The hydrogen is stored as liquid similar to a liquid propane tank with vapor that builds on the top. The vapor in the tank is allowed to reach 150 PSI before venting. I am curious how many cubic feet we lose each time the tank vents. 2 inch vent line for 2-5 minutes.

1. Tank holds 2 million cubic feet of hydrogen 2. Tank is outdoors so ambient can be any temperature in this area ( -10F to 100F ) 3. 20 ft of pipe straight up with a 90 as it comes out of the tank and a vent valve. 4. Truck delivery 5. 150 PSI 6. Not sure of the pressure rating but...

I have a large hydrogen storage tank that vents when the pressure exceeds 150 PSI. I am trying to get a rough calculation of how much hydrogen we are losing. I know it is a 2 inch pipe and the pressure drops from 150 PSI to 120PSI. The venting lasts between 2 and 5 minutes. How do I...
