Abstract
A solid hydrogen storage device provides an improved heat-transfer efficiency by improving the contact properties between heat-exchange tubes and heat-transfer fins. The solid hydrogen storage device includes a heat-transfer fin including a plurality of tube through holes, a heating tube, and a cooling tube. The heating tube and the cooling tube respectively extend through the tube through holes, and the heating tube and the cooling tube have different coefficients of thermal expansion.
Claims10
A solid hydrogen storage device comprising:
- a heat-transfer fin including a plurality of tube through holes formed therein;
- and
- a heating tube and a cooling tube, which respectively extend through tube through holes of the plurality of tube through holes,
- wherein the heating tube has a first coefficient of thermal expansion and the cooling tube has a second coefficient of thermal expansion, and wherein the first coefficient of the thermal expansion is different from the second coefficient of thermal expansion.
