Hydrogen Tank Design and Optimization Project

Specification:

  1. Hydrogen Tanks volume is approximately 1 liter.
  2. Hydrogen is compressed to 8 bar.
  3. Normal operating condition (room temperature and humidity).
  4. Maximum budget is Rp500.000

Material Selection:

  SS-304 material by looking at the ASME II D table, a yield strength is 30,000 psi, based by calculations using ASME VIII, this material withstand a pressure of 32 bar, this tube is sufficient to withstand a pressure of 8 bar.

Design:

  Based on ASME VIII Div 1, we get

  Joint efficiency (E) = 0,85
  MAWS (SS-304 Seamless Pipe) = 30000 psi
  OD = 3,94 inch
  Outside radius (r) = 1,97 inch
  Corrossion Allowance (CA) = 0,01 inch
  Thickness (ta) = 0,05 inch
  Thickness (t) = (ta-CA) = 0,04 inch

  Find Diameter and Height
  In this case we know that Volume of Tanks is V = πr^2h, so we know that V = 1L or 0,001 m^3 and height 10cm (0.1 cm)
  0.001 m^3 = 3.14 x r^2 x 0.1
  r = 0.057 m = 5.7 cm, so diameter of the tanks is 11.4 cm

Manufacturing Process:

  Prepare the chosen materials in accordance with the design specifications.
  Manufacturing process may involve cutting, forming, and welding the steel plates.

Quality Assurance and Testing:

  Hydrogen storage systems are subject to specific regulations and standards, depending on jurisdiction and application. Ensure compliance with applicable codes, regulations and industry standards, such as those set by the 
  American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) or the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
