Rhino HySafe’s testing of innovative hydrogen explosion relief panels is a success

Rhino HySafe has completed full-scale explosion testing as part of its Project UFER.Following successful design and simulation tests, the specialist subsidiary of Rhino Engineering Group conducted the physical, full-scale testing of its innovative new range of hydrogen explosion relief panels at RAF Spadeadam in Cumbria, UK.The performance of the panels during testing exceeded HySafe’s expectations.The full-scale tests of the ultra-fast explosion relief (UFER) product showed that the hydrogen explosion panels opened faster than flame-front arrival and promptly transitioned to a fully open configuration. The swift action of the panels allowed the flame-front and combustion products to outflow freely.Additionally, once the tests were carried out, HySafe substantiated the design of the structure cassette and related fixings by demonstrating complete retention of these panel…
