Abstract

The invention comprises a high rate pressure vessel filling process which improves the accuracy of filling pressure vessels to required gas mass. The approach overcomes heating effects of high rate filling and volume variation effects by slowly prefilling a series of temperature monitored and controlled cylinders of a set volume, then rapidly discharging the premeasured gas mass into the pressure vessel.
