Abstract
Proposed is a hydrogen management system in which location information, pressure information, temperature information, collision information, hydrogen concentration information, and flow rate information are transmitted from sensors mounted in a manifold of each of a plurality of tube trailers (T1, T2, . . . ), and the hydrogen consumption amount, the remaining hydrogen amount, the number of users, etc. are transmitted from the plurality of hydrogen charging stations (S1, S2, . . . ) so that current hydrogen storage and demand amounts are predicted, thereby managing an entire hydrogen cycle, including hydrogen production, in an integrated manner.
Claims14
A hydrogen monitoring apparatus comprising:
- a sensor unit mounted in a manifold of each of a plurality of hydrogen tube trailers and comprising at least one of a position sensor, a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, a collision detection sensor, a gas leak detection sensor, and a flow rate sensor;
- a sensing information processing unit, installed in each of the plurality of hydrogen tube trailers, having a first communication module that receives pieces of sensing information from the sensor unit and a controller that processes the received sensing information;
- and
- a control server configured to receive at least one of the pieces of sensing information from the sensing information processing unit of each of the plurality of hydrogen tube trailers and to monitor states of the plurality of hydrogen tube trailers,
- wherein the sensing information processing unit transmits at least one piece of information of the plurality of pieces of received sensing information to the control server,
- wherein the sensing information of the pressure sensor and the flow rate sensor is transmitted at a shorter interval than the sensing information of the temperature sensor.
A hydrogen management system comprising:
- at least one first communication part mounted in a manifold of each of a plurality of hydrogen tube trailers and configured to transmit and receive sensing information sensed from the manifold;
- at least one second communication part installed in each of a plurality of hydrogen charging stations and configured to transmit and receive operational information of the plurality of hydrogen charging stations;
- and
- a control server configured to receive the sensing information and the operational information from the first communication part and the second communication part, respectively,
- wherein the sensing information is at least one of location information, pressure information, temperature information, collision information, hydrogen concentration information, and flow rate information, and
- wherein the operational information is at least one of a hydrogen consumption amount, a remaining hydrogen amount, and the number of users at each of the plurality of hydrogen charging station,
- wherein the control server receives the pressure information and the flow rate information at shorter intervals than the temperature information,
- wherein the control server calculates a total storage amount of hydrogen stored in the plurality of hydrogen tube trailers based on the sensing information received from the first communication part.
