In the context of the transition to a hydrogen-based economy, the assessment of the risks associated with this energy vector is becoming a priority for industrial safety. The unique properties of hydrogen, its high reactivity and high burning rate, require the use of advanced numerical simulation tools, capable of providing highly accurate predictions of the effects of explosive phenomena. This paper presents methodological contributions aimed at optimizing the numerical models used for the analysis of explosions ...

As is well known, hydrogen exhibits a wide flammability range, low ignition energy, and high diffusivity, which create significant explosion risks in storage and handling facilities. Therefore, the development of effective methods and devices for the detection and control of hydrogen explosions is essential to ensure operational safety. This paper presents the development and experimental validation of an explosion control device intended for hydrogen storage systems. The proposed device is based on an optical ult...
