Abstract :
This work deals with the development of a fuel cell-battery hybrid system for auxiliary power supply for long-haul sleeper trucks. After the introduction of the special application, the theory of hybridization was briefly explained. A system model was developed to optimize hybrid system architectures for different load profiles. Finally, exemplary results were presented using the developed system model.
