEPIC), and flyback converter . These topologies can function as switching mode regulators to control and convert the DC output to a suitable voltage, which depends heavily on the switching frequency of the pulse width modulation (PWM) control signal .…”

“…More economic and environment friendly source is renewable energy source which refers to clean and sustainable energy source suppressing the bad effects generated by conventional sources of fossil fuel [1]. As a pollution and poisonous free, the solar energy considered as one of the big renewable energy sources plays a vital role in power demand [2].…”

“…Fuel cell is an electrochemical conversion device that combines Hydrogen and Oxygen to form water and releases an electron which is captured and made to circulate in an external electrical circuit; this generates electricity if the process runs continuously. A fuel cell system can be used in any application with the right selection of power electronics circuits (Ali et al, 2014). The continuous supply and storage of Hydrogen and Oxygen becomes the only barrier in the development of the fuel cell based devices (Dimitris and Maria, 2016).…”
