Abstract

In this paper comprehensive dynamic modeling of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell has been developed which can be used for
transient and dynamic stability studies. Hybrid Electric Vehicles Powered by fuel cell are being used by many automobile
companies as the offer reduced emission and improve fuel economy. The key technology for such development of fuel cell for
propulsion is the power electronics. Mathematical Modeling has been done and Nernst Equation is obtained for temperature
1273ºC, represent physic-chemical processes occurring in SOFC This is one of the benefit of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell. Fuel
cells operate at low voltages and hence fuel cells need to be boosted and inverted in order to connect to the utility grid. The
model is built in MATLAB/SIMULINK
