Abstract

The extensive usage of fossil fuels has caused significant environmental pollution, climate change and energy crises. The significant advantages of hydrogen, such as cleanliness, high efficiency, and a wide range of sources, make it quite promising. Hydrogen is prone to material damage, which may lead to leakage. High-pressure leaking hydrogen is highly susceptible to spontaneous combustion due to its combustion characteristics, which may cause jet fire or explosion accidents, resulting in serious casualties and property damage. This paper presents a detailed review of the research progress on hydrogen leak diffusion characteristics, leak spontaneous combustion mechanisms and material hydrogen damage…
