N1 - Funding Information:
Sandia National Laboratories is a multi-program laboratory managed and operated by National Technology and Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC., a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International, Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA-0003525. This work was also partially supported by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO), Hydrogen Utilization Technology (2013 to 2018). The Materials Testing Institute of Stuttgart is provided with funding for the project from the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) through the “National Innovation Programme for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology.” The programme is coordinated by the NOW GmbH National Organisation Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology.

N2 - Methods to qualify materials for hydrogen service are needed in the global marketplace to enable sustainable, low-carbon energy technologies, such as hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. Existing requirements for qualifying materials are not adequate to support growth of hydrogen technology as well as being inconsistent with the growing literature on the effects of hydrogen on fracture and fatigue. This report documents an internationally coordinated effort to develop a test method for qualifying materials for high-pressure hydrogen fuel system onboard fuel cell electric vehicles. In particular, consistency of fatigue life testing strategies is discussed. Fatigue life tests were conducted at three different institutes in high-pressure gaseous hydrogen (90 MPa) at low temperature (233K) to confirm consistency across distinct testing platforms. The testing campaign includes testing of both smooth and notched axial fatigue specimens at various combinations of pressure and temperature. Collectively these testing results provide insight to the sensitivity of fatigue life testing to important testing parameters such as pressure, temperature and the presence of stress concentrations.
