Modelling strategy Results & discussion Conclusions

3 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
