Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for driving a cryogenic tunnel, a tunnel of the kind in which products to be cooled or deep-frozen circulate, equipped with means for injecting a cryogenic fluid as well as with means for extracting at flow rate. variable of cold gases resulting from the vaporization of the fluid in the tunnel.
- a cryogenic tunnel is an open system in which products to be cooled or deep-frozen circulate, by generally injecting liquid nitrogen or any other cryogenic fluid which after vaporization must be evacuated from the system in gaseous form.
- the tunnel has an opening for the entry and an opening for the exit of the products.
- the cryogenic liquid enters the tunnel through one or more pipes.
- One or more additional openings are generally dedicated to the extraction of cold gases resulting from the vaporization of the fluid in the tunnel, which therefore supposes suction and rejection of gases containing a high proportion of nitrogen in the open air.
- the extraction flow rate is much higher than the flow of nitrogen gas generated by the injection of liquid nitrogen.
- the extraction flow is greater than the flow of nitrogen gas generated by the injection of liquid nitrogen - on the product outlet side: the air inlet flow rate is slightly positive, with more or less significant variations depending on the operating phases of the tunnel, while the gas outlet flow rate is slightly negative on average, again with variations more or less important depending on the operating phases of the tunnel.
- the extraction rate must follow the requirement as exactly as possible, taking into account any delays between the injection of liquid nitrogen and the time when it vaporizes. - concerning the gas balance between the exit and the entry of the tunnel: the system must make it possible to guide the gases to prevent that they do not leave either in entry or exit of tunnel.
- the subject of the invention is a method for driving a cryogenic tunnel in which products to be cooled or deep-frozen circulate, a tunnel equipped with means for injecting a cryogenic fluid and also with means for extracting at a flow rate.
- variable of all or part of the cold gases resulting from the vaporization of said fluid in the tunnel characterized in that: a) there is at least one temperature probe located outside the tunnel near its entrance and / or of its output, capable of providing a value T in tr ée / so rti e of the temperature of the gases at its location point; b) there is at least one temperature probe situated outside the tunnel capable of providing a value T amb of the ambient temperature of the room where the tunnel operates; c) determining the difference T am b-input / output between said ambient temperature T am b and said temperature T ⁇ input / output > or the difference between the average of the ambient temperatures supplied by said ambient temperature probes and the average of said T ⁇ inlet / outlet temperatures supplied by said inlet / outlet temperature probes; d) the value of the temperature difference provided by step c) is compared with a predetermined setpoint value T ° a mb-input ⁇ / output; e) as a function of the result of the comparison
- the Applicant has therefore highlighted the fundamental role of taking into account the ambient temperature of the room where the tunnel operates in obtaining quality pipe. It is understood that the room temperature sensor should preferably be placed in a place where the temperature is not influenced by the tunnel or by any other machine or ventilation system present in the room in question.
- - PID type regulation is used to carry out said feedback from step e).
- step j) the value of the temperature difference provided by step j) is compared with a predetermined set value T 0 SO input-input;
- step k we feed back, depending on the result of the comparison of step k), on the orientation of all or part of said balancing flaps in order to orient all or part of the cold gases contained in the tunnel to thus restore if necessary the value of said temperature difference at the level of said setpoint T ° S orti ⁇ - ⁇ ntré ⁇ -
- extraction means on which one feeds back comprise a single extraction duct situated inside the tunnel, substantially above the product entry zone.
- the invention also relates to a device for driving a cryogenic tunnel in which products to be cooled or deep-frozen circulate, a tunnel equipped with means for injecting a cryogenic fluid as well as means for extracting all or part at a variable flow rate.
