Hydro-pneumatic accumulators have been used on liquid transporting lines to reduce the water hammer produced by sudden closure of valves. These units, usually of the separator type having a diaphragm or floating piston to separate the fluid and gas volumes, are quite satisfactory as long as the operating temperature is moderate and relatively constant. When operating a cryogenic line, the temperature in the surge absorber may vary from plus 60F to minus 260F in as little as 7 seconds. This represents a very severe thermal shock on the pressure vessel.
To my knowledge, no way was known prior to the present invention, to eliminate the thermal shock problem, and particularly in the unusually advantageous manner as now afforded by the present invention.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is a major object of the invention to provide a cryogenic fluid surge absorber overcoming the above described problem. Basically, it comprises:
a. a first container for containing pressurized gas, and
b. a second container to receive surging cryogenic liquid via an inlet to the second container, the upper interior of the second container being in open communication with the interior of the first container so that gas in the first container is increasingly pressurized as cryogenic liquid is received into the second container.
As will appear, the second container preferably extends into or within the first container; the two containers have spaced walls to allow reception of gas into the interwall space, and the liquid thus being confined within the inner or second container. Further, a heater may be provided to heat and vaporize a portion of the liquid rising into the second container to assure the presence of a gas cushion in the first or outer container, and a thermostat may be located to sense the incoming cryogenic liquid so as to activate the heater. Further, a surge of cryogenic liquid rising into the second container may be baffled to prevent displacement of liquid into the gas space between the two containers.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention, as well as the details of an illustrative embodiment, will be more fully understood from the following description with reference to the drawing.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION The illustrated surge absorber 10 for cryogenic fluid comprises a first container, as for example upright elongated shell 11, for containing pressurized gas, and a second container, as for example upright elongated shell 12. As referred to, the second container is located to receive surging cryogenic liquid via an inlet 13, the upper interior 14 of the second container being in open communication with the interior 15 of the first container so that gas in the first container is increasingly pressurized as cryogenic liquid is received into the second container. An extremely compact unit may be provided wherein the second container extends into the first container as shown, with the two containers having annular walls which are closely spaced apart, the gas in the first container then filling the space 16 between the walls and insulating the liquid receiving portion of the second container from the wall of the first container.
Typically, the cryogenic liquid may consist of a hydrocarbon gas such as liquified natural gas; the inner shell 12 need not comprise a pressure vessel and may consist of material such as aluminum or stainless steel capable of withstanding thermal shock; and the outer pressure containing vessel or shell 11 may consist of steel plate capable of safe operation in the temperature range 20 to 650 F.
The inlet 13 is preferably located proximate the lowermost extent of the second container 12, and is shown as connected, via insulated branch pipe 17, with a pipe 18 such as insulated main conduit having a side port 19. The surge absorber 10, mounted via legs 20 on a base 21, functions to absorb surges in the cryogenic fluid or liquid in pipe 18 by converting the kinetic energy of the moving fluid into stored potential energy by compression of the gas in the first container interior as at 15. Note that the second container extends vertically upwardly to a level 12b above the uppermost level of cryogenic liquid entering container 12. A typical uppermost liquid surge level is indicated at 22, the normal level lying near the inlet 13, as for example at 220 which is the top-most level in pipe 18. Flanges 23 and 24 respectively integral with upper and lower portions of the outer container serve to interconnect those portions; also, insulating spacers or blocks 25 in space 16 serve to maintain the two containers in annularly spaced relation. Blocks 25 may consist of styrofoam. Other type spacers may be employed, if desired.
To insure the presence of compressible gas in the interior of outer container 11, and above level 22, a heater may be provided proximate the lower extent of the second container, or near the inlet, to transfer heat to incoming cryogenic liquid, vaporizing a portion thereof. One such heater is illustrated in the form of electric heating coil 30, electrically connected at 31 with thermostat 32. The latter is in turn connected at 33 with a source 34 of electrical power. The thermostat is located close to the inlet piping and preferably above level 22a to sense the presence of the incoming cryogenic liquid rising into container 12 via inlet 13, during a surge. The thermostat activates the heater, as by connecting power source 34 with the coil 30, in response to such cold sensing.
A baffle 36 may advantageously be located directly above inlet 13 to impede the upward inrush of cryogenic liquid into container 12, thereby to prevent rapid filling or jetting of the inrushing liquid above the open top level 12b of the inner container 12.
The inlet pipe size can be controlled to provide a pressure loss at the time of maximum fluid inrush to provide-the maximum allowable pressure in the main line. The piping 17 is shown attached to the bottom of the surge absorber and to the side of the main line to provide the maximum flexibility between the pipe and pressure vessel to accommodate pipe movement due to temperature induced expansion and contraction. The pressure vessel could be mounted above and on the main line pipe 18 to move therewith, provided the main line is properly supported to withstand the weight of the absorber filled with cryogenic liquid.
