20250027616 · 2025-01-23 ·

A hydrogen fueling system for vehicles includes a hydrogen storage tank holding liquid hydrogen, 400 to 500 bar storage systems for compressed hydrogen, and hydrogen dispensers providing fuel to vehicles. A pump circulates hydrogen from the storage tank through a heat conditioning system to the dispenser at a desired fueling temperature. A control system manages pump flow through the dispenser supply system, precooling the dispensers and supplementing flow from storage when fueling vehicles with onboard storage exceeding 250 liters. This system efficiently delivers hydrogen fuel to vehicles, ensuring optimal fueling conditions and accommodating varying storage capacities.
