The density of hydrogen is much lower than that of air (the density of air is 1.293 kg/m 3 under the standard conditions of 1 atmospheric pressure and 0 °C). In this case, hydrogen diffuses upward rapidly under the action of air buoyancy after leakage, and it does not easily accumulate to form a combustible gas mixture, which is conducive to its

The storage area consists of two methanol storage tanks, three gas-diesel storage tanks, two hydrogen storage tanks, three CNG gas tanks, and a long-tube trailer for hydrogen transport.
When an LNG storage tank leaks, the positioning of the tank leak location can help managers to take safety measures on time. From the simulation of the LNG tank leakage (Fig. 23), it can be seen that the LNG slowly diffused downward after leaking into the insulation layer. When the liquid touched the bottom of the insulation

The tank system includes the tank, underground connected piping, underground ancillary equipment, and any containment system. The federal UST
The leakage of combustible gas in the nuclear hydrogen production system is a key hypothetical phenomenon in safety design [ 41 ]. It should be noted that this study assumes that the nuclear power plant is located in the downwind direction of the gas storage tank, that is, to the east of the gas storage tank.

Abstract. Molten salt is widely used as a heat transfer and thermal storage medium in concentrated solar power plants. This paper mainly focuses on the migration and phase change characteristics of molten salt leaking from a high-temperature storage tank to the thermal-steady porous foundation materials. The effects of the different conditions
The leakage time of hydrogen can be divided into steady-state leakage and transient leakage. Steady-state leakage shows the low leakage speed and long duration (leakage time longer than 10 min). Steady-state leakage is normally in the presence of storage tank or pipe eyelet leakage and it is difficult to find out.

Hydrogen filled the space within 40 s with an average concentration of 1% vol; the hydrogen concentration reached 1.3% vol. in the vicinity of the leakage source.

Due to its small molecular size, the construction materials of storage tanks, pipes, and valves can suffer from detrimental effects after being exposed to hydrogen for a long period [4, 5]. When leakage happens, there are three flow states of the hydrogen jet-flow, namely subsonic [6, 7], critical-state, and under-expanded jets [[8], [9], [10]].
