Abstract
The substitution of fossil fuels with renewable energy sources such as hydrogen is a decisive factor in making aviation environmentally compatible. A key parameter for the use of hydrogen is the storage system. In the design of a flight-capable storage system, not only the mass but especially the volume of the hydrogen has to be considered. Therefore, in this paper different techniques are compared and evaluated from the point of view of their application in aircraft design. The analyses are performed on two reference aircraft, the Airbus A320 and the Embraer E 190, in the short- and medium-haul range. Simplified, it is assumed that the respective max. Take-off mass (MTOM) remains constant. The change of the necessary periphery has no influence on the MTOM. A tank concept could be designed, which can find applications in today's conventional aircraft design.
