Description

Die Erfindung betrifft die Außenisolierung von Behältern für den Massentransport von Methan (oder ähnlichen, normalerweise gasförmigen Substanzen) in flüssigem Zustand bei niedriger Temperatur auf Schiffen.The invention relates to the external insulation of containers for the mass transport of methane (or similar, usually gaseous substances) in a liquid state at low temperature Ships.

Damit die Verdampfung des in den Behältern enthaltenen flüssigen Methans so gering wie nur möglich bleibt, muß die Isolierung jedes Behälters in der Lage sein, das Ansteigen des Überganges der Umgebungswärme auf einen Wert zu verhindern, der eine Verdampfung von z. B. mehr als 1It % des gesamten Behälterinhaltes je Tag bewirkt. Zunächst scheint dieses nur eine Frage der Dicke der Isolierung zu sein, doch können im Falle großer Methanbehälter die Behälterwände sich um viele Zentimeter zusammenziehen, wenn der Behälter mit flüssigem Methan beladen wird, das einen Siedepunkt von —164° C hat. Das Isolationsmaterial muß sich daher der Wärmeausdehnung und -zusammenziehung des Behälters anpassen. Die Erfindung bezweckt, eine Isolierungsform zu finden, die diesen zweifachen Erfordernissen Rechnung trägt. Die Außenisolierung von Behältern für den Massentransport von Methan (oder ähnlichen normalerweise gasförmigen Substanzen) in flüssigem Zustand bei niedriger Temperatur auf Schiffen ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Isolierung in an sich bekannter Weise aus Glasfasermatten besteht, die auf die äußere Behälteroberfläche durch Umfangsbänder gedrückt werden, deren Umfangslänge verstellbar ist.So that the evaporation of the liquid methane contained in the containers remains as low as possible, the insulation of each container must be able to prevent the increase in the transition of the ambient heat to a value that would allow evaporation of z. B. causes more than 1 % of the total container content per day. At first this seems to be only a question of the thickness of the insulation, but in the case of large methane containers the container walls can contract by many centimeters when the container is loaded with liquid methane, which has a boiling point of -164 ° C. The insulation material must therefore adapt to the thermal expansion and contraction of the container. The aim of the invention is to find a form of insulation which takes these twofold requirements into account. The external insulation of containers for the mass transport of methane (or similar normally gaseous substances) in the liquid state at low temperature on ships is characterized according to the invention in that the insulation consists of glass fiber mats in a manner known per se, which are pressed onto the outer container surface by circumferential bands whose circumferential length is adjustable.

Diese Ausbildung ermöglicht es, daß die Isolierung sich im Zustand der Zusammendrückung gegen die Behälteroberfläche befindet, wenn sich der Behälter in seinem thermisch ausgedehnten Zustand befindet, und daß die Isolierung die volle Zusammenziehung des Behälters zuläßt, ohne daß die Berührung zwischen ihr und der Behälteroberfläche unterbrochen wird.This design makes it possible that the insulation is in the state of compression against the container surface when the container is in its thermally expanded state, and that the insulation permits full contraction of the container without the contact between it and the container surface is interrupted.

Vorzugsweise sind die Umfangsbänder in regelmäßigen Abständen über die Behälterhöhe vorgesehen.The circumferential bands are preferably provided at regular intervals across the height of the container.

Es können außerdem senkrechte Bänder in regelmäßigen Zwischenräumen um den Behälter herum zwischen den umfänglichen Umfangsbändern und der Isolierung zur Bildung eines Gitterwerkes mit diesen Bändern vorgesehen sein.There can also be vertical bands spaced regularly around the container between the circumferential circumferential bands and the insulation to form a latticework with them Ribbons may be provided.

Einzelheiten der Erfindung gehen aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines in der Zeichnung gezeigten Ausführungsbeispieles hervor.Details of the invention can be found in the following description of one shown in the drawing Embodiment.

Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Querschnitt durch einen Behälter gemäß der Erfindung und seine Anordnung in einem Schiff.The drawing shows a cross section through a container according to the invention and its arrangement in FIG a ship.

