CONTENTS • Introduction & Scope • Description of CEA Garage Test 5 • Modelling strategy • Results & discussion • Conclusions
Intro & Scope • The Research Committee activities of IA-HySafe include: • the continuation of SBEPs first introduced within HySafe EC-NoE • SBEPs to • validate, inter-compare and further develop existing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes and models in predicting hydrogen related release, dispersion and combustion phenomena • Focus in the present work: • Understanding and prediction of the dispersion / accumulation of hydrogen releases in confined spaces under low release conditions
CEA Garage Test-5 Re = 115
Results - Concentrations P1N3, z = 2.37 m
Results - Concentrations P1N2, z = 2.135 m
Results - Concentrations P1N1, z = 1.9 m
Results - Concentrations M1N5, z = 1.575 m
Results - Concentrations M1N4, z = 1.26 m
Results - Concentrations M1N3, z = 0.945 m
Results - Concentrations M1N2, z = 0.63 m
Results - Concentrations M1N1, z = 0.315 m
CONCLUSIONS • Relatively good predictions of He concentrations • Significant reduction in CPU time with low Mach number solvers • Significant effect of extending the computational domain far enough beyond the confined space opening.
