Thermal Radiation Calculation in Fire Emergency in Hybrid Hydrogen-Gasoline Fueling Station

Presently, hybrid hydrogen-gasoline fueling stations are being constructed at every region of Japan. The hybrid station is more dangerous than a simple hydrogen station, especially in the case of a fire in the gasoline tank. The fire increases the temperaute of the hydrogen storage tank via thermal radiation. In order to simulate the thermal radiation arising from such a heat source, we first estimate its shape factor. we used Monte Carlo method to estimate the shape factor for our analasis model. We clarified the thermal radiation from the fire and the temperature rise in each tank using Monte Carlo method.
