The Rhino Engineering Group has developed and is patenting a new low inertia, rapid acting explosion relief vent for applications in the hydrogeneconomy, battery energy storage systems and other related sectors in which protection from deflagration hazards is a critical requirement.
Based on the Group’s extensive design, fabrication and installation experience, the new HySafe Vertex vent panel has been developed and tested to demonstrate its reliable and rapid activation, and assured prevention of debris and missile hazards. A design process using outline analytical methods, simplified preliminary testing, before proceeding to extensive explicit dynamics FEA was undertaken ahead of full-scale hydrogen deflagrationtesting.
Satisfactory full-scale experimental substantiation of relief vent performance was obtained, across a wide range of overpressure and impulseconditions, leading to the production of a validated, convenient pressure-impulse curve to assist specifiers and hazard modelling specialists in their selection of the HySafe Vertex panel system.
