Gasoline-powered automobiles are being converted to operate on gaseous fuels such as H2 or CH4. These fuels are commonly stored in containers located in the trunk of the car. Potential leakage of these gaseous fuels into the passenger compartment of the vehicle constitutes a safety threat. Definitive experiments were performed to identify the explosion hazards, establish venting criteria and obviate general safeguards for H2 or CH4 fueled passenger vehicles.
