A refrigeration systems diagnoses its pressure sensors by turning the system off, determining whether the pressure sensors on the high-pressure-side and on the low-pressure-side of a refrigeration circuit detect unvarying pressures, and comparing the pressure values detected by a high pressure sensor and a low pressure sensor with each other. The high pressure sensor or the low pressure sensor is regarded as defective when the difference between the two pressures detected falls outside a tolerance range. In one embodiment an analyzer compares the pressures to produce a signal indicating failure when the pressure difference falls outside the tolerance range.

An economical metallic material for absorption and desorption of hydrogen comprising an alloy having the general formula represented by AB.sub.x, wherein A is Ca or a metallic material which is an alloy including Ca, B is Ni or a metallic material which is an alloy including Ni, and x is in the range of 3.8-6.3, and exhibiting a hydrogen dissociation equilibrium pressure (or plateau pressure, pressure of the plateau region of hydrogen dissociation pressure-hydride composition isotherm) below 1 atm at normal temperatures.The material of the invention very easily absorbs large amounts of hydrogen and efficiently releases it at other predetermined temperatures, pressure and electrochemical conditions, whereby it is able to store hydrogen safely, usefully and economically. It is also suitable for use especially as media for thermal energy storage such as solar energy, waste heat from the electric power generators, and iron foundries, as the alloy of this invention has a plateau pressure below 1 atm at room temperature and of several atmospheres at 35.degree.-100.degree. C.
摘要:
There is described an alloy metal hydride for storing and releasing hydrogen at predetermined temperatures and pressures intended for storing and transporting said hydrogen and also for use as a hydrogen supply source of a fuel cell and fuel electrode. The alloy of this invention consists of 30 to 80 percent by weight Ti and 20 to 70 percent by weight Mn having a high dissociation pressure, easy hydrogen activation, low heat of formation of hydrides and a very fast rate of absorption and desorption, also the alloy is of light weight and of low cost, therefore being of great industrial use.
摘要:
The present invention relates a method of making a hydrogen storage alloy comprising the steps of: preparing an alloy having, as main elements, 37 to 42 atomic percent of titanium and 58 to 63 atomic percent of manganese, which alloy is produced directly in an argon arc furnace or an induction furnace; heating the prepared alloy in an electric furnace at a high temperature below the melting temperature of the alloy under vacuum or an inert atmosphere; and cooling the heated alloy down to room temperature. The method of the present invention allows the alloy to have a homogeneous single phase, thereby providing an alloy with excellent hydrogen storage characteristics.
