| |
− | '''
| |
− |
| |
− | In week 1 I did some research on Hydrogen Storage and some of the limitations that have been set for this assignment. I Consciously think that to collect some data related to what needs are needed to understand the basics of designing and optimizing Hydrogen Storage. There are lots of considerations that must be collected and must be researched if we want to optimize a product that already exists. Collecting data in a short time will certainly be a challenge. This is where I have a solution for using AI technology that is being widely discussed in the world, namely the GPT Chat. GPT Chat provides many outlines of considerations that we can use in designing and optimizing a tool or product.

− | '''ChatGPT Response'''
| |
− |
| |
− | ChatGPT provides several considerations and steps that we can take and examine in optimizing Hydrogen Storage. Among them are: Tank Selection, Tank Material, Tank Safety, Cost Optimization, and several other additions

| |
− | '''System Requirements
| |
− | '''
| |
− |
| |
− | The initial system requirements that must be considered before designing and optimizing Hydrogen Storage include the selection of tanks and their materials, pressure regulators, valves and fittings as well as safety features that are applied to the Hydrogen Storage.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Storage Method
| |
− | '''
| |
− |
| |
− | In this case the storage method that we can use within the limits specified above is Cryogenic Tanks where this storage method involves storing hydrogen in liquid form at very low temperatures. Cryogenic tanks, often insulated vessels, are used to store and maintain hydrogen in its liquid state.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Material Selection'''
| |
− |
| |
− | Choose a gas cylinder made of steel, as it is generally more affordable than other materials like aluminum alloy. Steel cylinders are widely used for compressed gas storage and offer good strength and durability.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | '''System Design'''
| |
− |
| |
− | In developing and optimizing the detailed Hydrogen storage for storage systems, we consider factors such as vessel shape, internal volume, structural integrity, valve placement and fitting, thermal management, and pressure relief mechanisms. The design software that can help us to do the design is computer-assisted (CAD) which can also be combined with other mechanical analysis software such as Ansys or other CFD analysis.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Safety Measures'''
| |
− |
| |
− | Ensure that the selected tank has proper safety features, such as pressure relief mechanisms and valves, to prevent over-pressurization. It should comply with safety standards like ISO 11119 for gas cylinders, ISO 16111 or ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.
