ABSTRACT:
A hydrogen fuel system comprises an open gas circuit that includes a source of hydrogen. The hydrogen fuel system also includes a compressor that forces a flow of hydrogen from the source of hydrogen through the open gas circuit, and a hydrogen storage vessel comprising an inlet and an outlet. The hydrogen fuel system may also include a hydrogen storage bed being disposed within the hydrogen storage vessel between the inlet and the outlet, the hydrogen storage vessel being adapted to form a portion of the open gas circuit so that the hydrogen storage bed is cooled by convection while hydrogen flows through the open gas circuit.
