Problems solved by technology

But its disadvantage is that with the increase of the expansion graphite filling, since the expansion graphite does not participate in the hydrogen absorption reaction, the hydrogen storage density per unit volume of the reaction bed will decrease, and the volume heat storage density will also decrease accordingly.
For example: in the patent of Chinese patent application number CN201610606744.7, a metal hydride reactor is disclosed, including "multi-layer reaction bed, each layer of the reaction bed has an upper and lower Two-layer structure, wherein the lower layer is a composite material layer, the composite material layer contains a hydrogen storage alloy and / or a metal hydride, the hydrogen storage alloy reacts with hydrogen to form a metal hydride and releases heat, or the metal hydride absorbs The heat reaction generates the hydrogen storage alloy and the hydrogen gas", the filling amount of the filler increases, because the filler does not participate in the reaction, the hydrogen storage density per unit volume of the reaction bed will decrease

Abstract

The invention discloses a metal hydride reactor gradiently filled with expanded graphite. The metal hydride reactor comprises a shell, a reaction bed, a hydrogen inlet and outlet pipe and a heat exchange pipe, wherein the reaction bed is of a multi-layer structure; the interior of each layer of the reaction bed is filled with expanded graphite; and the mass contents of the expanded graphite filling in all layers of the reaction bed are gradiently increased. The metal hydride reactor provided by the invention can reduce the usage amount of a highly-conductive material, namely, the expanded graphite, enables the heat storage density per unit volume of the layers of the reaction bed to be increased, and can improve the rate of a hydrogen absorption reaction compared with a metal hydride reactor with equal addition amount of the expanded graphite.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fixed bed reactors, in particular to a metal hydride reactor filled with expanded graphite in gradient. Background technique [0002] With the development of economy and society, the energy problem has become one of the main bottlenecks restricting social development. Facing the pressure of resource depletion, sustainable new energy such as solar energy and waste heat recovery have gradually become a research hotspot. However, solar energy and non-continuously produced industrial waste heat all have the problem that energy cannot be continuously supplied. Therefore, the implementation of efficient thermal storage technology is a necessary means to solve the above-mentioned mismatch between energy supply and demand in terms of time and space. [0003] Heat storage technologies include sensible heat, phase change latent heat and thermochemical heat storage technologies. Among them, the heat storage techno...
