Secondary standard for hydrogen refuelling station verification: Method and requirements

Abstract:
The requirements for the refuelling process to minimise overheating and overfilling have a considerable influence on HRS design and have a substantial impact on prospective fuelling performance. Type approval of HRS is a complex, expensive and time-consuming process whereas on-field inspection should be quick, cost efficient, reliable, and easy to perform. This paper describes a secondary flow standard which could be used to meet those objectives. Through the implementation of secondary standard verification, type approval time willdrastically decrease from 2 days of testing (using the primary standard) to half a day. Thus, decreasing operation time and cost which will appeal to investors (OPEX reduction). This will pave the way for the development of new hydrogen infrastructure to facilitate the increase in hydrogen cars.
