Shipping liquid hydrogen.
Author(s) : WURSIG G.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Liquid hydrogen transport requires large-scale carriers and tanks with highly efficient insulation for low boil-off. No commercial liquid hydrogen carrier yet exists. The article discusses the on-going research in Germany to develop a liquid hydrogen carrier. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the principle design of a large scale hydrogen carrier based on carrying the product in spherical, super-insulated tanks of 36 m diameter (size corresponding to LNG type tanks). Two alternative designs were chosen for further analysis: a small waterplane area twin hull ship and a dock ship.
