National Composites Centre in Bristol, U.K., has launched a new composite cryogenic storage tank testing program, which will be used to validate and accelerate design, manufacture, and testing capabilities. The initial testing will involve a linerless carbon fiber tank that is designed for storing liquid hydrogen (LH2). Cryogenic storage tanks are an essential component of hydrogen-powered aircraft set to launch in the mid-2030s. While most designs for storing LH2 have been based on metallic tanks, they tend to be heavy. Composite tanks developed in the space industry tend to be suitable for only single-use applications. Commercial hydrogen aircraft will require…
