Zusammenfassung:Currently, large-volume type IV composite vessel tube trailers garner significant attention and development within the hydrogen energy storage and transportation industry due to their cost-effectiveness and practicality. This study aims to assess the static strength and sealing performance of the boss structure in order to optimize its design. Firstly, a model of the mouth structure of type IV vessels was constructed to analyze the stress distributions in the boss and liner. Subsequently, innovative boss and liner structures were developed based on the primary mouth structure to investigate the impact of geometric dimensions through finite element analysis. This study revealed that changes in geometrical dimensions led to significant alterations in the stresses of the plastic liner in comparison to metallic bosses. Building upon these findings, the structural safety and sealing performance of the boss and liner structure were further validated through finite element analysis. The outcomes of this research can serve as a reference for guiding the structural design of bosses and aiding in the development of hydrogen storage vessels.
