Abstract
Hydrogen is under discussion as a potentially clean energy source, but its safe usage and handling in enclosed environments remains a critical challenge due to the properties of hydrogen. This work focuses on detecting and monitoring hydrogen concentration in closed spaces to improve safety by developing a sensor network-based leak detection system to prevent of the accumulation of hazardous mixtures. Furthermore, the study details the implementation of a hydrogen sensor network within a container, analysing sensor placement, data collection, and safety improvements. The findings contribute to better risk assessment and enhanced safety protocols in hydrogen storage and usage facilities.
