Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a double-shell ship tank mounted on a ship and a ship including the double-shell ship tank.
  • a double-shell tank for a liquefied gas is mounted on a ship, such as a liquefied gas carrier.
  • a thermal insulating layer e.g., a vacuum thermal insulating layer
  • the inner shell and the outer shell see Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application Publication No. 2015-4383 , for example.
  • the inner shell includes an inner shell main part storing a liquefied gas and an inner shell dome protruding upward from the inner shell main part
  • the outer shell includes an outer shell main part surrounding the inner shell main part and an outer shell dome surrounding the inner shell dome.
  • the inner shell dome is intended for putting pipes penetrating the inner shell into one place. These pipes are disposed such that they penetrate the inner shell dome and the outer shell dome.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide: a double-shell ship tank capable of restricting the dome-to-dome relative position while allowing the thermal contraction of the inner shell dome; and a ship including the double-shell ship tank.
  • a double-shell ship tank that includes: an inner shell including an inner shell main part for storing a liquefied gas and an inner shell dome protruding upward from the inner shell main part; an outer shell including an outer shell main part surrounding the inner shell main part and an outer shell dome surrounding the inner shell dome; and at least three support mechanisms disposed around the inner shell dome between the inner shell and the outer shell.
  • Each of the support mechanisms includes: a first support member fixed to one of the inner shell and the outer shell, the first support member including a first supporting surface parallel to a reference plane and a central axis of the inner shell dome that is included in the reference plane; a second support member fixed to the other one of the inner shell and the outer shell, the second support member including a second supporting surface facing the first supporting surface; and an insulating member interposed between the first supporting surface and the second supporting surface, the insulating member being fixed to the second supporting surface and configured to slide along the first supporting surface.
  • the one of the first support member and the second support member that is fixed to the inner shell is positioned on the reference plane.
  • the at least three support mechanisms are disposed around the inner shell dome, and the insulating member included in each support mechanism is movable in a direction parallel to the reference plane that includes the central axis of the inner shell dome. This makes it possible to restrict the dome-to-dome relative position while allowing thermal contraction of the inner shell dome in the axial direction and the radial direction.
  • the first support member may be a plate whose one main surface is the first supporting surface
  • the second support member may be a plate whose one main surface is the second supporting surface. According to this configuration, the first support member and the second support member can be fabricated at low cost.
  • the first support member may be fixed to the outer shell dome or the outer shell main part, and the second support member may be fixed to the inner shell dome or the inner shell main part. According to this configuration, the temperature of the first supporting surface is kept at substantially ordinary temperatures. Therefore, the sliding performance between the insulating member and the first supporting surface can be designed under ordinary temperature conditions.
  • the insulating member may be tubular and may extend in a direction orthogonal to the reference plane. According to this configuration, entry of heat from the outside of the outer shell into the inner shell via the insulating member can be suppressed.
  • Each of the support mechanisms may include a first holding member that holds one end of the tubular insulating member and a second holding member that holds another end of the tubular insulating member.
  • the tubular insulating member may be in contact with the first supporting surface via the first holding member, and may be fixed to the second supporting surface via the second holding member. According to this configuration, one end of the simple-shaped tubular insulating member can be readily fixed to the second supporting surface by using the second holding member.
  • the first holding member which holds the other end of the tubular insulating member, can be contacted with the first supporting surface over a large area. This makes it possible to allow the tubular insulating member to make smooth sliding movement together with the first holding member.
  • a lubricating liner may be sandwiched between the first holding member and the first supporting surface. According to this configuration, favorable sliding ability can be obtained with a simple configuration.
  • the insulating member may be made of glass fiber reinforced plastic. According to this configuration, the entry of heat via the insulating member can be further suppressed.
  • the second support member may be a plate whose one main surface and another main surface each serve as the second supporting surface.
  • Each of the support mechanisms may include a pair of the first support members disposed at both sides of the second support member. According to this configuration, each support mechanism alone can restrict the inner shell dome in the circumferential direction.
  • Each of the support mechanisms may include one first support member and one second support member.
  • a positional relationship between the one first support member and the one second support member may be reversed between adjacent support mechanisms among the at least three support mechanisms. This configuration makes it possible to simplify the structure of each support mechanism while restricting the dome-to-dome relative position and restricting the inner shell dome in the circumferential direction, and facilitate position adjustment between the support mechanisms.
  • Each of the support mechanisms may include one first support member and one second support member.
