Abstract
Hydrogen finds more applications in transportation, e.g. for trucks, and small cars. To further broaden practical experience in the field of cryogenics as well as in design of cryogenic tanks, Magna Energy Storage System has built up a larger competence group with researchers and engineers having practical experience in cryogenics, vacuum techniques as well as designing of pressure vessels. The goal is the development of Liquid Hydrogen (LH2) storage tanks for trucks. For the test of single components with or without an insulation vacuum, a specially developed, very compact and mobile cryostat is being developed. The cryostat will be used for testing of components in the range of 20–450 K, for example, adsorption material, heat exchanger, valves, transfer line, etc. It could be dis-/ assembled within a few hours and transported to other companies or research facilities. In the present paper, the design of the cryostat is presented.
