Review of the Current Understanding of Hydrogen Jet Fires and the Potential Effect on PFP Performance
August 01, 2021
The fast-developing energy transition, with a target of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, will include a significant expansion in the use of hydrogen. The roles for hydrogen being considered include energy transportation and storage, land transport, maritime propulsion, domestic heating and ‘hard to de-carbonise’ industry. In gaseous form, due to its low density, hydrogen tends to be stored at high pressure, often measured in 100s of bar, though the pressure range will depend on the application.
