Metal hydrides are a widely-used method for storing and releasing hydrogen chemically under moderate conditions.

This paper will present how highly dynamic metal hydride storage has been simulated and optimized using COMSOL Multiphysics. It will be shown how mass, energy and momentum balances were implemented and what boundary conditions were set to resolve various scenarios.

The result of the simulation is an optimized storage system design; with respect to heat transfer, weight and manufacturing outlay. In addition, it can be used to draw conclusions on the optimum storage material for particular requirements.
