Honey Badger Optimizer For Extracting The Ungiven Parameters Of Pemfc Model: Steady-State Assessment, Hossam Ashraf, Sameh Osama Abdellatif Dr, Mahmoud Elkoly Dr, Attia Elfergany Prof

Electrical Engineering

In this work, a novel attempt is performed to optimally identify the seven ungiven parameters of the proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) steady-state model. A fitness function is adapted to reduce the sum of quadratic errors (SQEs) between the experimentally measured voltages and the corresponding computed values. A honey badger optimizer (HBO) is utilized to minimize the SQEs, exposed to a group of inequality bounds. Three test cases of well-known commercial PEMFCs units as benchmarking are elucidated and discussed over different steady-state operating conditions. Substantial comparisons to the other up-to-date optimizers published in the art-of-literature are provided to appraise …
