  • Publication number: 20240151361
    Abstract: A hydrogen supply method includes a two-side heat exchange mode in which both introducing a second fluid into a hydrogen storage part after the second fluid exchanges heat with a first fluid in a second heat exchanger in a state in which a compressor is driven to compress the first fluid and introducing the second fluid into the hydrogen storage part after the second fluid is heated or cooled in a thermal device are performed. The method also includes a one-side heat exchange mode in which one of introducing the second fluid into the hydrogen storage part after the second fluid exchanges heat with the first fluid in the second heat exchanger in a state in which the compressor is driven to compress the first fluid and introducing the second fluid into the hydrogen storage part after the second fluid is heated or cooled in the thermal device is performed.

  • Publication number: 20240076224
    Abstract: A molding method for a cover window includes: locally heating a peripheral portion of a glass substrate around a central portion of the glass substrate to a temperature of about 610° C. to about 670° C., forming a cover window by pressing the glass substrate, and annealing and cooling the cover window. Accordingly, a cover window in which each of edges has an outwardly convex curved surface through a glass substrate may be formed. In addition, the surface roughness of a cover window formed through a glass substrate may be improved.
