Abstract:

A long-term and short-term memory neural network (LSTM) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) was proposed to predict the life of PEMFC. First, the degradation mechanism of PEMFC was analyzed. Then, the voltage degradation prediction model was established by using LSTM neural network and the Dropout layer was used to prevent overfitting to improve the generalization ability of the model. In addition, PSO was used to optimize the learning rate and Dropout rate in LSTM to improve the prediction effect. Finally,the actual aging data of IEEE 2014 Data Challenge Data fuel cell were used to verify. The results show that this method can accurately predict the degradation of fuel cells, and the prediction accuracy is improved by 50% compared with the traditional LSTM.

Key words: automatic control technology, degradation prediction, fuel cell, deep learning, long short-term memory(LSTM) network, particle swarm optimization(PSO)