Damit der Behälter 21 sich radial frei ausdehnen und zusammenziehen kann, ruht er auf einer großen Zahl kurzer Rollen 108, die unter seinem Boden in radialen und umfänglichen Reihen angeordnet sind. Der Behälter ist auch mit oberen und unteren, mitt-Außenisolierung von BehälternSo that the container 21 can expand and contract radially freely, it rests on a large one A number of short rollers 108 arranged under its bottom in radial and circumferential rows. The container is also provided with upper and lower, mitt-external insulation of containers

Die Seiten des Behälters sind, wie bekannt, durch Glasfasermatten isoliert. Diese werden gegen den Behälter durch in Umfangsrichtung verlaufende Aluminiumbänder gedrückt, die in gleichmäßigen Abständen über die ganze Höhe des Hauptkörpers des Behälters verteilt sind. Die Glasfasermatten sind nachgiebig und werden durch die Bänder 152 zusammengedrückt, wenn sich der Behälter in seinem thermisch ausgedehnten Zustand befindet, d. h. unter normalen atmosphärischen Temperaturen. Diese Vorspannung wird mittels Spannschlössern in den Bändern mit Enden mit entgegengesetzten Gewinden bewirkt, wodurch die umfängliche Länge der Bänder verringert werden kann. Der auf die Matten 107 ausgeübte Grad der Zusammendrückung ist derart, daß, wenn der Behälter gefüllt ist und sich zusammenzieht, die Isoliermatten sich ausdehnen können und dadurch in Berührung mit der sich zusammenziehenden Oberfläche des Behälters bleiben. Dies geschieht bis hinunter zu dem,voll zusammengezogenen Zustand des Behälters bei seiner Arbeitstemperatur, so daß die Isolierung niemals die Berührung mit der Behälteroberfläche verliert.As is known, the sides of the container are insulated by glass fiber mats. These will be against the container pressed by aluminum bands running in the circumferential direction, which are evenly spaced are distributed over the entire height of the main body of the container. The fiberglass mats are pliable and are compressed by the straps 152 when the container is in its thermal expanded state, d. H. under normal atmospheric temperatures. This bias is effected by means of turnbuckles in the bands with ends with opposite threads, whereby the circumferential length of the bands can be reduced. The degree of compression applied to the mats 107 is such that when the container is filled and contracts, the insulating mats can expand and thereby come into contact with the contracting surface of the container stay. This happens all the way down to the fully contracted one Condition of the container at its working temperature, so that the insulation is never the Loses contact with the container surface.

mögen von ungefähr 7930 ms, und seine gesamte War- \- mezusammenziehung beträgt im Durchmesser ungefähr 125 mm. In Abhängigkeit von der bei der Anbringung der Mattenisolierung 107 herrschenden Temperatur beträgt die Zusammendrückung der Matten durch die Bänder 152 ungefähr 60 bis 75 mm und die tatsächliche Dicke der zusammengedrückten Isolierung ungefähr 254 bis 267 mm. Das ergibt eine Dicke der Isolierungen, die sich auf ungefähr 330 mm bei der niedrigen Arbeitstemperatur des Behälters ausdehnt, was im allgemeinen ausreicht, den Verdampfungsgrad des flüssigen Methans in dem Behälter auf J4% je Tag herunterzudrücken, wobei vorausgesetzt ist, daß die Isolierung an anderen Stellen um den Behälter herum ebensogut ist.love of approximately 7930 m s, and its overall maintenance \ - mezusammenziehung is in diameter about 125 mm. Depending on the temperature prevailing when the mat insulation 107 is applied, the compression of the mats by the tapes 152 is approximately 60 to 75 mm and the actual thickness of the compressed insulation is approximately 254 to 267 mm. This results in a thickness of the insulation which expands to about 330 mm at the low working temperature of the container, which is generally sufficient to reduce the degree of evaporation of the liquid methane in the container to 4% per day, provided that the insulation is applied to others Places around the container is just as good.

Um die Glasfasermatten 107 richtig an Ort und Stelle zu halten, sind senkrechte Aluminiumstreifen 153 zwischen der Isolierung und den umfänglichen Bändern 152 angeordnet und so mit regelmäßigen Abständen um den ganzen Behälter herumgelegt, daß die Streifen 153 mit den Bändern 152 ein Gitterwerk bilden. Diese senkrechten Streifen liegen im allgemeinen in Abständen von ungefähr 60 cm voneinander entfernt. Der Oberteil 29 des Behälters, der in einem Turm 26 vorsteht, ist in ähnlicher Weise isoliert.To hold the fiberglass mats 107 properly in place, vertical aluminum strips 153 are placed between the insulation and the circumferential tapes 152 and are spaced around the entire container so that the strips 153 form a latticework with the tapes 152. These vertical strips are generally spaced about 60 cm apart. The top 29 of the container protruding into a tower 26 is similarly insulated.

