Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif formant structure de paroi thermiquement isolante d'une enceinte ou cuve de confinement formant réservoir calorifugé étanche d'emmagasinage ou de conservation d'un fluide très froid tel que notamment du gaz naturel liquéfié.The present invention relates to a device forming a thermally insulating wall structure of an enclosure or containment vessel forming a sealed insulated tank for storing or conserving a very cold fluid such as in particular liquefied natural gas.
On connait déjà, dans l'état antérieur de la technique constitué par le brevet français No. 2 271 497 et son premier Certificat d'Addition No. 2 286 341 aux noms de la demanderesse, des réservoirs pour le stockage ou le transport de fluides liquides et/ou gazeux présentant en majeure partie une phase liquide, tels que par exemple des fluides cryogéniques tels que notamment des gaz naturels liquéfiés et en particulier le méthane. Ces réservoirs présentent une paroi externe autoportante ou rigide, une paroi interne imperméable ou barrière primaire sensiblement flexible ou souple formant membrane espacée de la paroi externe et une matière intermédiaire thermiquement isolante, fixée à la paroi externe et servant de surface d'appui à la paroi interne, et comprenant essentiellement une couche formée de panneaux adjacents séparés les uns les autres par des garnitures de joints intercalaires étanches au gaz.There are already known, in the prior art constituted by French patent No. 2,271,497 and its first Certificate of Addition No. 2,286,341 to the names of the applicant, reservoirs for the storage or transport of fluids liquids and / or gaseous having for the most part a liquid phase, such as for example cryogenic fluids such as in particular liquefied natural gases and in particular methane. These tanks have a self-supporting or rigid external wall, an impermeable internal wall or a substantially flexible or flexible primary barrier forming a membrane spaced from the external wall and a thermally insulating intermediate material, fixed to the external wall and serving as a support surface for the wall. internal, and essentially comprising a layer formed of adjacent panels separated from each other by gas-tight interlayer gasket liners.
La garniture de joint intercalaire est latéralement collée entre deux panneaux isolants préfabriqués et est constitueé par une matière élastique telle que de la mousse de chlorure de polyvinyle souple.The insert gasket is laterally bonded between two prefabricated insulating panels and is made of an elastic material such as flexible polyvinyl chloride foam.
Cependant, cette structure de paroi connue a pour inconvénient d'occasionner un retard à la détection de fuite du fluide à travers notamment la barrière imperméable secondaire faisant partie de la structure et dont une portion est intégrée par collage à la garniture de joint intercalaire, retard dû à l'étanchéité, au gaz de la mousse isolante utilisée (isolant cellulaire à cellules fermées en polyuréthane par exemple).However, this known wall structure has the drawback of causing a delay in the detection of leakage of the fluid through in particular the secondary impermeable barrier forming part of the structure and a portion of which is integrated by gluing to the intermediate gasket, delay due to the gas-tightness of the insulating foam used (cell insulation with closed cells made of polyurethane for example).
FR-A 2 329 933 décrit une structure de paroi thermiquement isolante répondant au préambule de la revendication 1.FR-A 2 329 933 describes a thermally insulating wall structure corresponding to the preamble of claim 1.
Cependant, les joints latéraux en fibres de verre fixés au corps de garniture montent jusqu'au niveau de la barrière primaire, comme représenté en figure 20 de ce document antérieur, et donc jusqu'au point le plus froid de la structure: ceci n'est pas du tout performant sur le plan thermique.However, the lateral fiberglass seals fixed to the lining body rise up to the level of the primary barrier, as shown in FIG. 20 of this prior document, and therefore up to the coldest point of the structure: this is not is not at all efficient on the thermal level.
La présente invention a pour but de pallier les inconvénients susmentionnés en proposant un dispositif formant structure de paroi thermiquement isolante d'un réservoir étanche de fluide, tel que défini dans la revendication 1.The present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing a device forming a thermally insulating wall structure of a sealed fluid reservoir, as defined in claim 1.
Suivant une caractéristique de l'invention, la feuille précitée est en papier Kraft ou équivalent.According to a characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned sheet is made of Kraft paper or equivalent.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif comprend de préférence au moins deux tampons superposés.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the device preferably comprises at least two superposed buffers.
Selon toujours une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le joint latéral est lié par collage au corps de garniture.Still according to another characteristic of the invention, the side seal is bonded to the packing body.
L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres buts, caractéristiques, détails et avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement au cours de la description explicative qui va suivre faite en référence au dessin schématique annexé donné uniquement à titre d'exemple illustrant un mode de réalisation de l'invention et dans lequel:
- - la figure unique représente une vue fragmentaire en coupe d'une portion de la structure de paroi thermiquement isolante conforme à l'invention.
- - The single figure shows a fragmentary sectional view of a portion of the thermally insulating wall structure according to the invention.
