This study demonstrates the importance of fuel cells, the various fields in which they can be used, and the possibility of considering them a clean
source of energy to supply the electric car with the needed energy to operate its electric motor, after being linked with an electric driving system, to control and regulate the electrical output obtained from the fuel cells stack that is used in supplying the electric motor in the electric car, after which the mathematical relations regulating the fuel cell which specifies its modeling process are demonstrated and the general computer model of the electrical command and control circuit is established through which the response of the fuel cell stack simulator is supposedly used in the designed electric car, and all its operational and design determinants have been mentioned. Then, the response of the fuel cell stack will be simulated and graphic curves that show its performance for different working cases and varying loads that simulate the operating conditions of the car through its actual investment.
