A recent patent filed by Hyundai Motor Company outlines an innovative control method for hydrogen fueling specifically designed for hydrogen-fueled vehicles.
This method aims to optimize the fueling process and ensure a smooth operation of hydrogen-fueled mobility. The patent describes a comprehensive control method that includes acquiring a measurement value of the current state of the hydrogen fueling system. This involves determining the existing parameters and operational conditions during the fueling process. Once these values are obtained, the system evaluates whether they meet the necessary criteria to proceed with fueling or if adjustments are needed.
Based on the measurements acquired, the control method determines if a secondary control command is required. This command can be directed at the hydrogen fueling station and/or the hydrogen-fueled vehicle itself. The purpose is to enhance or modify the parameters set by the primary control command initiated at the dispenser side.
Upon assessing the current state and necessity for further commands, the system generates a second control command. This command is customized for the specific requirements of either the hydrogen fueling station or the hydrogen-fueled vehicle. The key here is to ensure optimal synergy between the two components, facilitating an efficient and safe hydrogen fueling experience.
This advanced control method by Hyundai has the potential to revolutionize hydrogen fueling processes. By enabling real-time adjustments and monitoring, it ensures that hydrogen-fueled vehicles are filled accurately and safely. Moreover, it reduces the margin for error during the fueling operation, contributing to the reliability and practicality of hydrogen as a cleaner energy source for mobility.
