Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydrogen refueling stations, in particular to a safety monitoring system for liquid hydrogen refueling stations. Background Art

[0002] Due to its high energy storage density, long cycle life, environmental friendliness, and high power quality, the International Energy Agency (IEA) believes that hydrogen, like oil, can be used for heat, electricity, and transportation. Hydrogen energy conversion produces only water, making it one of the optimal solutions for achieving carbon neutrality.

[0003] For hydrogen refueling stations, high-pressure hydrogen storage equipment is one of its most core components. High-pressure hydrogen storage equipment stores a large amount of high-pressure hydrogen. Once a leak occurs, it is very easy to explode and cause a safety accident.

[0004] Currently, safety monitoring at operating hydrogen refueling stations uses on-site recording of safety equipment status parameters. Paper records and manual inspections are used to verify the proper operation of each safety device. Among the various hidden dangers at hydrogen refueling stations, fire and explosion hazards caused by leaks from hydrogen TT vehicles, hydrogen refueling machines, static electricity, electrical sparks, and open flames are particularly serious.

[0005] Currently, there are three main hydrogenation design concepts in the world:

[0006] Cascade high-pressure hydrogen injection design, boost compression hydrogen injection design, and low-temperature liquid pump hydrogen injection design. However, low-temperature liquid hydrogenation and liquid boosting require less work, lower energy consumption, and do not require cooling devices. Therefore, the operating cost is much lower than that of gaseous hydrogen storage and hydrogenation stations.

[0007] In the past two years, some hydrogen refueling stations have built security video surveillance systems and business management systems. However, these systems can only meet the needs of hydrogen refueling stations for anti-theft and business data management, and do not take advantage of the characteristics of hydrogen refueling station safety monitoring to achieve safety monitoring and management of hydrogen refueling stations from the source of accidents. However, for liquid hydrogen refueling stations, there is a lack of real-time and comprehensive monitoring of the operating status of equipment such as hydrogen storage tanks, pumps, and hydrogen refueling machines, making it impossible to achieve centralized, intelligent and reliable monitoring of the overall operating status of the hydrogen refueling station.
