  1. Recent and future research for the fire safety of hydrogen-fueled vehicles in JARI Appearance of Hy-SEF

  2. Recent and future research for the fire safety of hydrogen-fueled vehicles in JARI Most of recent studies for the hydrogen fuelled vehicles in Japan are closely related to the national projects aiming promotion of commercialization of fuel cell vehicles. The project is mainly organized by NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization). JARI plays an important role related to NEDOproject. Research and data acquisition activities for safety of hydrogen fuelled vehicle are extensively carried out in JARI. Appearance of Hy-SEF

  3. Content Focus on hydrogen fire safety in JARI • Recent study • Safety assessment of feared items in firefighting • Soundness and behavior of the storage system exposed to discharge water • The spread of fire from adjoining vehicles to a HFCV • Validation of the safety standard of a HFCV • Development of a burner for localized fire test and validation • Future study • Study on accident correspondence of HFCV

  4. Content Focus on hydrogen fire safety in JARI • Recent study • Safety assessment of feared items in firefighting • Soundness and behavior of the storage system exposed to discharge water • The spread of fire from adjoining vehicles to a HFCV • Validation of the safety standard of a HFCV • Development of a burner for localized fire test and validation • Future study • Study on accident correspondence of HFCV

  5. Soundness and behavior of the storage system exposed to discharge water • In fire fighting activity for the vehicle fire, if water is used to extinguish fire, several fears are considered. • Forexample • The weakening of the tankby heat shock. • The reclosing of TPRD. • We investigate the study to confirm the soundness of the tank in such situation.

  6. Bonfire test E xposure time ① PRD Activated time ② 5minitute (Not pressurized) ③ 8minitute(Notpressurized) Test process for evaluation on intensity of tanks New tank Natural cooling Burst test Water Cooling timing: A tank was cooled by water spray After PRD activated.

  7. Internal pressure and PRD temperature with water no cooling The tank cooled by water spray after PRD activated PRD activated PRD activated The reclosing of PRD Emergency ventvalve opened PRD reclosed by water spray.

  8. Fire exposure time - Burst pressure Burst Screw damage Burst Screw damage Crack in Liner This point was conducted on the fire exposure burst test of tank without PRD. Bursting pressure of water cooling cases are equal to or greater than that of air cooling cases. It means water cooling does not damage the tank.

  9. Conclusion The experiments clarified • The spraying water during activation of the fused metal type PRD may result in closure of the PRD. • But the spraying water is useful for maintaining the strength of CFRP composite tanks.

  11. The spread of fire from adjoining vehicles to a HFCV • September 12,11:40-12:00 • Session 2A: Risk Assessment – Safety • Paper ID No.153 Fire test on juxtaposed gasoline vehicle and HFCV Multiple-HFCV fire test assuming a car carrier

  12.

  13. Development of a burner for localized fire test and validation Temperature -time profiles for a localized fire test

  14. Development of a burner for localized fire test and validation Propane burner for localized fire test IR image of cyliner surface Flame temperature and pressure

  15.

  16. Workflow after HFCV collision JAMA-JARI extracted a necessary problem after the collisions and fire of HFCV.

  17. Future research (1) • Did PRD activate? • Method to confirm the activation of PRD • Is there hydrogen leak? • Relationship of the minimum audible pressure and flow rate for hydrogen leakage • Can you stop leak? • Study of the technique to stop hydrogen leakage • Method to identify of the leak point from remoteness • Can you move vehicle or rescue ever if you not stop a leak? • Relationship between hydrogen diffusion and wind speed • Safety evaluation of the high pressure pipe cutting

  18. Future research (2) • ReleaseorFilling at the public road? • Method to identify the soundness of the vessel • Safety method to release the gas of the vessel • How should we approach vehicle after crush or fire ? • Method to narrow a safe distance • Explosion direction of a weakened vessel • Etc… The goal of these research is2013Y.

  19. Conclusions The research in JARI is considered about conditions to be encountered in real world situation widely. It is desired that these acquired data are applied effectively to develop global safety strategies.
