Abstract

ial for improving refueling protocols and station operation. This study proposes a Physics-Informed Hybrid Modeling 

Framework that combines thermodynamic interpretability with data-driven calibration. The framework consists of five 

sub-models for supply pressure, flow rate, supply temperature, tank temperature, and tank pressure, preserving governingequation

structures while automatically calibrating 24 empirical parameters using Bayesian optimization. Approximately 

32 months of operational data from a commercial hydrogen refueling station were used, with 4,943 training scenarios 

for parameter calibration and 4,943 validation scenarios for Initial Value Problem (IVP)-based prediction. The framework 

consistently reproduced refueling behavior across all sub-models, showing particularly high accuracy for supply pressure, 

tank temperature, and tank pressure. These results demonstrate its potential as a practical simulation tool for optimizing 

station operation and designing high-speed refueling strategies.
