천연가스는 가솔린에 비하여 에너지 밀도가 매우 낮아 천연가스 차량의 경우 약 24.8 MPa로 압축된 압축천연가스(CNG)를 이용하기 때문에 고압을 얻기 위하여 다단계 압축이 요구될 뿐 아니라 안정성에 문제가 많다. 이런 이유로 비교적 낮은 압력에서 저장할 수 있는 흡착천연가스에 관심을 갖게 되었다. 천연가스의 저장에 용이한 매질을 개발하여 3.5 MPa에서 CNG와 에너지 밀도가 유사하고, 같은 용적의 가솔린에 비하여 1/4 수준의 운전거리를 확보하는 것이 현재의 목표이다. 본 총설에서는 흡착천연가스(ANG) 저장을 위한 탄소매질의 개발현황, 매질의 특성 및 실용화를 위하여 진행되고 있는 내용을 간략하게 소개하고 몇 가지 필요한 제언을 한다.

Recently, an automobile market used to natural gas has emerged as fast-growing as the several countries, who holds abundant natural fuel resources, has promoted to supply the national agency for an automobile car. LNG fuel vessel is more efficient in another way as the energy density is high, but it requires a high technology and investment to maintain extreme low temperature. CNG fuel vessel are relatively low-cost alternative to LNG, but poorly economical in terms of energy density as well as showing safety issues associated with compressed pressure. The development of adsorbed natural gas (ANG) has emerged as one of potential solutions. Therefore, it is desirable to reduce the weight of vessel by applying light-weighed a composite carbon fiber in order to response to the regulation of $CO_2$ emission. Herein, this study make the prototype ANG vessel not only based on the optimal design and analysis of material characteristic but also based on the shape design, and it suggest a new type for the composite carbon fiber vessel which verified functional test. Moreover, the detail shape design is analyzed by a finite element analysis, and its verifies the ANG vessel.

The development of adsorbed natural gas (ANG) has emerged as one of potential solutions. It is desirable to reduce the weight of vessel by applying light-weighed a composite carbon fiber in order to response to a egulation of $CO_2$ emission. Through understanding of a composite carbon fiber, and material characteristic of a composite carbon fiber is required in order for better application of a reduction of weight and an analysis of material characteristic. Herein, this study suggest the composite carbon fiber vessel applied to the characteristic of carbon fiber, and it decides the preliminary shape based on the test of material characteristic for ANG vessel applied to a composite carbon fiber, and its basic shape calculate through on the netting theory. Moreover, the detail shape design is analyzed by a finite element analysis, and in the stage of detail sahp design and analysis of stress was performed on the typical shape using a finite element analysis, and the result of preliminary design was verified.
