Abstract

Burst tests are important when developing type IV hydrogen pressure vessels (HPVs). These tests are easy to conduct for fuel cell electric vehicle-type HPVs but challenging for tube-skid type IV HPVs for gas transport owing to limitations associated with the test equipment and space and intense explosive power requirements. Herein, a short-body HPV is proposed to promote the development of tube-skid type IV HPVs. Scale HPVs (original-body, short-body) were manufactured by applying a minimized pattern, which was generated via tow-prepreg property and structural analyses using Abaqus WCM. Thereafter, the hydrostatic pressure burst test was conducted on the scaled models, and the applicability of the short-body HPV to tube-skid type IV HPVs was evaluated. The experimental results confirmed the equivalence of the burst pressures between the original and short-body HPVs under the same pattern application conditions.