Die oberen Stirnflächen oder Schultern des Behälters 154,155 können ebenfalls durch Verwendung von Glasfasermatten oder mittels zellförmigen Isoliermaterials in Blockform isoliert werden. Um diese obere Isolierung 156 in seiner Lage zu halten, kann man radiale Aluminiumarme vorsehen, die darauf ruhen und an benachbarten Umfangsbändern 152 um den senkrechten Teil der Behälterwand angelenkt sein können. Wenn die obere Isolierung 156 an diesen radialen Armen angeheftet oder auf andere Weise befestigt sind, kann die Isolierung um diese Gelenke schnell gehoben werden, um Besichtigungen der Behälteroberflächen zu ermöglichen.The upper end faces or shoulders of the container 154 , 155 can also be insulated by using fiberglass mats or by means of cellular insulating material in block form. To hold this top insulation 156 in place one can provide radial aluminum arms which rest thereon and can be hinged to adjacent peripheral bands 152 around the vertical portion of the container wall. With the top insulation 156 pinned or otherwise attached to these radial arms, the insulation around these hinges can be quickly lifted to allow inspections of the container surfaces.

Ein erheblicher freier Raum in der Größenordnung von etwa 75 cm ist zwischen dem Behälterboden und dem Innenboden 130 des Schiffes vorgesehen, und dieser Raum ist mit einem körnigen Isoliermaterial gefüllt. Bei allen Behälterecken ist reichliche Überlappung des Isoliermaterials vorgesehen, um während der Ausdehnung und Zusammenziehung keine Unterbrechung entstehen zu lassen. Im Falle der körnigen Isolierung 106 am Behälterboden wird diese über die Seitenisolierung 107 etwa bei 158 fortgeführt und durch an der Schiffskonstruktion befestigte stählerne Haltewände 159 gehalten. Das ermöglicht ein verein- 5" fachtes Füllen des unter dem Behälter befindlichen Raumes mit dem körnigen Isoliermaterial und gibt die Möglichkeit zum Nachfüllen bei jedem Zusammenrütteln des Isoliermaterials während des Betriebes.A substantial free space, on the order of about 75 cm, is provided between the vessel bottom and the interior bottom 130 of the ship, and this space is filled with a granular insulating material. Ample overlap of the insulating material is provided for all container corners so as not to cause any interruption during expansion and contraction. In the case of the granular insulation 106 on the container bottom, this is continued over the side insulation 107 at approximately 158 and held by steel retaining walls 159 attached to the ship structure. This enables the space under the container to be filled more easily with the granular insulating material and gives the possibility of refilling each time the insulating material is shaken together during operation.

Bezüglich der übrigen Isolierung sei noch erwähnt, daß die Rollen 108, auf denen der Behälter ruht, aus lastentragendem, elektrisch und thermisch isolierendem Material hergestellt sind, und sie sind auf hohlen Aluminiumlagerblöcken angeordnet, die mit auf dem Schiffsboden liegenden Stahlstangen verschraubt sind. Kissen aus lastentragendem, thermisch und elektrisch isolierendem Material sind zwischen den Lagerböcken und den Stangen eingeschaltet. Abgerundete Teile sind um die Stangen angeordnet, um sicherzustellen, daß die körnige Isolierung 106 leicht in den Raum unter dem Behälter läuft und daß keine ungefüllten Taschen verbleiben.Regarding the remaining insulation, it should be noted that the rollers 108 on which the container rests are made of load-bearing, electrically and thermally insulating material, and they are arranged on hollow aluminum bearing blocks which are bolted to steel rods lying on the ship's bottom. Cushions made of load-bearing, thermally and electrically insulating material are inserted between the bearing blocks and the rods. Rounded portions are placed around the rods to ensure that the granular insulation 106 runs easily into the space under the container and that no unfilled pockets remain.

