Design and analysis of conformal composite LH2 fuel tanks for hypersonic aircrafts Background The need for more detailed investigations on liquid hydrogen tanks in future airliners is urgent in hypersonic aviation. The propellant tank technologies are critical for the vehicle operations, cost and safety. New materials and design concepts are required, such as fibre composites, in order to reduce the tank weight and to increase the structural performance. This is particularly important if the tank has load carrying functions. CHATT Project The main focus is to reduce tank weight and increase structural performance of cryogenic tanks. New materials (Carbon Fiber Reinforced plastic-CFRP) and design concepts need to be explored [1]. To minimize the weight, ‘iso-tensoid’ structures provide the lightest solutions. Fibre reinforced materials are structurally the most efficient material for pressure vessels due to their high specific strength, stiffness and because there is the possibility to direct the right amount of fibers according to the orientation and the magnitude of the principal stresses. Cryogenic environment Long duration flights Tank geometry and size Fuel permeation Tank wall & Liner material selection Hydrogen embrittlement Aim of my research The aim of the research would be the design, prototyping and testing of composite tanks -that deviate from classic shape- for cryogenic fuel containment. The challenge in my research is to preserve structural optimality, select suitable materials, design the tank within the limitations posed by manufacturing, maintenance and operation, manufacture proof-of-concept tanks and employ various testing methods. Research methodology A) Design Procedures Flight duration time affects significantly tank architecture. Design challenges: Integration or no-integration at aircraft Volume efficiency Tank weight minimization Optimum distribution of thermo-mechanical loads D) Testing Procedures Permeability tests for various polymer liners – Helium at a) room and b) cryogenic temperatures Thermo-mechanical tests (TMA) for various polymer liners and composite materials for linear thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) calculation Micro-cracking tests on representative of reinforced candidate materials (LCP & toughened epoxy) at a) room temperature and at b) –55 o C Run comparative tests on load concentration between experimental and FE Model Progress A small deal of progress was obtained to my own judgment, since I’ve started working on CHATT project only recently (2 months). Results can be seen below: Definition of liner materials demands and selection Liner requirements: (H 2 permeation resistance, thermal expansion compatibility with composite, low density & good resistance to thermo-mechanical loads) Definition of permeability testing apparatus setup requirements Publications -M.
