Abstract: A device for connection of double-wall pipes including an interior connection system connecting the first and second interior pipes and an exterior connection system including a first part that cooperates with an end section of the first exterior pipe and a second part that cooperates with an end section of the second exterior pipe. The exterior connection system is configured so that at a first temperature at least one of the first and second parts exerts a contact force on the end section of the corresponding first or second exterior pipe greater than at a second temperature higher than the first temperature.

Abstract: A hydrogen storage system comprises a hydrogen tank and a system for controlling hydrogen evaporation in the hydrogen tank. This control system comprises a hydrogen discharge pipe connected to the hydrogen tank, on the one hand, and to a controllable valve, on the other hand, as well as a processing unit configured to control the valve as a function of the pressure in the tank. The hydrogen storage system further comprises a fuel cell permanently connected to the hydrogen tank and the processing unit being electrically powered by the fuel cell.

Abstract: An apparatus contains a dihydrogen tank and/or a dihydrogen circuit, and a device for regulating a concentration of dihydrogen located outside the tank and/or the circuit. The device includes at least one pair of electrical conductors including a first electrical conductor supplied with a first voltage and a second electrical conductor supplied with a second voltage which is different from the first voltage. At least one controller repeatedly commands the application of a predetermined voltage difference between the first electrical conductor and the second electrical conductor so that an electric arc of controlled power is formed in order to burn dihydrogen possibly coming from the tank and/or from the circuit. Thus, dihydrogen does not accumulate in undesired places in the apparatus.
