A fuzzy control for a fuel cell generation system based on field programmable gate array

The fuzzy controller implemented in Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for a fuel cell generation system is presented in this paper. The fuel cell generation system which is considered for the study consists of a stack, reformer, DC-DC converter and loads. Under the demands on control in application of the converter, a fuzzy controller used to manage the power flow was presented. Paralleling fuzzy controller (FC) based on improved Generalized-Membership-Function algorithm is implemented on a Cyclone FPGA. The result of simulation based on QuartusII confirmed the validity of the proposed method.
