APPLYING AN INTELLIGENT PARAMETER DESIGN COMBINED WITH TAGUCHI METHOD ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MULTI-OBJECTIVE OF A PEM FUEL CELL STACK
應用田口法與智慧型參數設計於PEM燃料電池堆多品質性能研究
摘要
This paper presents an approach of the intelligent-robust parameter design to improve the performance of a PEM fuel cell stack with multi-objective cases. Firstly, a screen experiment has to be carried out by using a fractional factorial design; then the Taguchi multi-quality method can be conducted to predict the discrete model; the principal component analysis (PCA) can then be performed on the multi-objectives. The intelligent parameter design is developed via the definition of the percentage reduction of quality loss (PRQL) combined with the S/N ratio models that can be performed by a Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN), in order to supply a fitness function to the Monte Carlo method. Finally, the prediction model created by this approach can be verified through a confirmation experiment. In this work, a combined approach is employed to determine the optimal combination of five operating parameters that include the temperature of a fuel cell, the anode and cathode humidification temperatures, the stoichiometric flow ratios of the reaction gas etc. for a PEM fuel cell stack. The results indicate that the intelligent parameter design via the average PRQL was improved by 32.35%. However, the Taguchi method and the PCA were improved by 32.03% and 31.61%, respectively.
