Ford Motor Company, BMW, and the Fuel Cell Initiative are your sources? Laughable.
"A big sound, and that's about it"? Observe real compressed hydrogen combusting in a real-world scenario, sparked by a tiny flame:  "BMW conducted numerous crash tests to see what would happen if the hydrogen tank was punctured or damaged. Their engineers report the liquid hydrogen dissipated harmlessly into the air." Did they also conduct numerous crash tests to see the effect of fire on their carbon tanks? Still looking, I know it's here somewhere... There is no material in the world which is strong enough to prevent the explosion of a burning 10,000 psi tank of hydrogen. Period. |
