  text: The application of hydrogen for energy storage and as a vehicle fuel necessitates
    efficient and effective storage technologies. In addition to traditional cryogenic
    and high-pressure tanks, an alternative approach involves utilizing porous materials
    such as activated carbons within the storage tank. The adsorption behaviour of
    hydrogen in porous structures is described using the Dubinin-Astakhov isotherm.
    To model the flow of hydrogen within the tank, we rely on the equations of mass
    conservation, the Navier-Stokes equations, and the equation of energy conservation,
    which are implemented in a computational fluid dynamics code and additional terms
    account for the amount of hydrogen involved in sorption and the corresponding
    heat release. While physical models are valuable, data-driven models often offer
    computational advantages. Based on the data from the physical adsorption model,
    a data-driven model is derived using various machine learning techniques. This
    model is then incorporated as source terms in the governing conservation equations,
    resulting in a novel hybrid formulation which is computationally more efficient.
    Consequently, a new method is presented to compute the temperature and concentration
    distribution during the charging and discharging of hydrogen tanks and identifying
    any limiting phenomena more easily.

  text: Towards renewable energy systems, the coupling of multiple sectors is important
    and incorporates novel technologies where currently no models exist that correctly
    represent all transient effects. Therefore, we present a method that incorporates
    Hardware-in-the-Loop simulations where virtual components as models are coupled
    to real and experimental facilities in real time. By including experimental components,
    a higher validity can be obtained and the practical applicability of renewable
    energy scenario can be discussed more profoundly. In this paper, the considered
    energy system consists of an experimental biocatalytic methanation reactor, a
    real photovoltaic park, a regenerative fuel cell and short-term storage units
    to supply a residential district. A representative control sequence of the methanator
    is obtained by modeling the scenario as an optimal control problem. A first HIL
    simulation highlights that modifications of the instrumentation are required for
    a grid injection of the generated methane. The scientific approach can be applied
    to any energy system where some of the considered components are available as
    experimental or real facilities. Non-exisiting components are simply replaced
    by models. The presented approach helps to determine which parts or process parameters
    are crucial for the planed operation before the overall energy system is realized
    on a larger scale. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
