| Popis: | 100 This study designed and developed a type of vehicle incorporating a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). The vehicle has a three-wheel design, where the two front wheels are for steering and one rear wheel is for drive. The vehicle frame is made of aluminum alloy 6061. It is powered by fuel cell, which drives the DC brushless motor. The hydrogen-storage device of the vehicle is a 500L hydrogen-storage alloy cylinder. This study implemented three power supply methods for the motor: 1) lead-acid storage battery; 2) PEMFC electric pile for the motor, and lead-acid storage battery for other use; 3) hybrid power supply of PEMFC electric pile and lead-acid storage battery. The experiment of this study was conducted in two parts: 1) power components testing, including the lead-acid storage battery discharge testing, PEMFC electric pile characteristic analysis, and inspection, and hydrogen-storage cylinder testing; 2) the overall system testing of the vehicle, including platform and vehicle testing. The platform testing includes DC power conversion efficiency analysis and testing of the applications of the overall systems of the vehicle during simulation of the three power-supply methods. Vehicle testing focused on the overall systems of the vehicle, using the three power-supply methods. The results showed that, under the same power conditions of 150W, the endurance was increased by 11.42% for the hybrid power supply, as compared with using lead-acid storage battery alone. However, the driving distance was reduced by 2.3%. When using PEMFC as the power supply, the endurance could by increased by 71.7%, and the driving distance was increased by 31.0%, as compared with using the lead-acid storage battery alone. |
