초록

This study analyzes pressure distribution and pressure drop in the receptacle used in charging system of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. The objective is to minimize receptacle-induced pressure drop by redesigning internal flow channels. Through numerical simulations, three receptacle variants are compared with a baseline case. Results show reduced pressure drop in the filter section. However, the check valve section exhibits higher pressure drop, requiring further improvement. By increasing throat diameter, pressure drop is decreased by 28% between inlet and outlet of the receptacle. This study shows the relationship between dynamic pressure and pressure drop, providing a guideline for receptacle performance optimization. The redesigned receptacle offers potential for enhancing hydrogen charging efficiency.
