The article describes the design and strength calculation of a low-pressure steel tank, which is used for storage of hydrogen in a metal alloy based on Ti and Zr. An external liquid heat exchanger is considered in the design of the metal hydride tank. Strength calculations were performed to verify the selected wall thickness of the vessel and the wall thickness of the selected bottom type according to STN EN 13322-2 standard for the implementation of a metal hydride tank in operating conditions.

Keywords: Hydrogen, metal alloy, metal hydride storage, hydrogen storage, strength calculation.
