A hydrogen refueling system including a hydrogen center enclosure fluidly connected to a dispenser by a supply pipe, a first portion of the supply pipe disposed within the hydrogen center enclosure and a second portion of the supply pipe extending between the hydrogen center enclosure and the dispenser, a cooling system having a first cooling circuit for cooling the supply pipe and a second cooling circuit for cooling the second portion of the supply pipe, and a controller, where the second cooling circuit has a return path fluidly connected to a forward path, where the second cooling circuit is thermally connected to the second portion of the supply pipe, and the controller initiates cooling of the supply line by the forward path or return path of the second cooling circuit when the temperature of the supply line is higher than a threshold value. |
