Method for measuring the quantity of gas introduced into a reservoir and filling station
A quantity of gas is introduced into a gas reservoir via a filling station provided with a filling line. The quantity is measured. A signal is generated indicating a corrected quantity of transferred gas. The signal is obtained by adding a predetermined, positive or negative, corrective amount to the measured quantity of gas transferred.
Gaseous fueling system
A computer-implemented method of supplying a fuel gas to a fueling system is disclosed. The method may include pre-fill inerting the fueling system; leak-checking the fueling system; charging a pilot subsystem with the fuel gas; filling the fueling system with the fuel gas; and post-fill inerting the fueling system. In many implementations, the fueling system may be associated with a boat. The fuel gas may be hydrogen and may be supplied to a fuel cell that converts the hydrogen to electrical energy to power a propulsion system of the boat.
Method and apparatus for calculating volume of compressed gas storage vessel, computer, and medium
Provided are a method and apparatus for calculating a volume of a compressed gas storage vessel, a computer, and a medium. According to the method, three test vessels with known volume and initial pressure are used to establish a pressure equilibrium with a compressed gas storage system, and pressure values in three equilibrium states are respectively detected. In this way, according to the three pressure values and the known volumes and initial pressures, a volume of the compressed gas storage system, a volume of a hose, and a pressure value of the compressed gas storage system in an initial state can be quickly and accurately calculated. By accurately obtaining the volume of the compressed gas storage system, the volume of the hose, and the pressure value of the compressed gas storage system in the initial state, a refueling rate can be increased as much as possible while ensuring safe refueling.

HEAT EXCHANGER AND METHOD FOR REFUELING A VEHICLE
A heat exchanger, including a heat exchanger tube for guiding a first medium in its interior, and also at least one connection for a second medium, wherein the region around the heat exchanger tube is provided by an open-pored, in particular solid, material, preferably a body of such a material, into which the second medium in particular can enter.
PRESSURE OR FLOW REGULATION METHOD FOR GASEOUS HYDROGEN DISPENSING SYSTEM
The present invention relates to a method for improving stability of a hydrogen gaseous dispensing system. An example of such system is hydrogen powered vehicle fuel filling station. Vehicle is filled by multiple high pressure gaseous hydrogen tubes, usually one tube at a time. For safety and reliability reasons a control requirement for such system is to be able to deliver the hydrogen at constant rate to the fuel tank so that its rate of pressure increase stays constant during entire filling process. A dual pressure regulator arrangement is proposed to better maintain flow continuity and/or pressure during tube switching.
