Abstract

A gas production system for producing high pressure gas is disclosed. The gas production system may perform a method for producing high pressure gaseous fuel. The method may include receiving liquefied fuel in a container having an effective volume, reducing the effective volume of the container, and heating the liquefied fuel. The method may also include releasing some gaseous fuel out of the container. The method may further include increasing the effective volume of the container, cooling residual gaseous fuel, and directing liquefied fuel into the container to replace released gaseous fuel. The method may include converting a change in the effective volume of the container to mechanical power.
