T6.1. Chapter on LH2 safety - Handbook

Aim of the chapter on safety of liquid and cryo-compressed hydrogen is to

provide up-to-date knowledge on:

▪ State-of-the-art of LH2 technology.

▪ Phenomena relevant to safety of LH2 systems and infrastructure.

▪ Safety measures and engineering solutions.

▪ Regulations, Codes and Standards.

The chapter will include the knowledge generated within PRESLHY and the

knowledge already present in the Handbook of Hydrogen Safety but spread

throughout several chapters.

MS25 ToC of Handbook of Hydrogen Safety: chapter on LH2 safety, M12

(HySafe, UU).

D6.1 Handbook of Hydrogen Safety: chapter on LH2 safety, M34 (HySafe):

under development.



T6.2. Guidelines for safe design and…

The guidelines for safe design and operation of LH2 infrastructure:

▪ Focus on practical aspects of the commissioning, operation and

maintenance of LH2 systems and infrastructure.

▪ Address the areas where specific RCS have not been established yet or are

not suitable for use in public space.

▪ Include the innovative strategies and engineering solutions developed in

PRESLHY with a structure and format resembling established standards.

MS26 ToC of Guidelines for safe design and operation of LH2 infrastructure,

M14 (AL, UU). A time plan for the development of the report sections was

prepared by AL and presented at the 3rd project meeting.

D6.2 Guidelines for safe design and operation of LH2 infrastructures, M35

(AL): under development.



T6.3. Recommendations for RCS

▪ The project results will further the development of performance

based, risk informed and internationally harmonised standards.

▪ The relevant parts of the developed guidelines, including the

engineering correlations, will be extracted and expressed in concise

language for use by SDOs.

MS30 Discussion draft of recommendations for RCS, M28 (UU). A

meeting will be organised in M28 to discuss and refine the draft of the

recommendations for the RCS.

D6.3 Recommendations for RCS, M35 (AL).



T6.4. Engineering correlations and tools

▪ The unique experimental data generated throughout the project

duration will be employed to:

− Develop and validate analytical and numerical tools;

− Generate engineering correlations for calculation of hazard distances and

parameters.

▪ A unified template to describe into detail the correlations and tools

was developed and distributed in M11.

▪ A list of the envisaged engineering correlations and tools was

prepared. It currently includes 21 tools, distributed as follow within

the technical WPs:

− 8 tools associated to release and mixing phenomena (WP3);

− 5 tools for ignition (WP4);

− 8 tools for combustion (WP5).

(1/2)



T6.4. Engineering correlations and tools

▪ A 1st version of 2 of the 21 correlations, validated against

experiments available in literature, was developed by UU in M16:

− The similarity law for concentration decay in momentum jets;

− Hazard distances for jet fires.

▪ A final version of correlations shall include validation against the

experiments performed within PRESLHY (M22).

MS29 “Detailed description of novel engineering tools for LH2 version

1”, M24 - Under development.

D6.5 “Detailed description of novel engineering correlations for LH2

safety, version 2”, M35. This report is the final version of MS29.

▪ The White Paper analyses LH2 systems and infrastructure’s

role and deployment in the FCH sector, particularly with

regards to the mobility sector, and their potential benefits.

▪ It includes aspects of general economics and safety, paying

attention to comparisons with CGH2 systems to highlight LH2

advantages where relevant.

T6.6. Dissemination conference

The dissemination conference is the culmination event of the

project and it will include presentation of PRESLHY key results

and outputs to the H2 safety community.

➢Duration: 1 or 2 days;

➢Envisaged attendance: about 100 stakeholders;

➢Speakers: international experts within and beyond the consortium.

Justification of the use of resources

The use of resources is mostly in line with the planning for the

first and second half of the project.

Overall, all the objectives and goals set for WP6 in the first 18

months of the project were achieved in time. No major deviations or

delays are envisaged.

There were not relevant problems occurring within WP6 during the

first 18 months of the project.

Ongoing activities and further planning

The activities and strategies for dissemination, communication and

exploitation of the knowledge, data and results developed during

PRESHLY project were defined in D6.6 and updated in D6.7.
