| description | Hydrogen is the promising carbon-free fuel to be used massively in future transport based on fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) and internal combustion engines (ICE). The reliable and safe way to store hydrogen in vehicles is an open question. As a promising potential solution, hydrogen storage in liquid ammonia is postulated. In this case, the hydrogen is released due to ammonia decomposition under heat energy supply. In the hydrogen ICE, the ammonia decomposition could be provided at the expense of exhaust gas energy. The current article deals with developing test tools and methods for the experimental study of catalysts and reactor prototypes appropriate to the hydrogen ICE. A thermal-hydraulic approach without chromatography and mass spectrometry has been proposed to determine ammonia decomposition kinetics at different fluid pressure, temperature, and flow rate. The tests have validated the approach with the decomposition of ammonia in catalysts with aluminium shavings in stainless steel tube with an inner diameter of 10 mm. The identified ammonia decomposition rate is 0.0119 mol of H2 per gram of catalysts in 1 h. |
