Abstract

Securing energy sources is a key element essential to economic and industrial development in modern society, and research on renewable energy and hydrogen energy is now actively carried out. This research was conducted through experiments and analytical methods on the hydrogen filling process in the hydrogen storage tank of the hydrogen charging station. When low-temperature, high-pressure hydrogen was injected into a high-pressure tanks where hydrogen is charged, the theoretical method was used to analyze the changes in temperature and pressure inside the high-pressure tanks, the amount of hydrogen charge, and the charging time. The analysis was conducted in the initial vacuum state, called the First Cycle, and when the residual pressure was present inside the tanks, called the Second Cycle. As a result of the analysis, the highest temperature inside the tanks in the First Cycle of the high-pressure tank increased to 442.11 K, the temperature measured through the experiment was 441.77 K, the Second Cycle increased to 397.12 K, and the temperature measured through the experiment was 398 K. The results obtained through experimentation and analysis differ within ±1%. The results of this study will be useful for future hydrogen energy research and hydrogen charging station.
