Zero Emission: Lot 392 - H2CT Cryogenic Extension – Cryogenic System

The existing H2 Container Test Center has four test positions where at moment only tests with gaseous hydrogen can be performed. One of the test positions shall now be extend to liquid hydrogen and later liquid nitrogen (in the same system) infrastructure. For a better understanding of the whole system the technical specification includes the details of the gaseous supply system for the LH2 System (Lot 390) that was part of a previous call for tender. This tender is limited to the cryogenic supply system including the cryogenic panels, the field piping and the exhaust field piping (lot 392). Therefore, the following systems are needed: • Build up a cryogenic supply system for liquid hydrogen (also suitable for liquid nitrogen) with two new panels in the test center, including a new panel at the test position to connect the new infrastructures • Build up a cryogenic exhaust system for liquid hydrogen and process gases (gaseous hydrogen, nitrogen and helium) As interfaces DLR provides: • Gaseous Helium storage (gas bundles) • Cryogenic tank for liquid hydrogen and nitrogen • Flare stack for the exhaust system
