As environmental pollution has become a global concern, regulations on carbon emissions from maritime activities are being implemented, and interest in using renewable energy as fuel for ships is growing. Hydrogen, which does not release dioxide high density, can potentially replace fossil fuels source. Notably, storage of hydrogen liquid state considered the most efficient. In this study, 0.7 m3 tank suitable small vessels was designed, structural analysis conducted to assess its integrity. The extremely low liquefaction temperature at −253 °C need spatial efficiency tanks make vacuum insulation essential minimize heat transfer due convection. A composite system sprayed-on foam (SOFI) multilayer (MLI) applied annular space between inner outer shells, tube-shaped supporter made G-11 cryogenic (CR) material with thermal conductivity strength employed. selected layers STS 316L, exhibits sufficient ductility temperatures sensitivity embrittlement. performance quantitatively assessed by calculating boil-off rate (BOR) designed tank. Structural integrity evaluations were nine load cases analyses accordance IGF code.
