Abstract

This paper explores the potential of hydrogen as an energy carrier for deep-sea applications. Finite element analysis of a type III pressurised cylinder to the intended working pressures of 300 bar internal and up to 600 bar external were carried out for different designs and safety factors. Design parameters such as helical angle, liner, helical, and hoop thicknesses were studied and optimised. A buckling analysis was carried out for the optimised designs and recommendations to increase the maximum allowable external pressure are given.
