Popis: | In order to reduce carbon dioxide and air pollution emissions, fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) are being developed, and CFRP pressure vessels have been used as the hydrogen storage systems for the FCVs. Since the FCVs are expected to increase driving distances of at least over 500 km, which is similar to those of conventional gasoline-fueled vehicles, the storage pressure of hydrogen must be raised from 35 to 70 MPa. It is important to decrease the amount of carbon fibers in order to reduce the cost and weight of the CFRP pressure vessels. In this study, a fast fabrication method for the cylindrical-shaped grids (CSG) composed of hoop stiffeners and helical stiffeners was developed with a particular mandrel and a 3-axis filament winding apparatus. Then, the CFRP pressure vessel was inserted into the CSG, and burst tests of the CFRP pressure vessels reinforced with and without the CSG were conducted. Moreover, their experimental results were compared with numerical ones obtained by a FEM analysis, and the mechan... |
