Learning Objectives:

Tips & Tricks, others have found useful on setting up a hydrogen or hydrogen blends testing setup (i.e. for manufactures, utilities, research labs, etc).  Such as;

  • How to set up the test bench to ensure a stable hydrogen-natural gas blend ratio for appliance testing;
  • Security measures for hydrogen testing (higher probability of leaks, flames/explosion risks, increased NOx from combustion, flame detection, storage);
  • Important tips to keep in mind while conducting the combustion test / recording data.
