Abstract :
Fuel cell converters have to control a constant output voltage under condition of variable input voltage. The dynamic load cycle should be reduced to increase lifetime. Both tasks can be solved by a hybrid system converter, consisting of three DC connected controlled DC-DC converter modules for fuel cell, buffer and load
