Optimal parameter identification for the proton exchange membrane fuel cell using Satin Bowerbird optimizer
This study proposes precise modeling for the proton exchange membrane fuel cells which present desirable advantages compared with other energy management systems. The presented model can be applied for the simulation of the actual behavior of the proton exchange membrane fuel cells such as the electrical, electrochemical, and mechanical. In the present literature, a newly presented optimizer namely Satin Bowerbird is implemented for the evaluation of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell performance criteria. The Satin Bowerbird optimizer is an evolutionary algorithm that imitates the mating process of the Bowerbirds in the mating season. The Satin Bowerbird optimizer is applied to the different commercial benchmark of proton exchange membrane fuel cell stack to assess the performance of the proposed algorithm. The statistical study is also carried out to show the superiority of the proposed method compared with other schemes. The standard deviation for the Satin Bowerbird optimizer is obtained 0.0941 which is the lowest value amongst the other well-known approaches. Also, the lowest sum of squared error is calculated for the proposed algorithm. Moreover, the validation of the presented method is done with the experimental data which shows good agreement between the experimental and modeling data.
