Abstract

Composite tanks for on-board gaseous hydrogen storage is one of key parts of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. Regulations, codes and standards (RC & S) are conducive to overcoming technological barriers to commercialization. This paper reviews the development of RC & S on composite tanks for on-board gaseous hydrogen storage and addresses their highlights on technical requirements. First, an overview of RC & S for composite tanks is introduced. Then, a comparative study on technical requirements of RC & S including service conditions, design requirements, materials, manufacture, qualification tests and management is presented. Finally, several major differences in RC & S, i.e., tank classification in ISO 19881 and penetration test method are discussed. Some issues for further research, such as initial burst pressure, material hydrogen compatibility and periodic inspection methods are proposed.