Selon l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur la figure et tel qu'applique à une cuve intégrée à la coque ou cale d'un navire-citerne par exemple de transport de gaz naturel liquéfié, la structure de paroi calorifugée étanche d'une telle cuve comprend successivement de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur:
- - une paroi externe autoportante ou rigide 1 notamment métallique et constituée par exemple par la double coque en acier d'un navire;
- - une couche extrême externe 2 comportant un quadrillage de bandes ou pastilles de mastic ou de matière équivalente suivant des lignes de pastillage espacées et assurant la liaison entre les éléments 1 et 8.
- - une couche intermédiaire 3 en une matière thermiquement isolante formée de panneaux sandwich adjacents séparés les uns des autres et fixés à la paroi externe 1 en des points discrets par des goujons 4 avantageusement soudés à la paroi externe 1, les intervalles entre panneaux adjacents étant remplis par des garnitures de joint intercalaires 5 constituées par exemple par une matière cellulaire isolante rigide telle que mousse de polyuréthane à cellules fermées et recouvertes intérieurement par des bandes de couvre-joint 6 ;
- - une barrière primaire étanche 7 supportée par la face interne de la couche intermédiaire 3 et constituée avantageusement par une tôle métallique mince ondulée, plissée, gaufrée ou nervurée par exemple en acier inoxydable, avec au moins une série d'ondes espacées, sensiblement parallèles et en saillie seulement du côté interne.
- - A self-supporting or rigid external wall 1, in particular metallic, constituted for example by the double steel hull of a ship;
- - an external extreme layer 2 comprising a grid of bands or pellets of mastic or equivalent material along spaced apart lines of pastillage and ensuring the connection between the elements 1 and 8.
- - An
intermediate layer 3 of a thermally insulating material formed from adjacent sandwich panels separated from each other and fixed to the external wall 1 at discrete points by studs 4 advantageously welded to the external wall 1, the intervals between adjacent panels being filled byintermediate seal linings 5 constituted for example by a rigid insulating cellular material such as polyurethane foam with closed cells and covered internally by strips of joint cover 6; - a sealed primary barrier 7 supported by the internal face of the
intermediate layer 3 and advantageously constituted by a thin corrugated, pleated, embossed or ribbed metal sheet, for example made of stainless steel, with at least one series of spaced waves, substantially parallel and protruding only from the inner side.
Chaque panneau sandwich 3 se compose avantageusement, de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur : d'une plaque externe en bois contre-plaqué 8 ; d'une plaque intermédiaire en matière isolante 9 en mousse de polyuréthane par exemple à couches superposées d'une épaisseur beaucoup plus importante que celle de la plaque externe 8 ; d'une plaque interne 10 laquelle, conjointement avec les couvre-joints 6, servent de barrière secondaire étanche ; une couche calorifuge extrême interne 11, formant couche séparatrice entre les deux barrières d'étanchéité espacées respectivement secondaire 6, 10 et primaire 7, et constituée par des éléments alignés 11 juxtaposés non jointivement formant pavés à côtés ou bords opposés respectivement parallèles aux directions respectives des ondes 7a de la barrière primaire 7, les pavés 11 étant espacés les uns des autres et de dimension telle que chaque intervalle de séparation 12 entre deux pavés voisins est situé sensiblement au droit d'une onde 7a de la barrière primaire et s'étend le long de celle-ci; une couche de répartition relativement rigide 13 constituée par des plaques par exemple en bois contre-plaqué ou de matière synthétique appropriée et interposée entre la couche séparatrice 11 et la barrière primaire 7.Each
Le fractionnement par division de la couche extrême interne 11 permet à celle-ci de suivre plus facilement les dilatations et contractions thermiques non seulement d'elle même mais aussi de la barrière primaire 7 en réduisant ainsi des contraintes internes résiduelles d'origine thermique. Cette couche extrême interne 11 est en une matière synthétique cellulaire notamment expansée ou mousse telle que par exemple le polyuréthane qui est relativement souple surtout par rapport à la couche de répartition relativement plus rigide 13 avantageusement discontinue en étant interrompue respectivement à chaque intervalle 12 entre les pavés 11, de façon à ne pas gêner, par leur raideur relative, les déformations thermiques précitées tout en permettant de les suivre. La couche de répartition 13 est assemblée respectivement aux divers éléments composant la couche extrême interne 11, notamment par collage au moment de la préfabrication de ces éléments séparément.The fractionation by division of the inner
Chaque goujon de panneau 4 retient le panneau sandwich correspondant 3 par son écrou de serrage 14 s'appliquant contre la face interne de la plaque de bois contre-plaqué externe 8 par l'intermédiaire d'une plaque 15 également de bois contre-plaqué et en étant vissé au fond d'un évidement du corps de garniture correspondant 5. Le goujon 4 enserre la plaque 15 et une partie de la plaque 8 entre l'écrou 14 et un support métallique 4a vissé au goujon sous la plaque 8.Each panel stud 4 retains the
