Abstract

Energy management strategies applied to hybrid vehicles powered by fuel cells and batteries plays a crucial role. A comparative study of fuel consumption according to different drive cycles is to be implemented. As the drive cycles give the data to implement the work in simulation. This paper is to present optimal fuel consumed by using Equivalent Consumption Minimization Strategy (ECMS) and to compare which of the driving cycles enhance the driving capability of the system. The strategy used here can be implemented practically. We can prepare a sustainable hybrid car by proper integration of fuel cell along with batteries and control system implementing energy management strategy.
