New government, the market for stationary fuel cell systems in domestic is expected to expand in line with the policy for expanding new and renewable energy. In order to promote and expand the domestic market for stationary fuel cell systems, it is required to do research and develop for cost reduction and efficiency improvement technologies through the localization of BOP. In this study, the safety performance including the power consumption, flow rate, noise and air-tightness of the domestic fuel booster blower and the foreign fuel booster blower was evaluated and the performance improvement of the domestic blower was confirmed. As a result of the power consumption measurement and the flow rate according to the back pressure of the A company 2nd prototype and B company, the values were 73 W, 27 LPM, and 55 W, 25 LPM. These results are attributed to the improvement of performance through design changes such as CAM angle and diaphragm material.

Recently, hydrogen has gained considerable attention as an eco-friendly fuel, which helps in reducing carbon dioxide content. Specifically, there is a growing interest in vehicles powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, which is spotlighted as an environmental-friendly alternative. A hydrogen transport system, fuel cell system, fuel supply system, power management system, and hydrogen storage system are key parts of a hydrogen fuel cell truck. In this study, a hydrogen storage system is built and analyzed. The expansion length of the storage vessel at maximum operating pressure (87.5 MPa) was calculated with ABAQUS, and then the optimized system was designed and built. The leak and bubble tests were performed on the built storage system. The leakage of the system was measured to be under 5 cc/hr. Hence, it can be used as a research test for the safety evaluation of leading systems of hydrogen fuel-powered commercial vehicles.

Since 2014, the Korean government has begun distributing LPG pipelines and LPG tankers to mountainous or island areas where it is difficult to open urban gas supply chains. When installing LPG supply facilities at village level and county level, it supplied consumers with 10 times higher quasi-low pressure (25 kPa to 100 kPa) than conventional gas supply pressure, increasing the risk of gas accident. Due to the pressure that is 10 times higher than the conventional gas supply pressure, large amounts of gas are released at a faster rate when leaked. In order to secure safety of quasi-low-pressure gas pipes, excess flow valves for quasi-low-pressure gas pipes are not developed and are not supplied in Korea. Therefore, Korea Gas Safety Corporation is investigating the performance standards and products of the excess flow valves in order to localize the excess flow valves.

Consequence model has been suggested to evaluate consequence of city gas accident considering actual situation. Through event tree analysis(ETA), probable accidents were summarized and listed. Then release rate was calculated both sonic and subsonic conditions. Among city gas accidents, fire damage is the dominant one and mainly discussed; fatality, burning injury, and damage to building were estimated using the consequence model suggested. With an appropriate conditions, calculating total cost by accident was suggested.

Hydrogen is difficult to accurately measure the amount of charge due to sudden temperature changes and pressure rise when charging the vehicle. In order to construct a hydrogen infrastructure, it is important to precisely measure the amount of charge that can be a sensitive issue in commercial transactions. In this study, the accuracy of metering of domestic hydrogen stations was evaluated as a study for metering management of hydrogen dispenser. For the experiment, we constructed metering system using master meter method and measured the flow rate in the actual hydrogen vehicle charging environment. As a result of error occurred about 10% on average, and the hydrogen loss per one charge was found to be up to 60g.

The purpose of this paper is to find optimum vent port of the booth for gas explosion experiment. Also, it is to understand the safety of the booth for explosion experiment which is installed to let the trainees for legal education which is managed by IGTT(Institute of gas technology training) blow the riskiness of explosion. Since the booth for gas explosion experiment is a confined space, we used the exhaust model for indoor explosion. As the result, it was safety calculated when the amount of leaking gas was close to the maximum of explosion limit on the explosion experiment.

The objective of this study is to develop and commercialize an on-board fuel storage system for CNG vehicles. A type 4 vessel is made of resin-impregnated continuous filament windings on a polyamide (PA6) liner. In particular, this study localized the PA6 liner's fabrication and development. To analyze the filament winding, a specimen test was performed, and the results were verified values obtained using finite element analysis. In this study, the filament winding and fibers were optimized for a 207 bar composite cylinder in a compressed natural gas vehicle.

In accordance with the revision of the Enforcement Regulations of the High-Pressure Gas Safety Management Act in February 2021, from August 27, 2021, the operation status of safety devices such as gas leak detection and alarm devices, emergency shut-off devices and flame detectors installed at hydrogen vehicle charging stations can be monitored in real time. It is transmitted and operated by the computer system managed by Korea Gas Safety Corporations. We intend to share the results of statistical analysis of abnormal signals that have occurred along with the results of the monitoring system construction so that they can be used for the safety management of hydrogen refueling stations, and to seek future safety management directions.
