Hydrogen Explosions

Objectives

  • Develop methodology for evaluation of hydrogen explosion phenomena
  • Scan existing experimental database on hydrogen fires and ignition
  • Support the network activities by providing input on hydrogen explosion hazards, for various release scenarios

Description of work

Sub-task 10.1. Scan data for SBEP

All WP9 partners will work to prepare a review of data available. Sources of information will be the scientific literature, previous EC-hydrogen-related projects (EIHP, EIHP2) as well as the data of partners, who are willing to share their data within the network. These data will be reviewed and agreed upon at the WP10 coordination meeting. Selected data will be submitted to HySafe-SBEP. All partners are involved.

Sub-task 10.2. Proposals for tests / other activities

Partners will work on formulation of proposals for future experimental work on hydrogen explosions and submission to WP19. These will include cases of confined explosions (FZK, WUT), semi-confined and vented explosions (HSE/HSL, UNIPI, GexCon, TNO), and unconfined explosions (Fh-ICT and GexCon)

Sub-task 10.3. Detail future work.

All partners will perform a critical assessment of WP10 progress using input from WP7 to detail future activities.
