Potential consequences. The severity of a hazardous phenomenon is characterized by a potential effect, itself characterized by several threshold distances e.g. explosion overpressure threshold of 20 mbar reached at a distance of 5 m from the FCH application. Depending on the regulation in place locally, each country may use different values of thresholds or even parameters to characterize the potential effects of a hazardous phenomenon. NOTE: it is not the intent of HyResponse project to provide harmonized harm criteria or thresholds to characterize the potential effects of a hazardous phenomenon. Different tools and different harm criteria have been used in this deliverable. It is of the responsibility of stakeholder to adapt them to reach their reference standard in their own country.
2.4.1. Blowdown time of pressurized tanks The blow down time can be calculated using engineering tool available within Cyber Laboratory (xxxx://x0xx.xx/cyber-laboratory/44).
2.4.2. Leak from FCH system The envelopes of the flammability limits from hydrogen jet release can be calculated using engineering tool available within Cyber Laboratory (xxxx://x0xx.xx/cyber-laboratory/44).
2.4.3. Thermal effects The flame length and separation distances from jet fires can be calculated using engineering tool available within Cyber Laboratory (xxx.x0xx.xx/xxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx). Two examples are provided below to characterize the potential effects of a hydrogen jet fire on a human. As shown in Table 2, the harm criteria for jet fire may be characterized as a function of the temperature degrees of the flame for a given exposure period1, while, as shown in Table 3, it may also be described as a function of the thermal flux per square meter (kW/m2) or with a notion of time (kW/m2)4/3s. Table 2: Harm criteria and corresponding separation distances for jet fire1 Harm levels “No harm” limit “Pain” threshold “Death” limit Criteria 70 oC for any duration 115 oC for 5 min exposure 309 oC for 20 s exposure, causing third degree burn Separation distances 3.5× FL 3× FL 2× FL Note: FL stands for Flame Length (m) Table 3: Example of threshold effect values on humans Thresholds of thermal effects kW/m² (kW/m2)4/3s Irreversible effects 3 600 Lethal effects 5 1000 Significant lethal effects 8 1800
2.4.4. Overpressure effects The overpressure effects from an explosion can be characterized by several thresholds depending on the target i.e. human or structures. The Table 4 and 5 provide an example of threshold effect values for human...
Potential consequences. Classroom behavior is left to the dis- cretion of the professor. Some con- sequences may include, but are not limited to: disciplinary action by the University, review of academic stand- ing, administrative drop from a course, course failure, additional or make-up work, negative reference checks resulting in difficulty finding employment.
Potential consequences. Potential consequences for Student violations include, but are not limited to; Student conference, loss of email privileges, Parent conference, loss of Internet privileges, cancellations [temporary or permanent] of the privilege to use the Computer or take the Computer home, civil and criminal liability, and any and all school discipline. Any debt incurred as a result of a policy violation, vandalism, or improper use of the Internet is the responsibility of the Student and his/her Parent or guardian. Due process is followed in conjunction with any disciplinary action.
Potential consequences. The deployment of enforcement equipment during the project will be an integral element of the casualty reduction strategy for the whole of Bedfordshire. Therefore a reduced level of enforcement would have the following consequences: - Casualty numbers, particularly those within the killed and seriously injured category, would be likely to rise as a direct result of the inevitable deterioration in driver behaviour in terms of observing speed limits. This would have a significant impact on the Health Service, and society as a whole. - The cameras utilised during the project would need to be rotated on a less frequent basis, or even removed, in order to reflect the reduced support available.
Potential consequences. What can the potential consequences be for applying for APA in Sweden? It is not only the MNEs that suffer from potential consequences when applying for APAs, there are also public financial consequences and consequences for the Swedish tax authorities (Prop. 2009/10:17). There is no legislation concerning sanctions if the applying corporation includes false or wrong information in their application. The reason for this is that it is assumed to be in the interest of the applicant that an APA is issued, and therefore the applicant is believed not to take advantage of the situation (Prop. 2009/10:17). The application process of APA is both time and resource demanding, the application is large-scale and will require a lot of time when it comes to gathering the required information. With respect to this the administrative burden of applying for an APA can be said to be placed on the corporations, this including the application fee that they have to pay. However, it shall not be forgotten that applying for an APA is voluntary and shall only be done for complicated and large scale questions concerning price setting. Also, the corporations do already have to keep some of the required information with respect to Swedish documentation requirements (Prop. 2009/10:17). One positive consequence of the APA is that it implies predictability for the nearest three to five taxation years. Which means that the risk of long and costly audits, that can be the case if the applied price method does not lead to a price set at arm’s length, is decreased. It will also as previously mentioned decrease the risk of economic double taxations and lengthy negotiations between the tax authorities of different countries. As such there are, despite the application fee, a decrease in costs in the sense that an APA helps to prevent costs that arises from audits and court procedures (Prop. 2009/10:17).
