In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the refrigeration cycle assembly comprises a liquid nitrogen refrigeration assembly 520, the liquid nitrogen refrigeration assembly 520 comprises a liquid nitrogen supply source 521 and a liquid nitrogen delivery pipe 522, and liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen supply source 521 is delivered into the cold box 510 through the liquid nitrogen delivery pipe 522 to refrigerate the cold box 510. In these examples, liquid nitrogen supply 521 may provide liquid nitrogen having a lower temperature and pass into cold box 510 through liquid nitrogen delivery conduit 522 to exchange heat with the BOG in cold box 510 to cool the BOG, while the temperature of the liquid nitrogen is raised to form nitrogen gas to rapidly cool the BOG. The nitrogen is a component in the air, so the nitrogen after temperature rise can be discharged into the air without further recovery, the space required by the liquid nitrogen refrigeration component 520 required to be arranged is saved, and the equipment cost required for recovering the nitrogen is reduced.
In other examples, the nitrogen recovery line may be provided to collect the heated nitrogen again, lower the temperature of the collected nitrogen, liquefy the collected nitrogen, and use the liquefied nitrogen as the liquid nitrogen supply source 521.
Optionally, the liquid nitrogen supply source 521 is a liquid nitrogen tank, or a liquid nitrogen supply pool, and the liquid nitrogen tank is convenient to replace; and the content of the liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen supply pool is sufficient, so that the liquid nitrogen supply source 521 can continuously supply the liquid nitrogen with the required temperature to provide sufficient cold energy for the cold box 510.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the refrigeration cycle assembly comprises a helium refrigeration assembly 530, and the helium refrigeration assembly 530 can be used alone as a primary refrigeration cycle assembly or in combination with the liquid nitrogen refrigeration assembly 520 as a secondary refrigeration cycle assembly.
As shown in fig. 1, the helium refrigeration assembly 530 includes a helium supply 531, a helium compressor 533 and an expander (not shown in the figure), the helium supply 531 supplies helium to the helium compressor 533, the helium compressor 533 compresses the helium to form high-pressure helium, the high-pressure helium is delivered to the expander, and the high-pressure helium in the expander expands to work as cold box 510 for refrigeration, so that the BOG in the cold box 510 absorbs cold energy and is cooled down efficiently.
Alternatively, the helium supply 531 may be replaced with a helium storage tank.
Since the helium compressor 533 needs to be lubricated by using lubricant during operation, so that the helium compressor 533 can work normally, and since part of the lubricant is mixed during the helium gas flowing through the helium compressor 533 and being compressed, it is necessary to separate the helium gas from the lubricant before the high-pressure helium gas is delivered to the cold box 510. Since helium is a rare gas, which is stable in properties, but relatively expensive, it is necessary to recycle helium so that the helium can be recycled after providing cold energy to the cold box 510, which requires efficient separation of helium from lubricant oil when the helium is recycled to the helium supply.
Therefore, the helium refrigeration assembly 530 of the present invention further comprises an oil removal assembly 532, wherein the oil removal assembly 532 is connected to the helium compressor 533 and the helium supply source 531 through a first pipeline assembly, so that when helium needs to be recovered, the oil removal assembly 532 can effectively separate helium flowing through from lubricating oil, and only helium returns to the helium supply source 531; when helium needs to be delivered to the helium compressor 533, part of the lubricating oil carried by the helium passes through the oil removing assembly 532 and enters the helium compressor 533 together, so that the helium is compressed and the helium compressor 533 is lubricated reliably.

Optionally, the first pipeline assembly comprises a first gas path 534 for delivering helium from the helium supply 531 to the oil removing assembly 532, a first mixed oil gas path 535 for delivering helium and delivering lubricating oil from the oil removing assembly 532 to the helium compressor 533, a second mixed oil gas path 536 for delivering high-pressure helium and delivering lubricating oil from the helium compressor 533 to the oil removing assembly 532, and a second gas path for recovering helium from the oil removing assembly 532 to the helium supply 531, so that helium can be delivered to the helium compressor 533 and effectively compressed, and helium can be removed by the oil removing assembly 532 during recovery.
Optionally, the second conduit assembly includes a third gas path 537 for delivering high pressure helium gas from the oil removal assembly 532 to the cold box 510, and a fourth gas path 538 for delivering high temperature helium gas that has been expanded to perform work from the cold box 510 to the helium compressor 533. Therefore, the helium can be effectively recycled after work is done in the expansion machine, and the next helium cooling is convenient to carry out. Meanwhile, the helium passing through the helium compressor 533 can be returned to the oil removing assembly 532 through the aforementioned second mixed oil gas path 536 to remove oil again, and then returned to the helium supply 531 through the second gas path for reuse.
In other examples, the second gas path in the above examples may be omitted, and the first gas path may be used as a gas path for conveying helium from the helium supply source 531 to the oil removing assembly 532, and a gas path for recovering helium from the oil removing assembly 532 to return separated helium to the helium supply source 531.
In a specific example, when the cold box 510 needs helium to provide cold, helium with a certain purity in the helium supply source 531 is conveyed towards the oil removal component 532 through the first gas path 534, helium with a certain amount of lubricating oil is conveyed into the helium compressor 533 through the first mixed oil gas path 535, helium in the helium compressor 533 is compressed and then enters the oil removal component 532 through the second mixed oil gas path 536 to remove oil, and then high-pressure helium is conveyed into the expansion machine of the cold box 510 through the third gas path 537, and the expansion machine performs expansion work on the high-pressure helium, so that the cold box 510 is refrigerated. After the cooling box 510 finishes cooling, the air with increased temperature returns to the helium compressor 533 through the fourth gas path 538 from the cooling box 510 again for compression, the helium gas and the lubricating oil with certain pressure in the helium compressor 533 returns to the oil removing assembly 532 through the second mixed oil gas path 536 for oil-gas separation, and then the helium gas is recovered and stored in the helium gas supply source 531 from the first gas path 534 (or the second gas path additionally arranged), so that the helium gas is recovered and utilized.

