Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A tank intended for the storage of hydrogen by absorption into material, including a first part and a second part, each of the first and second parts including a barrel, closed at one first longitudinal end by a substantially hemispherical part, the two parts being joined by the second open longitudinal end of the barrel by an assembly plate, the above-mentioned tank including two heat exchangers, each being contained in one of the two parts and intended to be under the same hydrogen pressure, the above mentioned tank also having apparatus of supply and evacuation of heat transfer medium circulating in the above mentioned heat exchangers integrated in the assembly plate, and apparatus of supply and collection of hydrogen.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A tank for storing hydrogen in the form of hydride, the tank comprising: a longitudinal axis (X); an assembly plate; a liner formed of a first part positioned on a first side of the assembly plate and a second part positioned on a second side of the assembly plate, the second side being longitudinally opposite the first side; two heat exchangers, wherein a first of the two heat exchangers is contained in one of the first and second parts and the…
