Studies focused on the behavior of the hydrogen leakage and diffusion are of great importance for facilitating the large scale application of the hydrogen energy. In this paper, the hydrogen leakage and diffusion in six scenarios which including comparison of different leakage position and different wind effect are analyzed numerically. The studied geometry is derived from the hydrogen refueling station in China. Due to the high pressure in hydrogen storage take, the hydrogen leakage is momentum dominated. The hydrogen volume concentration with the variation of the leakage time in different scenarios is plotted. More importantly, profiles of the flammable gas cloud at the end of the leakage are quantitatively studied. Results indicate that a more narrow space between the leakage hole and the obstacle and a smaller contact area with the obstacle make the profile of the flammable gas cloud more irregular and unpredictable. In addition, results highlight the wind effect on the hydrogen leakage and diffusion. Comparing with scenario which the wind direction consistent with the leakage direction, the opposite wind direction may result in a larger profile of the flammable gas cloud. With wind velocity increasing, the profile of the flammable gas cloud is confined in a smaller range. However, the presence of the wind facilitates the form of the recirculation zone near the obstacle. With an increase of the wind velocity, the recirculation zone moves downward along the obstacle. Thus, the hydrogen accumulation is more prominent near the obstacle. (C) 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
