HYDROGEN FILLING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18315277 titled 'HYDROGEN FILLING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for filling a tank with hydrogen. The method involves attaching a filling tank to a filling device and controlling the hydrogen filling process from the filling device to the tank based on a temperature sensor located in a dummy tank.
- The method involves attaching a filling tank to a filling device.
- The hydrogen filling process is controlled based on a temperature sensor in a dummy tank.
Potential Applications:
- This technology can be used in hydrogen fueling stations to efficiently fill hydrogen tanks in vehicles.
- It can be applied in industries that require hydrogen storage and transportation, such as chemical manufacturing and power generation.
Problems Solved:
- The method solves the problem of accurately controlling the hydrogen filling process by using a temperature sensor in a dummy tank.
- It ensures safe and efficient filling of hydrogen tanks by monitoring and adjusting the filling process based on temperature measurements.
Benefits:
- The method allows for precise control of the hydrogen filling process, ensuring optimal filling without overfilling or underfilling the tank.
- It enhances safety by using a temperature sensor to monitor the filling process and prevent potential hazards.
- The technology improves efficiency by automating the filling process, reducing the need for manual intervention and minimizing human error.
