Investigation of Realistic Fire Scenarios Involving Cryogenic Storage Tanks

Chemical Engineering Transactions
The number of vehicles using or transporting cryogenic fuels such as Liquefied Hydrogen (LH2) or Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) increases fast in the land transportation sector. Does this also entail new risks for instance from a BLEVE? A key to answer this
