The MCC500 was developed at IPEN (Nuclear and Energy Research Institute) and the company Electrocell, using only Brazilian technology. Mathematical developments and modeling have been performed, relying on experimental data collected at IPEN laboratory. The first step was to prepare an electrical system (pre-design) for the proposed model, which included the MCC500 parameters, like: membrane ohmic resistance, activation resistance, electric double layer capacitance, open circuit potential, as well as DC-DC converter parameters, like: inductor and transistor switching frequency. Using the obtained parameters and a linear differential equation system with some mathematical manipulations, an electrical system model was determined. Simulations experiments demonstrated that the system was very stable. This toll contribution showed to be very important to generate useful potential for practical purposes, increasing the overall system electrical efficiency.openAccessfuel cellsmathematical modelsproton exchange membrane fuel cellsenergy efficiencyTexto completo de eventohttps://orcid.org/0000-0003-0105-6519
