Abstract

The low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen lossless filling system provided by the application mainly comprises the preparation of low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen, the precooling of a low-temperature high-pressure storage tank and the filling of the low-temperature high-pressure storage tank. The preparation process of the low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen comprises two forms, one of which uses normal-temperature gaseous hydrogen as a gas source, and the other of which uses normal-pressure liquid hydrogen as a gas source. The filling system can ensure that there is no loss of hydrogen during the preparation, precooling and filling of the low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen, improve the transportation density and filling rate, and reduce the filling energy consumption and transportation cost. In addition, the selection of key components and the design of multiple bypasses in the system ensure the stability, efficiency and safety of the operation of the low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen system and guarantee the storage quality of the low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen, which is conducive to the high-quality utilization and wide promotion of the low-temperature high-pressure hydrogen after storage and transportation.
