Hydrogen energy as an alternative source of energy has been receiving tremendous support around the world, and research is being actively conducted accordingly. However, most of the studies focus on hydrogen storage tanks and only are few studies on interpreting the hydrogen filling system itself. In this study, with reference to SAE J2601, a hydrogen fueling protocol, a simulation model was developed that can confirm the behavior of the vehicle's internal tank during hydrogen fueling. With respect to factors such as fuel supply temperature, ambient temperature, and pressure increase rate, the developed model can check the change of temperature and pressure in the tank and the state of hydrogen charging during hydrogen fueling. The validity of the developed simulation model was confirmed by comparing the simulation results with the experimental results presented in SAE J2601.

SAE J2601, hydrogen fueling protocols, proposes two charging methods. The first is the table-based fueling protocol, and the second is the MC formula-based fueling protocol. Among them, MC formula-based fueling protocol calculates and supplies the target pressure and pressure ramp rate (PRR) using the pre-cooling temperature of the hydrogen and the physical parameters of the tank in the vehicle. The coefficient of the MC formula for deriving MC varies depending on the physical parameters of the tank in the vehicle. However, most studies use the MC coefficient derived from SAE J2601 as it is, despite the difference in the physical parameters of the tank applied to the study and the tank used to derive the MC coefficient from SAE J2601. In this study, the MC coefficient was derived by applying the hydrogen tank currently used, and the difference with the fueling performance using the MC coefficient proposed in SAE J2601 was verified. In addition, the difference was confirmed by comparing and analyzing the fueling performance of the table-based method currently used in hydrogen fueling stations and the MC formula-based method using MC coefficient derived in this study.

수소자동차용기에 높은 압력(70 MPa)의 수소를 빨리 완전 충전하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 그 이유는 줄-톰슨효과 등에 의해 발생하는 열로 인하여 용기내의 온도가 급속히 상승하기 때문이다. 미국의 SAE J2601, 일본의 JPEC-S 0003 같은 충전프로토콜이 제정되어 운영되고 있다. 그러나 이들 프로토콜에는 수많은 가정이 도입되어 내용이 너무 복잡하고 적용범위가 제한적이라는 문제가 있다. 이 연구는 완벽한 실시간 통신에 기반한 새로운 프로토콜을 개발하기 위해서 수행되었다. 이 연구에서는 수소충전 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 이용하여 압력상승률이 자동차용기내의 온도 및 압력 상승과 충전유속에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 살펴보았다. 그 결과 압력상승률 결정 시 우선 고려하여야 할 매개변수는 자동차 용기의 온도라는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Numerical simulation of the natural gas steam reforming process for on-site hydrogen production in a $H_2$ fueling station was conducted on the basis of process material and heat balances. The effects of reforming parameters on the process efficiency of hydrogen production were investigated, and set-point values of each of the parameters to minimize the sizes of unit process equipments and to secure a stable operability of the reforming process were suggested. S/C ratio of the reforming reactants was found to be a crucial parameter in the reforming process mostly governing both the hydrogen production efficiency and the stable operability of the process. The operation of the process was regarded to be stable if the feed water(WR) as a reforming reactant could evaporate completely to dry steam through HRSG. The optimum S/C ratio was 3.0 where the process efficiency of hydrogen production was maximized and the stable operability of the process was secured. The optimum feed rates of natural gas(NGR) and WR as reforming reactants and natural gas(NGB) as a burner fuel were also determined for the hydrogen production rate of $27\;Nm^3/h$.

It is not easy to refuel quickly and safely with 70 MPa hydrogen. This is because the temperature in the vehicle tank rises sharply due to Joule-Thomson effect, etc. Thus protocols such as SAE J2601 in the United States and JPEC-S 0003 in Japan were established. However, they have the problem of over-complexity and lack of versatility by setting the preconditions for hot and cold cases and introducing a number of look-up tables. This study was conducted with the ultimate goal of developing new protocols based on complete real-time communication. Thermodynamic models were made and programs were developed for hydrogen refueling simulations. Simulation results confirmed that there are five parameters in the influencing factors of the hydrogen refueling protocol.

As the development of hydrogen vehicles has accelerated in recent years, it is necessary to develop a storage tank for hydrogen fueling stations capable of high-pressure charging, and for this purpose, a new system with a compressor-embedded refueling tank is required. In this study, the parametric study of shape design based on strength performance evaluation was carried out to find the optimal shape design of bellows, the core component of compressor-embedded refueling tank for a newly developed hydrogen refueling station capable of high-pressure charging above 1,000 bar. The design factors for parametric study were contour shape and radius of bellows, and the performance factors were the maximum stress and the gap distance in the contact direction. In the shape design of the compressor bellows for hydrogen refueling station considered in this study, it was found that adjusting the contour radius is an appropriate design method to improve the compression performance and structural safety.
