K-Value (Insulation)

K-Value (Insulation)

Introduction

K-value measures how well insulation prevents heat loss — vital for hydrogen storage tanks that need stable thermal conditions.

Hydrogen Storage and Insulation – HySafe

🧠 What It Means

  • Lower K-value = better insulation.

  • Important for cryogenic liquid hydrogen (LH₂) storage.

  • Impacts boil-off rate and system efficiency.

Key Challenges

  • Extreme temperatures make insulation design harder.

  • Materials must stay strong under cold and pressure.

  • Trade-offs between thickness, weight, and cost.

🦁 Muzaffar’s Comment

“K-value may be a simple number, but it’s what keeps our hydrogen cool and safe.”

🦉 Sameer’s Comment

“No one likes losing energy — good insulation starts with knowing your K-value.”
