Abstract
BACKGROUND: In the context of the growing demand for environmentally friendly and efficient energy sources, hydrogen has proven to be a high energy density carrier with essentially zero CO2 emissions. For the steadily developing sector of heavy mobility powered by hydrogen fuel, the issue of safe and high-density hydrogen storage is of significant importance.
AIM: Theoretical feasibility analysis of fas cryo-compressed hydrogen refueling technology for mining vehicles.
METHODS: CFD modeling of heat influx to the replacement cartridge with cryo-compressed hydrogen has been conducted. The gaseous hydrogen compression cycle followed by cooling to 85 K was simulated in the ASPEN HYSYS software environment.
RESULTS: The authors evaluated the specific costs of the cycle and concluded on the energy efficiency of this storage method in relation to known and tested hydrogen fuel storage methods, including on-board systems.
CONCLUSION: The study allows to conclude that cryo-compressed refueling systems with replacement cartridges for mining vehicles is a promising solution. The simulation shows that this solution can be implemented and operated safely. In addition, theoretical values of Specific Energy Consumption (SEC) for this technology have been determined during the study.
