This paper presents simulation and analysis of three-dimensional, transient, coupled heat and mass transferprocess in a multi-corrugated reactor filled with metal hydride MmNi6.4Al0.4 during hydrogen absorption. The model isvalidated, the average bed temperature of cylindrical reactor at 30 bar supply pressure showed good agreement with theexperimental data reported in the literature. Hydrogen storage performance of the system is numerically analysed byimplementation of corrugation, varying the tube pitch layout and operating parameters such as hydrogen supplypressure in the system. Further, the effects of supply hydrogen pressure and cooling fluid temperature are also presented.
