High-Pressure Gaseous H₂
We start with compressed gaseous hydrogen (350–700 bar) to remove cryogenic complexity, iterate faster, and build airport-ready playbooks—then scale.
The stack covers Type-IV tanks, PRD strategies, regulation, ventilation & detection, and turnaround procedures for multi-airport operations.
Why Gaseous H₂ First
No cryogenics. Faster infrastructure fit, simpler operations, and a clear path to cert evidence on delivery, detection, and procedures.
Fewer ground constraints; shorter turnarounds.
PRD, ventilation, and bay layouts operators can adopt.
Evidence mapped into DO-160 / engine & airport norms.
System Overview
Validated burst/PRD behavior, weight trades, mounting & CG integration.
Isolations, relief paths, purge strategy, and safe discharge routing.
Stable flow to engine across 350–700 bar; transients and fail-safes.
Ducting, extraction, and dilution to keep concentrations well below LFL.
Sensor placement, coverage modeling, alarm logic, and validation tests.
Refuel, checks, and dispatch under < 25 minutes target.
Targets & Metrics
Quantitative goals guide design trades and evidence collection.
How the Storage System Works
- Storage: Type-IV tanks store gaseous H₂ at 350–700 bar with engineered mounting & CG management.
- Protection: PRD network and isolation valves create safe relief and shutdown paths.
- Regulation: Precision metering delivers stable flow to engine across conditions and transients.
- Ventilation & Detection: Ducting and sensor coverage maintain low concentrations and rapid alarms.
Architecture evolves with evidence; modules are designed to be reused across engine families.
