Evaluation of on-board hydrogen storage methods for hypersonic vehicles [PDF]
Hydrogen is the foremost candidate as a fuel for use in high speed transport. Since any aircraft moving at hypersonic speeds must have a very slender body, means of decreasing the storage volume requirements below that for liquid hydrogen are needed. The
