✦ Synopsis


a b s t r a c t

Reversible high-pressure metal hydrides offer excellent cold start capability and potentially increased hydrogen storage capacity. However, efficient thermal management is a critical issue in this kind of systems. In the present work, hydriding and dehydriding tests have been conducted with 100 g of Ti 1.1 MnCr metal hydride at pressures up to 330 bar. Thermal characteristics of the Ti 1.1 MnCr system have been quantified from the experimental data and simulated using a basic numerical model. By varying the coolant flow rates, a hydrogen filling time of 12 min has been achieved.

Covalent metal hydrides are compounds of hydrogen and non-metals. Here, atoms of similar electronegativities share electron pairs. In general, covalent hydrides have low melting and boiling points. Because of the weak van der Waals forces between 4.4 Intermetallic Compounds j89
