Abstract :
In this paper, an analytic tank to wheel model of a light-duty fuel-cell vehicle is presented. This model takes into account all the elements of the vehicle along with their interactions. It is used to optimize the velocity profile of the vehicle in order to minimize the energy consumption per kilometer.
