Abstract
Cryo-compressed hydrogen vessels for automotive application were simulated by means of the GASFLOW Simulation Code by using real gas equations of state for hydrogen based on Leachman’s NIST model and a modified van der Waals Model. The hydrogen tank systems here considered are those based on hydrogen storage concepts developed by the Bayerische Motoren Werke (BMW) Group and produced by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and the Structural Composite Industries (SCI). In order to validate the GASFLOW simulations, the data and the simulation results provided in the frame of the HySIM project were used. The GASFLOW simulations show good agreement with data as well as with the HySIM simulations. The two real gas equations of state, Leachman’s NIST and modified van de Waals used in this study produced nearly identical results.
