D141 Influence to the Temperature Increase of Hydrogen by Shape of Vessel in Vehicle during Filling of Hydrogen

Abstract

Recently, CO_2 emitted by motor vehicles are getting worse the global warming. Therefore, a lot of studies are being conducted all over the world for developing the FCV(Fuel Cell Vehicle). In this study, we focus on an effect of a tank shape on a temperature of hydrogen in a tank during refueling of hydrogen. Thence, we clarified how the ratio of volume to surface area in a vessel contributes the temperature rise in the hydrogen in a tank during filling of hydrogen based a proposed refueling model which is commonly accepted to build SAE protocol.
