Provided is a pressure tank having a lattice structure, including: a tank body that has a high-pressure fluid accommodated therein and is manufactured to have a prismatic shape; and cell structures that are disposed in the prismatic tank body, are manufactured in a lattice form, arrive from one side wall of the tank body to the other side wall thereof facing it, and are orthogonally arranged regularly.

In a high pressure gas container with a container body having a fusible plug valve and a boss portion arranged at a position different from the fusible plug valve, each of the fusible plug valve and the boss portion has a higher heat conductivity than the container body, the fusible plug valve and the boss portion are connected by a heat conductor and the heat conductor is accommodated in the container body.

A Reduced Boil-off Thermal Conditioning System (RBTC System) for transferring liquid natural gas (LNG) from a LNG supply tank to a LNG storage tank with reduced boil-off is disclosed. The RBTC System includes the LNG storage tank, a cryogenic fluid tank within the LNG supply tank, and a compressor. The LNG storage tank includes a first and second LNG pipe. The cryogenic fluid tank is configured to store a cryogenic fluid within the cryogenic fluid tank and the first and second LNG pipe are in fluid communication with to the cryogenic fluid tank. The first LNG pipe is in fluid communication with compressor.

A power management system and method including a normally-open switch, an on/off circuit, a microprocessor, and at least one sensor to monitor a condition. The on/off circuit includes an on/off control gate-controlled switch device such as a PMOS device for system power, a flip/flop switch to respectively activate and deactivate the on/off control PMOS device, and a transition detection circuit connected to the normally-open switch. A single DC power source establishes a source voltage to power the on/off circuit and the normally-open switch. The transition detection circuit generates an on signal when the user initially activates the normally-open switch, and supplies the on signal to the flip/flop switch to change it to an on state to activate the on/off control PMOS device. While activated, the on/off control PMOS device enables system power from the power source to be provided to at least the sensor and the microprocessor. The microprocessor generates an off signal when the normally-open switch is activated for at least a selected period of time, and supplies the off signal to the flip/flop switch to change it to an off state to deactivate the on/off control PMOS device and thereby disable system power to at least the sensor and the microprocessor.

Disclosed is a pneumatic membrane gasometer for the storage of hydrogen gas at low pressure. The gasometer includes: a first bag-shaped membrane delimiting a hydrogen storage chamber; a second membrane partially delimiting a pressurization chamber superimposed, at least in part, on the storage chamber; a third membrane, placed resting on top of the first membrane, fixed in an impermeable manner at least to the second membrane, defining, with the first membrane, a cavity open towards the outside of the gasometer; hydrogen supply and discharge unit associated with the storage chamber; pressurization unit; mechanical anchor to a base surface of the first, second and third membranes; and a natural passive ventilation system to vent any hydrogen losses to the outside, including a duct adapted to connect cavity to the outside environment passing through the pressurization chamber.

A gas control system includes a high pressure tank, a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, an injector, and a gas control ECU. The high pressure tank includes a liner, a reinforcing layer, and a discharge hole for discharging hydrogen gas from the liner. The temperature sensor detects the temperature of the reinforcing layer or the temperature around the outside of the high pressure tank. In the implementation of the gas control method, the gas control ECU, based on temperature information detected by the temperature sensor and pressure information detected by the pressure sensor, changes the timing of starting limiting control for limiting the discharge of hydrogen gas.

A closure is configured for use with a portable cryogenic container or dewar, such as a dry vapor shipper (DVS). The closure has a hollow body, a plurality of super-insulating panels, an outer perimeter, and a fluid passage. The hollow body includes a top wall, a bottom wall, and a side wall connecting the top and bottom walls. The super-insulating panels are stacked within the hollow body. The outer perimeter forms a fluid-tight seal with a neck of the cryogenic container when the closure is in an installed position in the neck of the cryogenic container, the fluid-tight seal being continuous about an entirety of the outer perimeter to form a closed circumscription about the entirety of the outer perimeter. A fluid passage extends through the top wall, the plurality of super-insulating panels, and the bottom wall, the fluid passage being spaced from the outer perimeter of the closure.

The technology disclosed by the invention relates to a pressure vessel system for a motor vehicle for storing fuel, comprising a plurality of pressure vessels (100) that are combined to a pressure vessel assembly (10), the pressure vessels (100), when mounted, being arranged substantially in parallel relative to each other, and the pressure vessels (100) being fluidically interconnected via a common fuel line (200).

The present invention relates to a method, system, vehicle, and computer program product for determining time data relating to a non-combustion outlet process of a fuel gas from a gas tank associated with a vehicle. The method comprises providing a model for the state of fuel gas in the gas tank. The method further comprises determining time data relating to the outlet process of the fuel gas based on the model.

A cylinder for liquefied gas that includes a withdrawal tube that prevents liquid product from the cylinder from being inadvertently dispensed to the tool downstream. The cylinder also includes a level measuring means used to determine the remaining liquid level in the cylinder. A low power level display to indicate low levels of liquid in the cylinder using a minimum of power consumption may also be included.
