System and method for cryogenic fluid delivery by way of a superconducting power transmission line
Abstract:
A combined electrical power and hydrogen energy infrastructure includes a superconducting electrical transmission line. One or more fluid paths are adapted to cool one or more superconductors of the electrical transmission line to a superconducting operating condition and to deliver hydrogen in a liquid state. The combined electrical power and hydrogen energy infrastructure also includes a supply apparatus to pump hydrogen into the one or more paths and to cool and pressurize the hydrogen to maintain the hydrogen in a liquid state. A distribution apparatus is operatively coupled to the one or more fluid paths at a different location along or at an end of the electrical transmission line to draw off the hydrogen for distribution of the hydrogen for use as a hydrogen fuel. An electrical transmission line and a method for supplying a fluid via an electrical transmission line are also described.
