报告摘要:

 This presentation will provide an overview of the modelling approaches for hydrogen safety adopted by Warwick FIREa multidisciplinary research laboratory for both fundamental and applied research into fire and explosion hazards as well as accidental release of hazardous materials. It will start with a brief introduction to the potential hazards related to hydrogen. This will be followed by a description of our approaches to model spontaneous ignition in pressurised hydrogen release, jet fires, hydrogen deflagration, deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) and detonation. Where appropriate, references will be made to related work elsewhere in the international hydrogen research community as well as ongoing research at Warwick to improve the existing models.