  • the at least three support mechanisms may be four or more support mechanisms, and in each one of at least four pairs of the support mechanisms that are adjacent to each other, a positional relationship between the one first support member and the one second support member may be reversed between the adjacent support mechanisms. This configuration also makes it possible to simplify the structure of each support mechanism while restricting the dome-to-dome relative position and restricting the inner shell dome in the circumferential direction.
  • a space between the inner shell and the outer shell may be a vacuum space. According to this configuration, the liquefied gas can be kept at low temperatures for a long period of time.
  • the inner shell main part may be cylindrical and may extend in a horizontal direction.
  • the at least three support mechanisms may be four support mechanisms that are disposed between the inner shell dome and the outer shell dome, each support mechanism being disposed at a position that is away from the central axis of the inner shell dome in an angular direction of 45 degrees relative to an axial direction of the inner shell main part. According to this configuration, the distances from the inner shell main part to all the support mechanisms can be made equal to each other. Consequently, loads exerted on all the support mechanisms can be made uniform.
  • the present invention provides a ship that includes the above-described double-shell ship tank in any of the foregoing statements.
  • the present invention makes it possible to restrict the dome-to-dome relative position while allowing thermal contraction of the inner shell dome.
  • Fig. 1 shows a double-shell ship tank 2A mounted on a ship 1, such as a liquefied gas carrier, according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
  • the double-shell tank 2A includes an inner shell 3 and an outer shell 4.
  • the outer shell 4 surrounds a space 20 formed around the inner shell 3.
  • the space 20 between the inner shell 3 and the outer shell 4 is a vacuum space.
  • the space 20 between the inner shell 3 and the outer shell 4 may be filled with a gas having low thermal conductivity, such as argon gas.
  • the inner shell 3 includes an inner shell main part 31 storing a liquefied gas and an inner shell dome 32 protruding upward from the inner shell main part 31.
  • the axial direction of the inner shell dome 32 is parallel to the vertical direction.
  • the axial direction of the inner shell dome 32 may be slightly inclined relative to the vertical direction.
  • the inner shell dome 32 is provided with a manhole 30 intended for inspection of the inside of the inner shell.
  • the inner shell main part 31 may be provided with the manhole 30.
  • the inner shell main part 31 is cylindrical and extends in the horizontal direction.
  • the inner shell main part 31 may be spherical or rectangular, for example.
  • the inner shell main part 31 includes: a body portion that extends laterally with a constant cross-sectional shape; and hemispherical sealing portions that seal openings on both sides of the body portion.
  • each sealing portion may have a flat shape perpendicular to the body portion or may be dish-shaped.
  • the liquefied gas stored in the inner shell main part 31 is liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, about -45°C), liquefied ethylene gas (LEG, about -100°C), liquefied natural gas (LNG, about -160°C), liquefied hydrogen (LH 2 , about -250°C), or liquefied helium (LHe, about -270°C).
  • LPG liquefied petroleum gas
  • LEG liquefied ethylene gas
  • LNG liquefied natural gas
  • LH 2 liquefied hydrogen
  • LHe liquefied helium
  • the outer shell 4 includes an outer shell main part 41 surrounding the inner shell main part 31 and an outer shell dome 42 surrounding the inner shell dome 32. That is, the outer shell main part 41 has the shape of the inner shell main part 31, but is larger than the inner shell main part 31, and the outer shell dome 42 has the shape of the inner shell dome 32, but is larger than the inner shell dome 32. Alternatively, the shape of the outer shell dome 42 may be slightly different from the shape of the inner shell dome 32.
  • the outer shell dome 42 is provided with a manhole 40 at a position corresponding to the position of the inner shell dome 32.
  • a pair of outer bases 12 spaced apart from each other in the axial direction of the outer shell main part 41 is provided on a ship bottom 11, and the outer shell main part 41 is supported by the outer bases 12.
  • a pair of inner bases 21 is disposed at positions corresponding to the positions of the outer bases 12.
  • the inner bases 21 support the inner shell main part 31 in such a manner that the inner shell main part 31 is slidable in the axial direction thereof.
  • the inner bases 21 support the inner shell main part 31 in such a slidable manner so as to accommodate thermal contraction of the inner shell main part 31 in the axial direction when the liquefied gas is fed into the inner shell 3.
  • the double-shell tank 2A is provided with various pipes 13, such as a liquefied gas pipe and an electric wire pipe.
  • the pipes 13 penetrate the inner shell dome 32 and the outer shell dome 42. It should be noted that Fig. 1 shows only one pipe that represents the pipes 13.
  • each of the inner shell dome 32 and the outer shell dome 42 has a round sectional shape.
