2. The design defect of the heat exchange component in the tank body causes the problem that the alloy powder in the tank body cannot be fully chemically reacted with hydrogen to generate insufficient hydrogen storage and release efficiency.
3. The traditional hydrogen pipeline is made of powder metallurgy materials, and because the powder materials are low in mechanical strength, the powder materials are easy to deform and even break to lose efficacy under the extrusion action of hydrogen storage materials in a tank body in the hydrogen storage and release process, and great potential safety hazards are caused to a solid hydrogen storage system.

Detailed Description
The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the attached drawings and detailed description:
as shown in figure 1, the device comprises a valve 1, a flange 2, a hydrogen pipeline 3, a quick connector 4, a heat exchange component 5, ribs 6 and a tank 7, wherein the tank 7 adopts a double-layer structure, and the bottom of the tank 7 is an elliptical end socket. The tank 7 comprises an inner shell 7a and an outer shell 7b which are coaxially arranged; an air interlayer is formed between the inner layer casing 7a and the outer layer casing 7b, and the wall thickness of the outer layer casing 7b is larger than that of the inner layer casing 7 a. As an example, the pressure in the air interlayer is kept consistent with the atmospheric pressure outside the tank 7 before hydrogen storage.
The upper part of the air interlayer is close to the top of the tank body 7, a quick connector 4 is arranged, and the quick connector 4 is a channel for connecting the air interlayer formed by the inner layer shell 7a and the outer layer shell 7b with the atmosphere outside the tank body 7 and is used for adjusting the air pressure difference between the air interlayer and the atmosphere in the tank body 7; the quick connector 4 is used for adjusting the positive and negative pressure states between the air interlayer and the atmospheric pressure outside the tank 7 according to the requirements of hydrogen storage and hydrogen release environment, and providing chemical reaction conditions for chemical reaction between the alloy powder in the inner shell 7a of the tank and the hydrogen. In addition, because the air interlayer exists in the tank body 7 and has the characteristics of double-layer shells, the air interlayer in the device also plays roles in preserving heat and increasing the strength of the tank body 7, the influence on the shells and the hydrogen pipeline 3 caused by the expansion and extrusion of powder is avoided, and the high efficiency and safety of the hydrogen storage and release process are ensured.
The lower end of the hydrogen pipeline 3 is inserted into the inner shell 7a, the upper end of the hydrogen pipeline is positioned through the flange 2 arranged at the upper end of the neck of the tank body 7, air holes are distributed on the outer circumferential surface of the hydrogen pipeline 3, the diameter of each air hole is 5mm, the holes are circumferentially perforated by 2, the radial positions with 50mm intervals are rotated by 90 degrees for repeated perforation, and the circulation is performed until the hydrogen pipeline 3 inserted into the hydrogen storage tank is covered. The air holes are used for providing channels for hydrogen gas input and delivery. The upper end of the neck of the tank body 7 is welded with a flange 2 (the flange is provided with an upper flange piece and a lower flange piece, the flange is welded at the moment), a hydrogen inlet and a hydrogen outlet are reserved in the middle of the flange 2 (the upper flange piece and the lower flange piece), a valve 1 is arranged at the hydrogen inlet and the outlet of the tank body 7, the valve 1 is used for controlling hydrogen to enter and exit the tank body 7, the flange 2 is provided with an upper flange piece and a lower flange piece, and the upper flange piece, the lower flange piece and a flange sealing gasket have the functions of connection and sealing. As an example, when the alloy powder is put into the tank 7, the lower flange is fixedly connected with the outlet of the tank 7, the upper flange is removed, the alloy powder is filled into the inner shell 7a, when the filled alloy powder reaches 90% of the total capacity of the inner shell 7a, the flange gasket is sleeved above the lower flange, at the same time, the upper flange is welded around the outer wall of the upper end of the hydrogen pipeline 3, the hydrogen pipeline 3 and the upper flange are welded into a whole, the welded hydrogen pipeline 3 and the upper flange are slowly inserted into the cavity of the inner shell 7a of the hydrogen storage tank 7 along with the hydrogen inlet and outlet of the tank 7, at this time, 90% of alloy powder is filled in the cavity, when the lower end surface of the upper flange is about 10cm away from the upper end surface of the lower flange, the alloy powder is added again, after the alloy powder is fully filled into the inner shell 7a, the upper flange is pressed onto the flange gasket and the lower flange, and the upper flange is connected in a sealing manner.
