Abstract: A fuel cell system model with detailed cooling module model was developed to evaluate the control algorithms of cooling module which is used for the thermal management of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system. The system model is composed of a dynamic fuel cell stack model and a detailed dynamic cooling module model. To extend modeling flexibility, the fuel cell stack model utilizes analytic approach to capture the transient behavior of the stack temperature corresponding to the change of the coolant temperature and the flow rate during load follow-up. The cooling module model integrated model of fan, water pump, coolant passage, and electric motors so that the model is capable of investigation of operating strategy of pump and fan.
