description Hydrogen has been considered as a feasible energy carry for fuel cell vehicles, which offers a clean and efficient alternative for transportation. In the currently developed hydrogen compression cycle system, hydrogen is compressed through a compressor and stored in the tank as high pressure. The hydrogen is filled from high pressure station into hydrogen storage system in fuel cell vehicles. In the study, theoretical and simulation are performed by presenting a mathematical model for the temperature rise during filling process in the hydrogen storage tank at the pressure of 50 MPa compressed hydrogen system. For a high-pressure tank (HPT) that can store hydrogen at a hydrogen filling station, the temperature rise of hydrogen with the pressure change during the filling process, the amount of hydrogen filling in the tank, and the convective heat transfer coefficient in the tank were calculated. The calculated temperature was compared with numerical and theoretical methods. Appropriate theoretical formulas were presented through mathematical modeling for changes that occur when high-pressure storage tanks were filled, and hydrogen properties were analyzed using the REFPROP program. 3D modeling was performed for the high-pressure storage tank, and the analysis was conducted under adiabatic conditions. When the pressure was increased to 50 MPa in the initial vacuum state, and when the residual pressure was 18 MPa, it was 25, 50, 75,and 100 MPa, and hydrogen inside the storage tank of the temperature rise and the amount of hydrogen filling were investigated. The results of this study will be useful for the design and construction of compressed hydrogen tank for hydrogen charging system.
