Abstract
Renewable hydrogen plays a critical role in the current energy transition, and can facilitate the decarbonization and de-fossilization of hard-to-abate sectors, such as the industrial, power, transportation and buildings sectors. High pressure hydrogen valve（HPHV）is an important energy storage element for the hydrogen fueling station. Given the problems of large internal pressure fluctuation and long adjustment time of the HPHV during the operation of the current hydrogen fueling system, it is necessary to study the thermal effects of the HPHV. In the study，the pressure、temperature and velocity changes of the HPHV are studied from the aspect of numerical calculation. The hydrogen pressure and temperature changes of the model were simulated and analyzed at the different filling parameters. The accuracy of the simulation model was demonstrated by practice. The influence of the internal taper of the spool on the temperature change of 40°, 50°, 60° and 70° was studied. The influence of outlet pressure of 5 MPa, 10 MPa, 15 MPa, 20 MPa, 25 MPa on the temperature of high-pressure hydrogen valve and the influence of mass flow rate of 0.1 g/s, 0.3 g/s, 0.5 g/s, 0.8 g/s on the velocity field of hydrogen high-pressure valve. The study shows that when the taper was 60°, the optimal decompression performance, small temperature rise, and the performance was stable. The highest speed and the lowest temperature appear near the gap outlet, up to 2500 m/s and 85 K, respectively. The temperature and speed change trends were basically opposite, and the temperature change range of the outlet was 280 K–370 K. The results of this study provide great support for the research and application of ultra-high pressure hydrogen storage and hydrogen refueling, which also provide a theoretical basis for the subsequent development of the hydrogen energy industry and the wide application of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and provide ideas for realizing the goal of “dual carbon".
