Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for supporting an independent, in particular cylindrical, tanks for cryogenic media, in particular liquid natural gas (LNG), in a vertical position in a ship or a stationary plant, such as an off-shore warehouse or a processing station.
  • cryogenic media in particular liquid natural gas (LNG)
  • LNG liquid natural gas
  • Tanks for cryogenic media ie in particular LPG, and the means for their storage are subject to high demands on the construction because of the possibly significant heat movements that occur during loading and unloading of the tanks.
  • LNG places special demands on this because its temperature is lower than that of most technical liquefied gases (eg ethylene has a charge temperature of approx. -100 ° C).
  • cylindrical tanks which may essentially have the shape of a circular cylinder or may also have the shape of two parallel and mutually intersected circular cylinders; The latter are also called bilobe tanks.
  • tanks for cryogenic media are stored in a horizontal position, ie with a horizontal longitudinal axis.
  • Corresponding constructions are mature and generally reliable.
  • horizontal storage has the disadvantage that the available base area in the ship or in the stationary system is poorly used.
  • a vertical tank will have a smaller footprint for the same volume.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a device for storing a tank for cryogenic media in a vertical position, which is simple and reliable.
  • the bottom of the tank from the ship or the plant with an intermediate air space is spaced and a sliding horizontal Relative movement between tank and foundation along a flat interface at or within the thermal insulation layer possible.
  • the invention is therefore based on the idea to support a vertical independent tank so to speak, floating and thermally insulated.
  • the floating support of the tank with the possibility of horizontal relative movements between the tank and a stationary construction or the foundation on the ship or on the system has the consequence that a certain horizontal arrangement of the tank is not necessarily maintained relative to the fixed structure.
  • the tank can emigrate sideways, so to speak. This is evident when storing the tank in a ship because of the movement of the same, but also when stored in stationary systems not excluded because of the thermal movements of the tank, possibly in conjunction with already slight asymmetries of its structure.
  • the sliding relative displacement allows in particular a mechanically particularly robust embodiment, since moving parts are not required.
  • the sliding horizontal relative movement may optionally or also be combined along a planar boundary surface on or within the thermal insulation layer.
  • a displacement along a planar interface of the thermal insulating layer can be realized for example by sliding on the surface of such insulating layer.
  • Horizontal relative movements within the insulating layer can be realized, for example, by partial insulating layers sliding past one another; in other words: here are several thermal insulation layers on each other and are relatively slidably movable.
  • the air space between the bottom of the tank and the ship or the system has a particularly advantageous effect on the thermal insulation of the tank.
  • it is also not necessary to support the tank over a large area and with insulating material.
  • the thermal insulating layer of the device according to the invention preferably has a pressure and shear-resistant material so that it can withstand not only the load of the filled tank, but also the frictional forces that can occur in relative temperature-induced relative movements.

  • the tank rests virtually floating with the bearing flanges on a fixed, surrounding the tank foundation, with the interposition of a thermal insulating layer, which protects not only the fixed construction parts on the part of the ship or the stationary system from the cold of the filled tank but at the same time allowing the horizontal relative movement between the bearing flanges and the foundation, which is necessary to allow the thermal expansion and shrinkage of the tank against the foundation.
  • the bearing flanges are arranged at the same height relative to the longitudinal axis of the tank and are each supported on the corresponding foundation.
  • This may be, for example, a foundation that surrounds the tank in a ring-shaped manner, or it may also be a base spaced apart from one another.
  • Structurally preferred is the combination of several bearing flanges to a continuous in the circumferential direction of the tank ring flange in conjunction with separate foundations or, more preferably, also in the circumferential direction continuous annular foundation.
  • the support comprises a plurality of feet, which are arranged on the outside of the tank in the region of the bottom of the tank and in which the Support feet with their contact surfaces on a foundation on the side of the ship or the system via a thermal insulation layer that allows horizontal relative movements between the tank and the foundation.
  • the feet can be attached approximately to the tank bottom.
  • the tank rests quasi-floating with several feet on a stationary foundation below the tank, with the interposition of a thermal insulating layer, which protects not only the stationary construction parts on the part of the ship or the stationary system from the cold of the filled tank, but at the same time allowing the horizontal relative movement between feet and foundation necessary to allow thermal expansion and shrinkage of the tank from the foundation.
  • the bottom of the tank is flat, the feet are all the same height and are also the contact surfaces of the feet flat and all lying in a plane.
  • the bottom of the tank has a stiffener. It is particularly preferred if this stiffener is self-supporting.
  • a corresponding embodiment is particularly robust, without increasing the complexity too much.
  • Structurally preferred is a design of the stiffening of the bottom of the tank as a support grid, wherein the feet can be arranged at the intersections of the support grid.
  • the stiffening of the floor can be realized so particularly weight-saving.
  • the support grid may have, based on its center or its centers, extending in the radial direction and running in the tangential direction carrier.
  • the device comprises at least two outwardly projecting from the tank guide elements which are arranged in the circumferential direction of the tank at an angle to each other and each having an axial extent whose imaginary extension passes through a predetermined, same for all guide elements, imaginary longitudinal axis of the tank.
  • the guide elements each interact with a stationary guide on the side of the ship or the system. In this case, the guide elements can perform horizontal relative movements along their respective axial direction; not to this, however.
  • the tank is fixed in the horizontal direction so that a predetermined, imaginary longitudinal axis of the same spatially, that is fixed with respect to the stationary construction, without thereby the necessary relative mobility between the tank and foundation is limited.
  • the outwardly projecting guide elements such as bolts, are attached to the tank so that the imaginary extension of its axial extent, in the case of bolts of its longitudinal axis, passes through the predetermined, vertical imaginary longitudinal axis, "on which" to hold the tank spatially As a rule, but not necessarily, this will be the central longitudinal axis of the tank, and in any case preferably a longitudinal axis, in the area of which the connections of the tank to the filling and emptying ducts are located.

  • each of the sets has three or more guide elements arranged at equal angles to each other relative to the circumference of the tank.
  • the guide elements of the first of these sets are at the level of the support; the tank is supported by bearing flanges, ie at the level of the bearing flanges, and the tank is supported at its bottom, at the level of the floor.
  • the tank is supported by feet at its bottom, it is preferable to guide a guide element vertically downwards out of the bottom of the tank and to let it cooperate with a stationary guide in the foundation on which the tank is supported.
  • a guide in any case, there is also a sufficient horizontal mobility of the tank.
  • a bolt attached to the bottom of the tank engages along the longitudinal direction of the tank into a corresponding recess of the stationary foundation below the tank.
  • the guide elements alone can not prevent the tank from being able to lift off the foundation when an external force is exerted, for example during a ship movement.
  • the device preferably also has a lift-off, which can prevent the lifting of the tank from the foundation.
