A conceptual design for the cryosorption storage of gaseous hydrogen in activated carbon for vehicular application has been presented. In this work, a novel concept for the storage/discharge of hydrogen has been proposed. This system ensures faster filling and gradual release of hydrogen on demand. These two features are important for making onboard hydrogen storage effective for small cars. Numerical models for adsorption and desorption half cycles are presented. Assuming that the pressurisation and depressurisation are occurring adiabatically, transient analysis has been done to critically study the effective hydrogen storage capacity of activated carbon. The amount of activated carbon required to store hydrogen for travelling a specific distance has been computed.
