Abstract

A pressure vessel arrangement has a pressure vessel for storing a gaseous fuel and a conducting arrangement arranged adjacent to the pressure vessel for conducting and weakening a shock wave occurring upon bursting of the pressure vessel. The conducting arrangement forms a chamber space that can be expanded by the shock wave. The conducting arrangement has an inlet into the space facing the pressure vessel, via which the shock wave enters the space and expands the space, and wherein the conducting arrangement has at least one outlet out of the space, via which the shock wave exits the space into the environment.