Les différentes plaques et couches constituant les panneaux sandwich 3 sont toutes collées les unes contre les autres au moment de la préfabrication, la plaque externe en bois contre-plaqué 8 étant alors collée contre les bandes de mastic 2 après fixation des panneaux sandwich 3 à la paroi externe 1.The various plates and layers constituting the
La plaque interne 10 et les couvre-joints 6 sont constitués par un matériau stratifié à trois couches jointives décrit en détail notamment dans le brevet français No. 2 302 982 au nom de la demanderesse. La barrière secondaire comprenant la plaque externe 10 est noyée dans le panneau sandwich 3 de façon à être espacée de la face d'appui de la barrière primaire 7.The
Chaque panneau sandwich 3 comporte, le long de chaque bord adjacent à un panneau sandwich voisin, une feuillure 16 créant un épaulement 17 laissant à découvert une bande marginale correspondante de la barrière secondaire 10. La bande de barrière couvre-joint 6 chevauche les épaulements 17 en regard des deux panneaux sandwich voisins 3 et est fixée de façon étanche par exemple par collage contre les épaulements en recouvrant la garniture de joint 5 pour établir la continuité de la barrière secondaire. Le pavé 11, situé au-dessus de la garniture de joint correspondante 5, comble la cavité définie par les feuillures correspondantes 16 de deux panneaux sandwich voisins 3(comme représenté en traits mixtes sur la figure) afin de rétablir la continuité de la face d'appui de la barrière primaire 7. Afin de mieux faire comprendre certaines particularités du dispositif de l'invention, ce pavé 11 est représenté sur la figure partiellement en retrait de sa cavité de logement, étant bien entendu que ce pavé est en réalité entièrement logé dans cette cavité pour assurer la continuité précitée de la face d'appui de la barrière primaire.Each
Selon l'invention, chaque garniture de joint intercalaire 5 est montée dans l'interstice entre deux couches intermédiaires adjacentes 9 et est collée, une fois montée par ses faces extrêmes opposées respectivement supérieure et inférieure à la plaque 15 et à la bande couvre-joint 6 mais aucune liaison latérale adhérente de la garniture aux bords longitudinaux des couches intermédiaires 9 n'est prévue. Il est à noter que la liaison par collage de la face inférieure du corps de garniture 5 est effectuée à partir d'une colle épaisse du type résine chargée pour permettre ainsi lors de la préfabrication de coller le corps contre le fond de son logement entre deux panneaux adjacents 9, tandis que la face extrême supérieure de ce corps, lorsque celui-ci est définitivement monté, se trouve en affleurement avec les faces planes internes des couches intermédiaires 9.According to the invention, each
Chaque garniture de joint intercalaire 5 comprend, à chacun de ses côtés en regard des bords longitudinaux des couches intermédiaires 9, au moins un joint latéral 18 constitué d'un matériau isolant souple comprimé ou expansible logé dans un évidement correspondant 19 du corps de la garniture de joint 5. Chaque joint latéral 18 est lié par exemple par collage au corps de garniture au moment de la préfabrication. A la position de montage, représentée sur la figure, de la garniture de joint 5 entre les deux couches intermédiaires adjacentes 9, chaque joint latéral 18 est en appui pressé libre contre la couche intermédiaire voisine.Each
Avantageusement, chaque joint latéral 18 est constitué par un tampon de laine de verre revêtu extérieurement, sauf sur sa face extrême tournée vers la barrière secondaire 6, 10, d'une feuille 20 de matière étanche au liquide froid et perméable au gaz et ayant de bonnes propriétés de tenue cryogénique. Cette feuille de matière étanche peut être par exemple une feuille de papier Kraft, chaque tampon étant ainsi constitué par une bande de laine de verre revêtue sur sa face de papier Kraft et repliée transversalement en U. Chaque tampon 18 agit comme une gouttière de retenue du liquide de fluide à travers la barrière secondaire mais permet, grâce à la porosité perméable au gaz, l'équilibrage des pressions gazeuses dans le joint latéral, une détection rapide et facile des fuites ainsi qu'un dégazage de la structure, soit par balayage simple avec un gaz inerte, soit en effectuant des cycles alternés de mise sous vide suivie d'injection de gaz inerte. De préférence, on prévoit au moins deux de tels tampons superposés de part et d'autre de la garniture de joint intercalaire 5 dans leur évidement 19 correspondant.Advantageously, each
Le pavé interne 11 collé à la bande couvre-joint 6 est revêtu sur sa face externe adjacente à la barrière secondaire 6, 10 d'un tissu 21 de fibre de verre collé sur ladite face externe pour renforcer la résistance mécanique du pavé qui doit réaliser la continuité entre les deux panneaux sandwich adjacents 3. Le pavé 11 est collé contre le fond de sa cavité de logement 16 formé par les épaulements 17 et la face extrême intérieure de la garniture de joint. Avantageusement, le pavé couvre-joint 11 est chanfreiné bilatéralement le long de ces deux arêtes longitudinales externes, comme indiqué par la référence 22, pour créer un espace de décharge de l'excès de colle afin d'éviter des contraintes internes pouvant provoquer une amorce de fissuration.The
