Öğe A heat and mass transfer model for metal hydride reactors(Committee of WHEC2014, 2014) Canavar, M.; Timurkutluk, B.; Çelik, S.; Mat, A.; Genç, Ö.; Kaplan, Y.Hydrogen absorption in two LaNi5-H2 reactors is experimentally and theoretically investigated. In the experimental program, two tanks are filled with LaNi5 alloy and hydrogen is charged with a constant pressure. The temperature changes in the tanks are measured at several locations and recorded in a computer. Hydriding process is identified from measured temperature histories. In the theoretical program, a two dimensional mathematical model, which considers complex heat and mass transfer and fluid flow is developed and numerically solved. The numerical results are compared with the measured data to validate the mathematical model. A reasonable agreement between the numerical results and experimental data is obtained.

Three different cylindrical reactors with the same base dimensions are designed and manufactured. The first one is a closed cylinder cooled with natural convection, the fins are manufactured around the second reactor and the third reactor is cooled with water circulating around the reactor. The temperatures of the reactor at several locations are measured during charging with a range of pressure of 110 bar. The third reactor shows the lowest temperature increase with the fastest charging time under all charging pressures investigated. The effective heat transfer coefficients of the reactors are also calculated according to the experimental results and they are found to be 5.5 +/- 1 W m(-2) K(-1), 35 +/- 2 W m(-2) K(-1) and 113 +/- 1 W m(-2) K(-1), respectively. The experimental results showed that the charging of hydride reactors is mainly heat transfer dependent and the reactor with better cooling exhibits the fastest charging characteristics.
