VR-H2Safe: a VR-based hydrogen vehicle safety & efficiency optimization platform with V2X integration
摘要
Hydrogen vehicles are facing significant challenges, including safety risks in the event of leakage, high costs associated with physical testing, and fuel cell inefficiency under dynamic conditions; to address these concerns, we propose VR-H2Safe, a cyber-physical platform that combines high-fidelity simulation, physics-informed reinforcement learning (RL), and secure vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. Using ANSYS Fluent Large Eddy Simulation (LES) to train real-time predictive models, the platform’s digital twin simulates hydrogen leakage with 92% spatio-temporal correlation compared to high-fidelity LES-CFD benchmarks at key monitoring points. Furthermore, we introduce the H2-LEAK protocol, which extends the SAE J2735 standard with a 128-bit risk vector and blockchain authentication, which provides hazard warnings in less than 2 s with 95% spoofing resistance. In addition, our physics-informed AI system optimizes the fuel cell performance, achieving a 10% increase in energy efficiency and a 58% reduction in thermal violations during hardware verification. The experimental findings of urban, tunnel, and road conditions prove that VR-H2Safe accelerates the process of safety verification and reduces the engineering validation phase from 14 to 10 weeks.
