TY - CONF A1 - Sarif, Raduan T1 - Digital twin for hydrogen refueling stations: An analytical study for safe and efficient operations N2 - This analytical overview is the initial study in developing the digital sensors twin for the hydrogen refueling station. The research includes a comprehensive analysis of the current literature, refueling protocol, standards, mathematical model, simulation model, and trends in digital twins and H2 technologies. Furthermore, this study has explored the various HRS attributes, such as leakage, temperature, pressure, and hydrogen flow, and identified different use cases of the hydrogen fuel station to build a digital sensor twin. Various real gas equations, such as the Van der Waals and Able-Noble equation of state (EOS), are applied to analyze the key factors and parameters affecting hydrogen and the MATLAB simulation model to validate the key elements and parameters. This study also focuses on identifying and addressing research gaps in hydrogen technology, contributing to advancing hydrogen infrastructure, and supporting the global transition to cleaner energy solutions.

H2 can be used as fuel in fuel cells, storing surplus renewable energy, and as a feedstock in industrial processes. However, H2 faces significant safety challenges during storage and transportation. Accidents due to H2 leakage and explosions raise serious concerns due to its high flammability, rapid diffusion in air, and extremely low ignition energy. To mitigate risks associated with H2 leakages, reliable and automated H2 safety systems are essential for emergency repairs or shutdown. An early response from H2 sensors is crucial for early warning in accidents. The earlier response time of H2 sensors is often constrained by their sensor principle, which is heavily influenced by the sensor material’s properties. This study explores methods for earlier sensor response through predictive algorithms. Specifically, we investigate transient response predictions using a First-Order (FO) model and propose improvements through the First-Order with early response and the First-Order with adapted early response model. Both models can predict the stable value of the H2 sensor response from a small time window, which is 70.89% and 83.72% earlier, respectively, than the time required for the sensor hardware to reach it physically. The model’s performance is evaluated by calculating the fitting error with a 2 % threshold. Our current research lays the groundwork for future advancements in real-time sensor response predictions for hydrogen leakage.
