The circumferential velocities of gas were measured with a five-hole Pitot probe.The pressure drop decreased rapidly when the liquid was introduced to the rotor,because the circumferential velocity of the liquid droplets was lower than that of the gas,reducing the circumferential velocity of gas and the centrifugal pressure drop.The power consumption decreased first when the gas entered the RZB rotor,because the gas with higher circumferential velocity facilitates the rotation of baffles.展开更多

Differenttypes of materials are used for constructing these hydrogen pressure vessels. An aluminum lined vessel and typicallycarbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) materials are commercially used in hydrogen vessels. An aluminumlined vessel is easy to construct and posses high thermal conductivity compared to other commercially availablevessels. However, compared to CFRP lined vessel, it has low strength capacity and safety factors. Therefore,nowadays, CFRP lined vessels are becoming more popular in hydrogen vehicles. Moreover, CFRP lined vesselhas an advantage of light weight. CFRP, although, has many desirable properties in reducing the weight and inincreasing the strength, it is also necessary to keep the material temperature below 85 ℃ for maintaining stringentsafety requirements. While filling process occurs, the temperature can be exceeded due to the compression worksof the gas flow. Therefore, it is very important to optimize the hydrogen filling system to avoid the crossing of thecritical limit of the temperature rise. Computer-aided simulation has been conducted to characterize the hydrogenfilling to optimize the technique. Three types of hydrogen vessels with different volumes have been analyzed foroptimizing the charging characteristics of hydrogen to test vessels. Gas temperatures are measured inside representativevessels in the supply reservoirs (H2 storages) and at the inlet to the test tank during filling.展开更多
