As China’s mountainous regions host more and more gas pipelines, incidents involving natural gas leaks that cause harm to the environment or injure people are growing increasingly common. To investigate the diffusion behavior and vertical hazard distance of leakage gas in mountainous regions, a three-dimensional model of pipeline-soil-air was created with CFD software. The impacts of various obstructions, soil types, burial depths, leak hole shapes, and leak directions on the propagation of natural gas pipeline leaks and hazard distances were studied separately. The results show that in proportion to the direction angle between the buoyant force and the leakage hole, the vertical hazard distance and the rate of gas diffusion to the ground decrease. Diffusion rates and hazard ranges are larger for square and triangle leaking holes compared to circular ones. As soil porosity and granularity increase, the rate at which escaping gases diffuse into the soil increases steadily. The time it takes for the gas leak to release will vary depending on the burial depth, and as soil burial depth increases, so will the vertical hazard distance. Obstructions will alter the diffusion path of the leaking gas and accelerate the vertical hazard distance. Culverts will allow the gas to accumulate in the ditch to form an area of high concentration.