Jeder der Behälterzapfen 92,101 ist durch einen Stahlring oder eine Hülse, die einen Teil der Schiffskonstruktion bilden, umgeben, wobei die Zapfenlager durch diese Hülsen und konzentrische Ringen aus lastentragendem, wärmeisolierendem Material gebildet sind, das in den Ringräumen zwischen den Hülsen und den Zapfen 92,101 angeordnet ist. Die Ringe des unteren Zapfenlagers haben zwischen sich hydraulische Kissen, und ebenso können die Ringe des oberen Lagers, falls gewünscht, hydraulische Kissen umschließen. Die inneren Ringe berühren die Zapfen, während die Außenringe die Hülsen berühren. Die Anordnung jedes Lagers ist so entworfen, daß es den Zapfen festhält, während gleichzeitig, wenn erforderlich, radiale Ausdehnung und Zusammenziehung ermöglicht wird. Das obere Lager läßt auch senkrechte Wärmebewegung des Behälters zu. Ein Raum zwischen dem Kopf des unteren Behälterzapfens 92 und seinem Lager ist mit körniger Isolierung gefüllt, während die Hülse, die den oberen Zapfen 101 umgibt, über den Zapfen und sein Lager hinaus verlängert und auch mit körniger Isolierung gefüllt ist.Each of the container journals 92,101 is surrounded by a steel ring or sleeve which forms part of the ship's structure, the journal bearings being formed by these sleeves and concentric rings of load-bearing, heat-insulating material which are arranged in the annular spaces between the sleeves and the journals 92,101 is. The rings of the lower journal bearing have hydraulic cushions between them, and likewise the rings of the upper bearing can enclose hydraulic cushions if desired. The inner rings contact the pins while the outer rings contact the sleeves. The arrangement of each bearing is designed to hold the pin in place while allowing radial expansion and contraction as required. The upper bearing also allows vertical thermal movement of the container. A space between the head of the lower container journal 92 and its bearing is filled with granular insulation, while the sleeve surrounding the upper journal 101 is extended beyond the journal and its bearing and is also filled with granular insulation.

Die oben in Verbindung mit großen Transportbehältern beschriebenen allgemeinen Grundsätze werden auch bei der Isolierung kleiner Behälter verwendet. Es ist ersichtlich, daß die erfindungsgemäße Isolierung auf sehr verschiedene B ehälter formen anwendbar ist, doch ist sie in dem Falle aufrechter zylindrischer Behälter der beschriebenen Art besonders geeignet. Die nachgiebige Mattenisolierung für den Umfang der Behälter ist wesentlich besser als eine Blockisolierung, welche Schwierigkeiten in bezug auf die Anpassung an die Wärmebewegung ergibt, und als eine körnige Isolierung, die die Tendenz hat, sich zusammenzudrücken und die Isoliereigenschaften zu verlieren. Körnige Isolierung ist jedoch geeignet für den unter dem Behälter gelegenen Raum, da sie um die Unterstützungen einfließen kann, und Blockisolierung ist am Oberteil des Behälters wirksam. Der Grad der Zusammenpressung, dem die nachgiebigen Matten um die Seiten des Behälters herum unterworfen sind, ändern sich natürlich entsprechend dem Temperaturbereich und der Behältergröße, The general principles described above in connection with large shipping containers will be also used in the insulation of small containers. It can be seen that the insulation according to the invention is applicable to a wide variety of container shapes, but it is in the case of upright cylindrical containers of the type described particularly suitable. The resilient mat insulation for the perimeter of the Container is much better than block insulation, which is difficult to adapt to gives the heat movement, and as a granular insulation that has a tendency to compress and lose the insulating properties. Granular insulation, however, is suitable for the under the container as it can flow in around the supports, and block insulation is on the upper part of the container effective. The degree of compression that the resilient mats around the sides of the The container around will of course change according to the temperature range and container size,

Um zu verhindern, daß der Wirkungsgrad der Isolierung infolge Vorhandenseins von Feuchtigkeit verringert wird, kann noch ein Umlauf system für Lufttrocknung vorgesehen sein, das mit den jeden Verladebehälter umgebenden Kofferdammräumen verbunden ist. Die Lufttrocknungsanlage kann beispielsweise der Kieselgurbauart angehören.To prevent the insulation efficiency from decreasing due to the presence of moisture is, a circulation system for air drying can be provided with each loading container surrounding cofferdam spaces. The air drying system can, for example, the Belong to kieselguhr type.

Obwohl die hier beschriebene Anordnung besonders im Hinblick auf bereits in Schiffen untergebrachte Transportbehälter für flüssiges Methan entworfen ist, ist es offensichtlich, daß sie auch bei anderen Behältern verwendbar ist, z. B. bei Behältern, mit denen ein bestehendes öltankschiff der Beförderung von Methan durch Einbau der erfindungsgemäß isolierten Behälter angepaßt wird.Although the arrangement described here especially with regard to those already housed in ships If the transport container is designed for liquid methane, it is obvious that it can also be used for other containers is usable, e.g. B. in the case of containers with which an existing oil tanker transports methane is adapted by incorporating the insulated container according to the invention.
