Abstract: | Hydrogen is a renewable and clean source of energy, and it is a good replacement for the current fossil fuels. Nevertheless,
hydrogen should be stored in high-pressure reservoirs to have sufficient energy. An in-house code is developed to numerically
simulate the release of hydrogen from a high-pressure tank into ambient air with more accuracy. Real gas models are used to
simulate the flow since high-pressure hydrogen deviates from ideal gas law. Beattie–Bridgeman and Abel Noble equations are
applied as real gas equation of state. A transport equation is added to the code to calculate the concentration of the hydrogen–air
mixture after release. The uniqueness of the code is to simulate hydrogen in air release with the real gas model. Initial
tank pressures of up to 70 MPa are simulated. |