As an example, the particle size of the alloy powder filled in the inner shell 7a of the device is between 50 and 200 meshes, the alloy powder can generate physical change in the hydrogen storage and release processes, the volume of the alloy powder can expand by about 20%, the alloy powder forms a hard and loose porous block shape (similar to sintered coke) due to extrusion, and the alloy powder is completely solidified after the completion of multiple hydrogen absorption and release, and no powder state appears. In view of the fact that powder appears when the alloy powder reacts with hydrogen in the initial stage, in order to avoid the powder blocking the hydrogen pipeline 3 and affecting the purity of the produced hydrogen, the stainless steel wire mesh is wrapped on the outer surface of the hydrogen pipeline 3, the mesh number of the stainless steel wire mesh is larger than that of the alloy powder, and the quality of the produced hydrogen is improved (according to the basis of the powder science and the filtering technology, the unit of the powder particle size and the unit of the wire mesh aperture can be expressed by the mesh number, and the larger the mesh number is, the smaller the particle size is, and the smaller the mesh aperture is). Furthermore, the material selection of the hydrogen pipeline 3 is also free from the limitation of the traditional material, and is processed by adopting 316 stainless steel, so that the strength of the hydrogen pipeline 3 is improved, and the deformation and fracture phenomena caused by the chemical reaction of alloy powder and hydrogen are prevented.
The hydrogen inlet and outlet sides of the outer shell 7b of the tank body 7 are welded with a quick connector 4 which is used as a channel for inflating and deflating the air interlayer, so that the positive and negative pressure states between the air interlayer and the atmospheric pressure outside the tank body 7 can be conveniently adjusted.

As an example, the temperature of the heat-conducting medium is controlled by a heat-conducting furnace outside the tank 7, and in the process of hydrogen storage, in order to enable the hydrogen to fully react with the alloy powder to fully absorb the hydrogen, the temperature of the heat-conducting medium in the heat-exchanging component 5 needs to be controlled at 150 ℃ by the heat-conducting furnace; when the hydrogen is required to be released, the heat conduction furnace adjusts the temperature of the heat conduction medium to 310 ℃, and the U-shaped heat exchange tube and the fins in the heat exchange part 5 are used for providing sufficient and uniform heat environment for hydrogen release, and the heat conduction furnace is matched with a double-layer tank structure with an air interlayer to realize safe and efficient hydrogen storage and release.
As shown in fig. 3, the hydrogen pipeline 3 is made of 316 stainless steel, has a flute-shaped pipe structure, and has a pipe wall opening, and the outer wall of the hydrogen pipeline 3 is coated with a stainless steel wire mesh larger than 200 meshes, so that the dual functions of strengthening the pipe wall strength of the hydrogen pipeline 3 and filtering pure hydrogen of alloy powder are achieved.
Working principle:
and (3) a hydrogen charging process: firstly, 1MPa of high-pressure air is filled into an air interlayer between the inner shell 7a and the outer shell 7b, so that the heat exchange effect of the inner wall and the outer wall is improved, and the expansion resistance of the inner shell 7b is enhanced. Then hydrogen is conveyed to the inner layer shell 7a through the valve 1, the hydrogen pipeline 3 and the stainless steel wire mesh, and is contacted with alloy powder in the inner layer shell 7a to generate chemical reaction, so that a large amount of heat is released. At the moment, the heat is absorbed by the fins 6 and the heat conducting medium in the U-shaped heat exchange tube, so that the temperature in the tank body 7 is in a safe and stable state in the hydrogen charging reaction process.
And (3) a hydrogen release process: the air in the air interlayer between the inner shell 7a and the outer shell 7b is pumped to a vacuum state close to-0.1 MPa, so as to improve the heat preservation effect of the wall surface. The temperature of the heat conducting medium in the hydrogen pipeline 3 is adjusted to 310 ℃ through the heat conducting furnace, heat is fully and comprehensively transferred to the alloy powder through the pipe wall of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe and the ribs 6, and the powder absorbs a large amount of heat to generate chemical reaction to release hydrogen. For alloy powder which does not participate in hydrogen storage and hydrogen discharge chemical reaction, the particle size of the powder is smaller than 200 meshes, powder can be generated in the hydrogen release process, and a stainless steel wire mesh with the size larger than 200 meshes is arranged on a hydrogen pipeline 3 of the device, so that the fine alloy powder can be filtered, is prevented from being discharged from a tank 7 through the hydrogen pipeline 3 and a valve 1, and hydrogen impurities are eliminated.
The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily understood by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are intended to be included in the scope of the present invention.
