Abstract

Hydrogen refueling stations that use compressed hydrogen at high pressure provide safety distances between facilities in order to ensure safety. Most accidents occurring in hydrogen stations are accidental leaks. When a leak occurs, various types of ignition sources generate a jet flame. Therefore, the analysis of leaked gas diffusion and jet flame due to high pressure hydrogen leakage is one of the most important factor for setting the safety distance. In this study, the leakage accidents that occur in the hydrogen refueling station operated in high pressure environment are simulated for various leakage source sizes. The results of this study will be used as a reference for the future safety standards.

수소를 고압으로 압축하여 사용하는 수소충전소는 안전 확보를 위해 설비간의 안전거리를 규정하고 있다. 수소 충전소에서 발생하는 사고 중 대부분의 사고는 누출사고이며, 누출 시 점화로 인해 제트화염이 생성된다. 고압의 수소 누출로 인한 가스 확산 및 제트화염의 해석은 안전거리 설정에 가장 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 고압의 환경에서 운용되는 수소충전소에서 발생할 수 있는 누출사고를 대비한 안전관리 규정 도출을 위하여 누출원 크기별 누출조건을 모사하고 위험거리 등을 파악하여 향후 안전기준 제정 시 참고자료로 활용하고자 한다.
