Abstract
Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with low emission is considered as a promising vehicular industry. To achieve higher performance, modelling of the whole PEMFC system is an essential step in designing the most efficient system. In this study, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is employed to model the 250-W PEMFC which is located in an electric bicycle. The temperature, humidity, current, hydrogen and oxygen flowrate were used as the inputs and voltage and efficiency employed as the outputs. The analyses of results determine that ANFIS is an accurate and reliable technique for predicting the PEMFC performance.
