摘要:
The invention relates to a device (10) for storing compressed gas, especially hydrogen. Said device (10) is provided with a closed reservoir (11) which has at least an inlet and an outlet (14) for the compressed gas and which has a gas flow control system (50) in the interior (12) thereof. Said gas flow control system (50) is connected to the inlet and outlet (14) for the compressed gas. A solid filling (60) is provided for storing the compressed gas. The aim of the invention is to guarantee storage capacity which is as specific as possible and to preferably use said device as tank system for a fuel cell. To this end, the solid filling (60) is a filling of carbon nanostructures which are connected to form greater conglomerates (61). At least one device (20) for measuring the level of the compressed gas in the reservoir (11) is provided. In a preferred embodiment, said device (20) can be designed as measuring device for measuring the nuclear magnetic resonance or as measuring device (21) for measuring the mass flows of the compressed gas. A temperature sensor (16) and a heating/cooling device (40) are also provided in order to adjust a defined temperature in the reservoir (11). Said heating/cooling device (40) consists of an inlet connection piece (41) and an outlet connection piece (42) for a heating/cooling medium and a cooling channel (43) that is connected to the connection pieces (41; 42).
摘要:
Disclosed is a device (20) for measuring the level of a medium, e.g. hydrogen, in a storage container (11) pertaining to a storage device (10), e.g. a tank system. The device (20) is configured as a measuring device that measures the nuclear magnetic resonance of the medium contained in the storage container (11) in order to provide a simple and direct way of determining the level of the storage container (11) in a precise manner even when an unknown amount of medium has been discharged or irrespective of uncontrollable losses. The device (20) has a measuring head (21) with, for instance, a permanent magnet (23) and a measuring coil (22) which are used to generate a static magnetic field and an electromagnetic alternating field in the measuring head (21). The electromagnetic alternating field is generated in a transmitter (24) that is connected to the measuring head (21) by means of a bridge circuit (25). The stored medium nuclear magnetic resonance values measured by the measuring head (21) are processed via the bridge circuit (25) and an amplifier (26) in a display device and are displayed. A corresponding storage device (10) and a suitable method of measurement are also described.
摘要:
The invention relates to a gas accumulator for storing pressure gases, in particular gaseous fuels such as hydrogen or similar. Said gas accumulator has a sealed holder, comprising a valve-actuated feed and withdrawal pipe for the pressure gas, and a solid filling of carbon nanostructures. The invention seeks to considerably increase the storage capacity of the gas accumulator. To this end, the particles of the carbon nanostructures are compressed to form larger, coherent conglomerates with increased apparent density in relation to the apparent density of the originally incoherent particles. This compression results, for example, from an ordering of the orientation of the carbon nanostructures, or from the formation of the conglomerates by pressure from unordered carbon nanostructures. In either case, by minimizing the space between the individual carbon nanostructures, the quantity of carbon nanostructures which can be introduced into the holder, and thus the volume of pressure gas storable therein, can be increased.
