封闭空间(如燃料电池车车库)中的氢能设施因氢气点火能量低、可燃范围广,存在重大安全隐患。现有监测系统多为被动响应,仅在危险浓度形成后才报警。本研究构建了一套融合计算流体动力学(CFD)、遗传算法(GA)与DeepSets神经代理的计算框架,用于主动优化传感器部署。针对典型50 m × 30 m × 3 m车库,生成了180组工况数据库,涵盖1–150 g/s泄漏速率及3–10 h⁻¹换气率。采用多目标遗传算法优化传感器布局,对比均匀、随机及代理辅助方法。结果表明,该方法在60秒内实现96.1%检测率,盲区缩至0.12%,复合适应度较均匀布局提升约5%。基于DeepSets的代理模型仅需11%的CFD评估次数(降低89%),计算耗时减少两个数量级,且保持近似最优解,误差低于0.01。该方法显著提升检测效能并减少传感器数量,支持可扩展部署,并为数字孪生系统集成实时监测与风险评估奠定基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Hydrogen infrastructure in enclosed environments, such as parking facilities for fuel cell vehicles, presents significant safety challenges due to hydrogen's low ignition energy and wide flammability range. Current monitoring systems are largely reactive, detecting leaks only after hazardous concentrations have formed. This study develops a computational framework for proactive sensor placement optimization by integrating computational fluid dynamics (CFD), genetic algorithm (GA) optimization, and a DeepSets neural surrogate. A CFD database of 180 scenarios was generated for a representative 50 m x 30 m x 3 m garage, covering multiple leak positions, rates (1-150 g/s), and ventilation conditions (ACH = 3-10 per hour). Sensor placement was optimized using a multi-objective GA and compared with uniform, random, and surrogate-assisted approaches. The GA achieved a detection rate of 96.1% within 60 s and reduced blind areas to 0.12%, corresponding to an approximately 5% improvement in composite fitness over a uniform baseline. The DeepSets surrogate reproduced near-optimal configurations with a fitness gap below 0.01 while reducing CFD evaluations by 89% and computational time by two orders of magnitude. Detection performance and spatial coverage remained comparable to the GA, demonstrating that surrogate-assisted optimization can retain solution quality while enabling rapid design iteration. Overall, the results show that CFD-informed optimization improves detection effectiveness and reduces sensor requirements compared to conventional layouts. The proposed framework supports scalable deployment and provides a foundation for integrating optimized sensor networks with digital twin systems for real-time monitoring and risk assessment.
