Dynamic control of fuel cell powered water pumping station

An efficient renewable green energy system consisting a hydrogen PEM-fuel cell as an energy sources is simulated and studied in this paper. The proposed green scheme has four separate key components. The first is the green power generation source. The second is the interfacing DC-DC converter used to connect green power generator fuel cell to the load bus. The third is a common DC interface-bus where the generated energy is collected in a DC form. The fourth comprises all interfacing error driven controllers and novel modulated green plug power filter (GPPF) used to reduce ripple variations and stabilize the common DC-Bus voltage. In this paper, the novel multi-loop error driven dynamic controller scheme is implemented for speed control of the PMDC motor. This multi-loop controller comprises three basic loops, the main supplementary dynamic momentum loop to ensure fast dynamic and minimum current and torque ripple content. The proposed fuel cell generation scheme provides efficient and optimum dynamic operation to enhance system performance and secure energy supply. The proposed integrated hybrid system with all subsystems has been simulated using the Matlab Simulink/Sim-Power software environment and validated for voltage stabilization, efficient utilizations and enhanced power quality under different operating conditions, sudden load excursions, despite the non-linear volt-ampere characteristic of the fuel cell DC generator source..
