Dynamic simulation for optimal hydrogen refueling method to Fuel Cell Vehicle tanks
Torato Kuroki,Naoya Sakoda,Naoya Sakoda,Kanei Shinzato,Masanori Monde,Yasuyuki Takata,Yasuyuki Takata +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic simulation approach to investigate an optimal hydrogen refueling method is proposed, which simulates a transient temperature, pressure and mass flow rate of hydrogen flowing inside filling equipment in an actual station during the refueling process to an Fuel Cell Vehicle (FCV) tank.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of transient temperature of hydrogen flowing from pre-cooler of refueling station to inlet of vehicle tank
Torato Kuroki,Naoya Sakoda,Naoya Sakoda,Kanei Shinzato,Masanori Monde,Yasuyuki Takata,Yasuyuki Takata +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic analytical approach is proposed to obtain the transient temperature rise of hydrogen when pre-cooled hydrogen is heated through filling equipment at a refueling station, where the filling equipment is assumed to be a simple and straight pipeline, and the heat balance based on the thermodynamics for hydrogen flowing in the pipeline is analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical analysis of rapid solidification in a single roller process
TL;DR: In this article, a numerical analysis has been performed on the rapid solidification in a single roller cooling process using the volume of fluid (VOF) method, which was adopted as the numerical method used to simulate transient two-dimensional thermal and fluid flow with a liquid-solid phase change and free surfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transient temperature and pressure behavior of high-pressure 100 MPa hydrogen during discharge through orifices

TL;DR: In this paper, the transient temperature and pressure behavior of the hydrogen in a vessel is presented, and the authors adopt the effective diameters of the orifices instead of the actual diameters, and from comparisons with the experimental pressure, they estimate them to be 0.6 and 0.9 of the usual diameters.
