Introduction and OverviewOverall Goal To reduce or eliminate the safety related barriers to the widespread commercial adoption of hydrogen energy systems through a collaborative program of: Risk Management (QRA, modeling, mitigation) Experimental researchand testing; and Information dissemination
Scope 2004-2010 Fundamental Data Modeling Component Testing Mitigation
Task 31: Safety November 2010 – October 2013 Barrier test Fire Explosion Methanol Fire Explosion H2 Vehicle Refuelling • Four subtasks laying foundation for codes & standards: • Physical Effects Knowledge Gaps • Storage Systems & Materials • Early Markets Risks and Hazards • Knowledge Analysis Dissemination & Use
Task 31 continues Task 19 (2004-2010) Logical progression of Task 19 Continues to fill knowledge gaps/database Further develops risk informed criteria and simplified methodologies More focused on real systems (early markets) Expanded to stationary systems Products that are focused on stakeholder groups (CDO’s, approval authorities, insurers, public and system developers)
Task Management Operating Agent – Bill Hoagland (Canada and United States) Subtask A, Physical phenomena Pierre Benard (Canada) Subtask B, Storage/Materials Issues John Khalil (UTRC) Subtask C, Early Markets Andrei Tchouvelev (Canada) Subtask D, Knowledge DisseminationSteven Weiner (United States)
Subtask A Physical Phenomena and Knowledge Gaps: Outflow and dispersion Gaseous phase properties (Surface effects : Experiments and theory, Turbulence, Crosswinds and jet properties) Liquid phase properties Consequences and ignition Auto-ignition Ignition modeling Thermal radiation: experiments and further development of engineering correlations Overpressure and explosions Quantitative Tools CFD Modelling
Subtask B Storage Systems and Materials Safety Issues Safety issues arising from solid state storage (metal hydrides, chemical storage, adsorption) Materials issues with respect to pressurized and low temperature storage (liquid, cryo-compression) Sensors/leak detection
Subtask C Early markets hazard analysis and risk characterization Failure statistics Further development in safety assessment and hazard analysis Systems safety analysis of forklift facilities, portable applications, distribution infrastructure (pipelines)
Subtask D Knowledge analysis, dissemination and global relevance: Safety knowledge tools serve to disseminate information on the safe use and handling of hydrogen Enhance databases and websites that have been integral work products and accomplishments of Task 19. Develop collaborations and tools to facilitate applications of hydrogen and hydrogen systems. Support work product development in the other subtasks.

Planned Work Products Demonstrate International Leadership by: Establishing IEA HIA (Task 31) endorsed risk-informed methodology for CDO’s to use in assessing risk and evaluating mitigation measures Establish a database that has been vetted by the technical community (refereed literature) Position Papers/White Papers Forums/Workshops 6/5/2014
Desired Outcome:Technically sound and credible basis forRisk Informed Codes and Standards That: Are not unnecessarily restrictive Allow informed choices of design Most economic mitigation measures, equipment and safety factors Can be modified to meet national requirements Facilitate approvals, permits and insurability
