Background in Hydrogen Technologies
Modeling
WINS personnel have applied advanced models of dispersion and thermal and overpressure effects from release of combustible gases to establish clearance distances for siting of the Liquid Hydrogen Storage Tank at a Hydrogen Reforming Plant. The adjoining picture shows the thermal effect envelopes for siting a liquid hydrogen Storage tank at a Hydrogen Reforming Plant.
System design, component siting and code compliance assessment is carried out quantitatively using WINS' HyQuantras (Hydrogen Quantitative Risk Assessment) software to compute the radiative heat flux from an ignited hydrogen release. Risk is expressed in terms of the location-specific individual risk (LSIR) which indicate the risk at a particular location, and Potential loss of Life (PLL) which is a measure of the group or societal risk.
The quantitative risk assessment capabilities can be accessed for hydrogen filling stations using a Web-deployed virtual filling station that permits the user to define a site, establish safe distances according to applicable codes and standards and then apply HyQuantras for risk assessment.