- cold gases resulting from the vaporization of said fluid in the tunnel comprising: a) at least one temperature probe located outside the tunnel near its inlet and / or its outlet, capable of providing a value T ent r é ⁇ / sor t i ⁇ of the temperature of the gases at its location point; b) at least one temperature probe situated outside the tunnel capable of providing a value T amb of the ambient temperature of the room where the tunnel operates; c) an acquisition unit and information processing apparatus capable of determining the difference T am - e ntry / sorti ⁇ between said ambient temperature T amb and the said temperature T ent ed r / sorti ⁇ , or the difference between the average of the ambient temperatures provided by said ambient temperature probes and the average of said inlet /
- the information acquisition and processing unit uses, to carry out said feedback, a PID type regulator.
- the device comprises, inside the tunnel, one or more gas balancing flaps, capable of directing the cold gases towards the entrance or exit of the tunnel, and actuable automatically from outside the tunnel .
- the device also comprises: i) at least one temperature probe located outside the tunnel near its exit, capable of providing a value T SO rtie of the temperature of the gases in its location point and at least one temperature probe located outside the tunnel near its entrance capable of providing a value Ten t r ée of the temperature of the gases at its location point; j) an acquisition unit and information processing apparatus capable of determining the difference T SO rt- ⁇ ntr ⁇ e between said temperature T SW rti ⁇ and said temperature T ⁇ n tree, or the difference between the average temperature T SO rt provided by said output probes and the average temperature of the said temperatures T ⁇ n tré ⁇ provided by said entrance temperature probes, comparing the value of the temperature difference supplied by the preceding step with a predetermined set value T ° out IE- input e, and RETROACTIVE where appropriate, depending on the result of the previous comparison on all or part of the orientation of said balancing flaps in order to direct some or all of the cold gases contained in
- extraction means on which one feeds back comprise a single extraction duct situated inside the tunnel, substantially above the product entry zone.
- the present invention also relates to a cryogenic tunnel integrating such pipe means as described above.
- FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a tunnel of the prior art
- FIG. 1 illustrates the typical structure of a cryogenic tunnel 1 in which products to be cooled or deep-frozen circulate (inlet 7 of the products, outlet 8 of the processed products), tunnel equipped with means 2 for injecting a cryogenic fluid as well as several means 3 for extracting the cold gases resulting from the vaporization of the fluid in the tunnel.
- means 2 for injecting a cryogenic fluid
- means 3 for extracting the cold gases resulting from the vaporization of the fluid in the tunnel.
- the air inlets in the tunnel are represented by the arrows 5 and by the arrows 6 the gas outlets from the tunnel (here again at the inlet or at the outlet).
- a temperature probe 21 located outside the tunnel near its entrance, capable of providing a value T in entry of the temperature of the gases at its location, a temperature probe 22 located outside the tunnel near its exit, capable of providing a value T SO rtie of the temperature of the gases at its location point, as well as a temperature probe 23 located at the outside of the tunnel capable of providing a value T amb of the ambient temperature of the room where the tunnel operates.
- proximity of one or other of the probes according to the invention must be understood as a reasonable distance for the value temperature supplied is representative of the phenomena of air entry or cold gas leakage, so typically an order of magnitude of a few millimeters to a few tens of millimeters from the entrance or exit door of the tunnel will be very suitable for the implementation of the present invention.
- a unit 30 capable of acquiring and processing information (see in the figure the dashed and mixed dashed-dotted arrows):
- unit 30 is also suitable according to one of the embodiments of the invention:
- the unit 30 determines the difference T-SO rt ⁇ e input é e between Tsortie temperature (22) and the Tinput temperature (21), and compares with a predetermined set value T ° S orti ⁇ -entrance- If gas movements in the tunnel go from the front to the back, there will be air inlet at the tunnel entrance, T ⁇ ntr ⁇ e will go up, there will also be cold gas outlet at the tunnel exit and T SO r t i ⁇ will fall. Overall, the movement of gas from front to back will result in
- gas balancing flaps 20 deflect the turbulence created by the fans and make it possible to direct the cold gases towards the entrance or exit of the tunnel as required.
- temperature setpoints will be used - whether for the inlet or the outlet - more or less below ambient temperature, in practice preferably close to 0 ° C.
