Ammonia is a promising option for hydrogen storage, offering high density, low-pressure and stability. engines are increasingly adopted in vessels like ferries cargo ships, showing promise emissions reduction economic benefits. However, its toxic, flammable, corrosive nature poses safety challenges compared to other fuels. The study identified risks associated with the release, dispersion, hazardous zones of ammonia. A standardised procedure assessing risk ammonia release engine room established. case involves unintentional 299 GT general ship. FLACS-CFD 22.2 employed model leakage under various scenarios. examines influence leak rates (0.05 , 1 kg/s, 10 kgs 50 kg/s), directions (longitual, transverse vertical leaks), hole size (0.05, 0.5, 5 mm) on dispersion behaviour findings indicate that vapour cloud tends accumulate direction leakage, particularly at corner formed by equipment, surrounds outlet ventilation. Two crucial factors affecting considerations toxicity flammable limits It recommended implement effective ventilation reduce harmful effects release. This contributes ongoing efforts adopting as viable alternative fuel maritime sector, contributing reduced airborne exhaust environmental impact.
