East Aurora, NY听(June 19, 2023)听鈥撎齅oogInc., in the UK, has developed a novel concept in hydrogen storage and is working with Polar Technology Management Group Ltd to develop an integrated hydrogen storage and management solution termed 鈥淗ydrogen in a Box鈥�. The system, developed for use in commercial aircraft, is based around optimal packaging efficiency, gravimetric efficiency, and the ability to integrate valves and control systems into one optimized solution.
A six-month long technology evaluation process has been completed and test hardware will now be manufactured. The design has been evaluated as Type 3 and Type 4 versions for both 350Bar and 700Bar applications.
Kieran Burley, Lead Engineer at Polar Technology said 鈥淭his is a very exciting time to be working on hydrogen storage solutions, there are so many opportunities for innovation, optimization and integration. Combining novel design solutions along with innovative manufacturing processes we can package hydrogen storage efficiently in a series of co-dependent chambers forming a storage bank, rather than fitting a number of standard independent cylinders into the space.鈥�
Mark Lawton, 刘玥首次大战黑人鈥檚 General Manager of the Aircraft Control Components division stated, 鈥淚t has been great for Moogto collaborate with Polar in providing novel methods to efficiently store and release hydrogen in mission-critical environments. This project is an integral part of 刘玥首次大战黑人鈥檚 commitment to develop future green technology for commercial air travel.鈥�
The joint project will establish an appropriate specification and set of system-level requirements for hydrogen storage and delivery systems for aircraft and other Industrial applications.
