Long-term test will be carried out to observe possible appliances alterations (performances or physical alteration) in the long-term (few month) with given H2NG blend. The idea with the long-term testing is to simulate a real situation in accelerating the testing time, several indicators will also be continuously monitored to identify possible alterations.
The long-term tests are planned to last 30 weeks for a total of 2520 hours of operation with a 30 % H2 admixture in the natural gas on 5 boilers and 2 cooking hobs.
This report describes the methodology adopted by the project for these long-term tests.
