Problems solved by technology

[0004] The existing problems are: on the one hand, due to the poor thermal conductivity of the metal hydride powder itself (equivalent to that of glass and sandstone), it is impossible to input heat into the hydrogen storage device or output heat from the hydrogen storage device in time, so that When hydrogen is inhaled, the temperature of the hydrogen storage alloy rises sharply, and when the hydrogen is released, the temperature of the hydrogen storage alloy drops rapidly, which causes the speed of hydrogen absorption and desorption to slow or even stop; on the other hand, the fluidity of the hydrogen storage alloy fine powder is good, and the During the operation, due to the drive of the hydrogen flow, it is easy to form excessive local accumulation in the hydrogen storage device, which will cause deformation or damage to the container
Hydrogen storage alloys can still undergo reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions in such organic solvents, the heat transfer performance is improved, and the container will not swell. However, due to the addition of a large amount of organic solvents that do not absorb hydrogen, the unit weight of the hydrogen storage device and the hydrogen storage density per unit volume are greatly reduced

Background technique [0002] Hydrogen is an ideal clean fuel and an important secondary energy source in the future. At present, there are mainly three methods of hydrogen storage and transportation in practical application: hydrogen storage in high-pressure containers, hydrogen storage in liquid hydrogen storage tanks, and solid-state hydrogen storage in hydride hydrogen storage devices. The outstanding advantages of using metal hydride hydrogen storage devices to store and transport hydrogen are good safety, and the hydrogen storage density per unit weight is much higher than that of high-pressure containers and liquid hydrogen storage tanks.
