Control for the Fuel and Oxygen Flows of the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell by two Types of Fuzzy Adap􀆟ve PID

Abstract

This study aims to enhance performance of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) by precisely controlling fuel and oxygen flow using two types of fuzzy adaptive PID controllers: Type- 1 and Type-2. dynamic model of SOFC was developed and traditional PID controller was combined with both fuzzy logic types. Type-2 fuzzy controller showed superior capability in handling uncertainty and noise compared to Type-1, albeit at cost of higher computational complexity. Simulation results revealed that fuzzy adaptive control especially using Type-2 logic greatly improves system response time, eliminates overshoot and enhances dynamic stability. Optimization techniques like Anti-Windup and differential forward algorithms were also applied to improve robustness. These findings contribute to advancing reliable and efficient SOFC systems for real-world applications.
