Metrology to support standardisation of hydrogen fuel sampling for heavy duty hydrogen transport

Annotation in Czech

The specific objectives of the project are: 1. To develop three reference methods/systems based on new hardware for interfacing relevant nozzle geometries for hydrogen heavy duty applications. This includes addressing methods for both gaseous and particulate phases. In addition, method comparison with existing methods for sampling for light duty applications will be documented to demonstrate equivalence or identified bias. 2. To develop methodologies for the validation of sampling systems. This includes method validation, including evidence of the impact of physical parameters (e.g. pressure and flow) on sampling representativeness. Gas sampling validation includes accurate gas contamination and an assessment of the recovery yield. The system will be laboratory based for flexibility in fluid physical parameter control and gas composition. 3. To develop guidelines for the evaluation of the uncertainty of the sampling and for the sampling representativeness including the minimum sample size (target uncertainties of 10 %), and sample volume/gravimetric requirements by performing repeated samplings under varying conditions. 4. To support the standardisation of the safe heavy-duty sampling of hydrogen: including the venting of hydrogen, risk assessment and the training of stakeholders. 5. To contribute to the standards development work of the technical committees CEN/TC 268 and ISO/TC 197 to ensure that the outputs of the project are aligned with their needs, communicated quickly to those developing the standards and to those who should use them, and in a form that can be incorporated into the standards at the earliest opportunity.
