Analysis of Buoyancy-Driven Ventilation of Hydrogen from Buildings: Preprint

Building Technologies and Science Center

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

When hydrogen gas is used or stored within a building, as with a hydrogen-powered vehicle parked in a residential garage, any leakage of unignited H2 will mix with indoor air and may form a flammable mixture. One approach to safety engineering relies on buoyancy-driven, passive ventilation of H2 from the building through vents to the outside.
