A hydrogen piping explosion test device considering soil environment and defects of piping and non-piping elements
By designing a hydrogen pipeline explosion test device that takes into account the soil environment and defects in pipeline/non-pipeline components, the problem that existing devices cannot simulate the soil constraint of real buried pipeline failure was solved. This enabled the assessment of the multi-factor explosion damage law and safety of hydrogen pipeline network systems and provided detailed experimental data.

AI Technical Summary
Existing hydrogen pipeline explosion test equipment cannot simulate the complex soil-constrained environment after the failure of real buried pipelines, and cannot effectively study the fragmentation morphology and failure mode of defective pipelines and non-pipeline components under explosive loads.
A hydrogen pipeline explosion test device was designed, taking into account soil environment and pipeline/non-pipeline component defects. It includes a gas distribution and intake system, a simulated detonation pipeline system, an environmental simulation chamber system, and a comprehensive monitoring system. It can simulate different soil slopes, explosion source distances, and pipeline defects, and observe the physical parameters and flame morphology during the explosion process.
This study enabled a quantitative investigation of the explosion behavior of hydrogen pipeline systems under complex soil constraints, comprehensively covering the explosion damage patterns and safety assessments of various pipeline defects and non-pipeline components, and providing reliable experimental data support.
