Abstract

In consideration of the characteristics of the thermal management system for proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), including nonlinearity, strong coupling, and significant time delay, this study proposes a BP neural network PID control method (BP-PID) optimized by the bald eagle search algorithm (BES). This approach addresses the problenis of the conventional BP-PID method, such as slow learning rate and susceptibility to local optima, thereby enabling rapid adjustment of the fuel cell under varying operating conditions and reducing temperature fluctuations. A comparative analysis of four control methods—fuzzy PID, BP-PID, PSO-BP-PID, and BES-BP-PID—reveals the superior performance of the proposed BES-BP-PID method. Specifically, compared to BP-PID, BES-BP-PID reduces overshoot by 15.6% and decreases settling time by 29 seconds. Furthermore, when benchmarked against PSO-BP-PID, it achieves a lower root mean square error (RMSE) and smoother temperature transients.
