Abstract
Metal hydrides can store hydrogen at low pressures and with high volumetric capacity. For the possible application as storage medium in hydrogen stand-alone power systems, large metal hydride hydrogen storage units are usually required. A reliable and verified kinetic correlation is an important tool in the designing process of a larger storage unit. This paper describes kinetic investigation of a AB5-type alloy and its corresponding hydride, with the purpose of finding a semi-empirical correlation suitable for use in heat and mass transfer modelling and engineering design of metal hydride storage units.
