The present disclosure discloses a high-pressure gas storage and supply device. The disclosed high-pressure gas storage and supply device includes a plurality of gas storage tanks that store a high-pressure gas therein and selectively discharge the stored gas, and a gas transport pipe including tank inlet/outlet lines respectively connected to the plurality of gas storage tanks to fill the gas in the gas storage tanks or discharge the gas stored in the gas storage tanks. Thus, in the present disclosure, the gas may be filled in or discharged from the gas storage tanks by the same one tank inlet/outlet line, and thus a structure for filling or discharging the high-pressure gas can be simplified.

An underwater communication method includes creating an air column in a water body using a device including a device body, an air column-generating component, and a transceiver, thereby forming an air column to a surface of the water body. A signal is transmitted, received, or a combination of transmitted and received using the transceiver through the air column to the surface of the water body.

Disclosed in the present invention is a system and method for supplying acetylene to an apparatus using acetylene, the system having at least one acetylene storage apparatus and an acetylene content analysis apparatus. The system and method disclosed in the present invention can utilize the capacity of an acetylene cylinder to a higher degree; before the solvent impurity concentration in acetylene gas reaches a level where it is no longer suitable, a more accurate understanding of the usable acetylene amount in the acetylene storage apparatus can be gained through detection, thereby reducing the number of times that the acetylene storage apparatus is refilled and replaced, and lowering the user's total costs.

A hydrogen discharge control system controls a hydrogen discharge flow rate in a hydrogen engine vehicle that discharges hydrogen from a hydrogen tank in which a resin liner is laminated on an inner wall, to a hydrogen engine, in accordance with an accelerator operation amount. The hydrogen discharge control system comprises a control device. The control device estimates a temperature attained in the hydrogen tank after a predetermined time elapses with the accelerator operation amount at a maximum during an on operation of an accelerator, based on a temporal temperature gradient in the hydrogen tank and a temperature in the hydrogen tank, and when the temperature attained is no higher than a first predetermined temperature, performs discharge limit control for limiting a maximum value of the hydrogen discharge flow rate from the hydrogen tank to a predetermined flow rate.

One or more indicators provide an indication of fueling status of a hydrogen powered vehicle. One or more sensors detect temperature and/or other characteristics of the fuel provided to the vehicle and provide an electrical signal to one or more of the indicators to permit an indication of fueling status. The indicators, which may be visual and/or audible, may be positioned on the fueling apparatus and on the vehicle in the vicinity of a fueling receptacle. The indicators may also be positioned elsewhere on the vehicle and may be separate from the vehicle such as on or around a fueling station and/or on separate computerized devices.
