Method of designing machine
A method of designing a machine on which a drive motor, a fuel cell stack, and a secondary battery are mounted includes: determining a maximum output of the drive motor to be a first output value and an output of the drive motor when a vehicle travels under a cruise condition to be a second output value; determining the number of fuel cell stacks to be mounted to be n; and determining a maximum output of the secondary battery to be a value obtained by subtracting a value obtained by multiplying a maximum output of the fuel cell stack by the n, from the first output value. A value obtained by multiplying the third output value by the n is equal to or larger than the second output value, and a value obtained by multiplying the third output value by (n−1) is less than the second output value.

Method of measuring impedance of fuel cell stack in vehicle
A method of measuring impedance of a fuel cell stack in a vehicle during driving of the vehicle includes: determining whether an impedance measurement of the fuel cell stack is requested during driving of the vehicle driven by power of the fuel cell stack; turning off a first relay connected between the fuel cell stack and a battery charged by the fuel cell stack when the impedance measurement of the fuel cell stack is requested; connecting a stack load to the fuel cell stack via a second relay and supplying air to the fuel cell stack; and measuring the impedance of the fuel cell stack.

Electrified military vehicle
A control system for operating a military vehicle according to different modes includes processing circuitry that receives a user input indicating a selected mode of the different modes, and operates a driveline and a front end accessory drive (FEAD) of the military vehicle according to the selected mode. The driveline of the military vehicle includes an engine and an integrated motor generator (IMG) and the FEAD includes multiple accessories and an electric motor-generator. The modes include an engine mode and an electric mode. In the engine mode, the engine drives the FEAD and drives tractive elements of the military vehicle through the IMG for transportation. In the electric mode, the engine is shut off to reduce a sound output of the military vehicle and the IMG drives the tractive elements of the military vehicle for transportation and the electric motor-generator drives the FEAD.