The cooling efficiency of the BOG is prevented from being lowered by heat absorption of the cold box 510 itself.

The water cooling assembly delivers cooling water to the helium compressor 533 or the vacuum pump unit 620, so as to absorb heat generated by the helium compressor 533 or the vacuum pump unit 620, and thus the helium compressor 533 or the vacuum pump unit 620 is cooled. The air cooling assembly can continuously blow low-temperature air to the helium compressor 533 or the vacuum pump unit 620, so that high-temperature air around the helium compressor 533 or the vacuum pump unit 620 is taken away, and heat dissipation is achieved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 further includes a throttle valve (not shown in the drawings), the throttle valve is disposed at the liquid outlet end of the cold box 510, and the pressure becomes lower and the temperature further decreases when the volume of the throttled BOG is not changed, so that the BOG cooled by the helium cooling component 530 is further cooled and liquefied into liquid hydrogen. Then, the throttle valve here may further serve as a three-stage refrigeration cycle component. The throttle valve will cause the BOG to perform Joule-Thomson expansion to further lower the temperature, and finally the temperature of the liquid hydrogen flowing out of the cold box 510 can reach approximately-253 to-233 ℃, so that the liquid hydrogen can be well fused with the liquid hydrogen in the original hydrogen storage device 101 when returning to the liquid hydrogen storage device 101, and the temperature can be prevented from being greatly fluctuated.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 further includes a hydrogen buffer tank 200, the hydrogen buffer tank 200 is disposed between the air-temperature gasifier 100 and the hydrogen compressor 300, and the hydrogen buffer tank 200 can store the BOG heated by the air-temperature gasifier 100, so that more BOG is collected in the hydrogen buffer tank 200 and then is delivered to the hydrogen compressor 300, so that the hydrogen compressor 300 can process more BOG at one time, the processing efficiency of the hydrogen compressor 300 is improved, and the BOG flowing through the hydrogen compressor 300 can be ensured to be more stable in property, which is convenient for centralized processing.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 1, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 further includes a flow regulating valve 210, and the flow regulating valve 210 can regulate the outlet flow of the hydrogen buffer tank 200, so as to facilitate control of the flow rate and the flow rate of the BOG flowing to the hydrogen compressor 300.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 1, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 further includes a partial pressure valve 310, and the partial pressure valve 310 is connected in parallel to the hydrogen compressor 300, so that the pressure of the BOG and the amount of the BOG entering the hydrogen compressor 300 can be adjusted.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 further includes a pressure regulating valve 410, the pressure regulating valve 410 is disposed between the hydrogen compressor 300 and the cold box 510, and the pressure regulating valve 410 regulates pressure for the hydrogen flowing through, so that the pressure of the BOG before entering the main air intake pipeline of the cold box 510 is moderate, and the subsequent refrigeration heat exchange treatment is facilitated. In some specific examples, the inlet pressure through the cold box 510 is 1.1 MPa.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 1, the BOG recovery system 1000 of the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 further includes a temperature adjusting valve 420, where the temperature adjusting valve 420 is disposed between the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 and the cold box 510 to be opened when the flowing-through liquid hydrogen meets a preset temperature, in these examples, when the temperature does not meet the preset temperature during the liquid hydrogen backflow, the temperature adjusting valve 420 is kept closed, the liquid hydrogen after temperature reduction cannot flow back into the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101, and the liquid hydrogen with the temperature that is not met is effectively prevented from flowing back into the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 to cause a large fluctuation in the temperature of the liquid hydrogen in the raw liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101. At this time, the temperature of the liquid hydrogen formed after heat exchange can be adjusted within a preset range by adjusting the amount of cold energy provided by each stage of refrigeration cycle component in the heat exchange recovery system 500 and the amount of BOG required for heat exchange.
Optionally, the liquid hydrogen with unqualified temperature can further flow back to the cold box 510 through a return line for refrigeration; or collecting the liquid hydrogen with unqualified temperature, and cooling to the required temperature again after a certain amount of liquid hydrogen is collected.

That is to say, the liquid hydrogen of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 itself has a certain evaporation rate, so when BOG is continuously generated in the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 and the pressure of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 is continuously increased to a certain pressure, it is necessary to release the pressure as soon as possible, and the amount of the BOG at this time has reached a higher degree. The frequent operation or low-load operation of the air-temperature gasifier 100, the hydrogen compressor 300 and the heat exchange recovery system 500 is effectively prevented.
In other examples, of course, instead of the safety valve, a gas pressure sensor and a switching valve may be used, the gas pressure sensor and the switching valve are connected to the liquid hydrogen storage device 101, and when the gas pressure sensor detects that the BOG gas pressure in the liquid hydrogen storage device 101 reaches a preset threshold value, the switching valve opens the exhaust pipe of the liquid hydrogen storage device 101, so that the BOG is exhausted toward the air-temperature vaporizer 100.
To ensure the regasification of the liquid hydrogen of the present application, the purity of the liquid hydrogen in the liquid hydrogen storage apparatus 101 should be maintained within a high purity threshold. For example, in some specific examples, the purity of the liquid hydrogen may be greater than 99%, and even as high as 99.9999%.
The present invention is not limited to the above preferred embodiments, and any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
