Mathematical modeling of the PCT curve of hydrogen storage alloys

Abstract The PCT curve presents the thermodynamic characteristics of hydrogen storage alloys, which consist of hydrogen storage capacity, the temperature, and the equilibrium presure in hydriding and dehydriding, the mathematical modeling of which is important for the application of hydrogen storage alloys in various techniques. Mathematical modeling of the PCT curve of hydrogen storage alloys was studied. It has been shown that the calculated PCT curves are in good agreement with the experimental curves, and a lot of physical parameters, which are very useful, can be estimated from the modeling.
