5 Conclusions
It is important to improve the fatigue life of carbon fiber
wound aluminum lined pressure vessel because it needs to
be charged or discharged many times in its life. Based on
the mechanical analysis of carbon fiber wound aluminum
lined high pressure hydrogen storage vessel, this paper
gives the stress formula of carbon fiber wound layer on the
cylinder. The winding tensile force of fibers can be
calculated easily by the stress formula. When the pressure
vessel is in manufacturing, the liner gets the compressing
prestress through controlling the winding tensile force. The
average stress of the liner decreases up to 10% and it can
improve the fatigue life of liner, while the average stress of
fibers increase 1.6% and it never lost effect on the fatigue
life of fibers. This method can improve the fatigue life of
carbon fiber wound aluminum lined pressure vessel[lO].
