Scope |
The purpose of this SAE Information Report is to provide an
overview of special requirements and practices in fuel cell vehicle thermal
management. This document is primarily directed to fuel cell applications in
motor vehicles. Rationale: Fuel cells (FCs) have been used in
vehicles with special air quality needs, such as warehouse forklifts, and in
space applications. For general transportation, fuel cell vehicles (FCVs)
offer the following advantages: As the most abundant element on earth,
hydrogen can be generated from a variety of sources, including natural gas,
nuclear, coal, and renewable sources (e.g., solar, wind, biomass, hydro, and
geothermal). Ultra-low to zero tailpipe emissions. Good ride experiences
including smooth and quiet operation of electrical motors and good
acceleration. Longer ranges, comparable to vehicles with internal combustion
engines (ICEs). Shorter fueling times, in minutes, comparable to vehicles
with ICEs. A good backup electrical power supply in case of an emergency. As
of February 1, 2019, about 3000 FCVs and 6000 FCVs had been sold and leased
in Japan and U.S., respectively [1]. Chinese OEMs produced 629, 1272, 1527,
and 3000 commercial FCVs in 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively [2, 3,
4]. More FCVs of various kinds are being developed worldwide. A good
reference is needed for the industry to understand the special requirements
and practices in fuel cell vehicle thermal management |
