description The decarbonization of the economy is impacting all activities and sectors worldwide. Transport, particularly aircraft transport, is involved in this endeavor; shifting to H2-powered aircraft is one of the identified options for decarbonization, which implies the need for the effective implementation of complex cryogenic LH<sub>2</sub> storage. Modeling tank storage via a Digital Twin (DTwin) is of paramount relevance to facilitate the design process (gains, operating scenarios) and for the extrapolation of experimental measurements on a particular set-up to future tanks with other materials or dimensions. The present paper contributes to this issue, presenting the model under development as part of the H2ELIOS project and the preliminary model results.
