Abstract For predicting the voltage and temperature dynamics synchronously and designing a controller, a control-oriented dynamic modeling study of the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) derived from physical conservation laws is reported, which considers both the electrochemical and thermal aspects of the SOFC. Here, the least squares support vector regression (LSSVR) is employed to model the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the SOFC. In addition, a genetic algorithm (GA), through comparing a simulated annealing algorithm (SAA) with a 5-fold cross-validation (5FCV) method, is preferably chosen to optimize the LSSVR’s parameters. The validity of the proposed LSSVR with GA (GA-LSSVR) model is verified by comparing the results with those obtained from the physical model. Simulation studies further indicate that the GA-LSSVR model has a higher modeling accuracy than the LSSVR with SAA (SAA-LSSVR) and the LSSVR with 5FCV (5FCV-LSSVR) models in predicting the voltage and temperature transient behaviors of the SOFC. Furthermore, the convergence speed of the GA-LSSVR model is relatively fast. The availability of this GA-LSSVR identification model can aid in evaluating the dynamic performance of the SOFC under different conditions and can be used for designing valid multivariable control schemes.
