Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a tank system and a ship.
- PTL 1 discloses loading a liquefied gas such as LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) into a tank through a gas loading pipe system.
- LNG Liquified Natural Gas
- the pressure of a triple point (hereinafter referred to as triple point pressure) at which a gas phase, a liquid phase, and a solid phase coexist is higher than the triple point pressure of LNG or LPG. Therefore, the triple point pressure becomes close to the operating pressure of the tank.
- triple point pressure a triple point at which a gas phase, a liquid phase, and a solid phase coexist. Therefore, the triple point pressure becomes close to the operating pressure of the tank.
- the liquefied carbon dioxide is contained in the tank, for the following reasons, there is a possibility that the liquefied carbon dioxide may be solidified to generate dry ice.
- the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide becomes equal to or lower than the triple point pressure in the pipe top portion of the loading pipe where the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide becomes the lowest, or the liquefied carbon dioxide evaporates, and due to the evaporation latent heat thereof, the temperature of the liquefied carbon dioxide remaining without evaporating is lowered, so that there is a possibility that the liquefied carbon dioxide may be solidified to generate dry ice.
- the present disclosure has been made in order to solve the above problem, and has an object to provide a tank system and a ship, in which it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in a loading pipe and smoothly perform the operation of a tank.
- a tank system comprising: a tank that contains liquefied carbon dioxide therein; a loading pipe extending in a vertical direction, having a lower end that is open into the tank, and through which liquefied carbon dioxide that is supplied from an outside of the tank is fed from the lower end into the tank; and a pipe pressure resistance part that is provided close to the lower end with respect to a pipe top portion that is located at a highest position in the loading pipe, and generating a pressure loss in the liquefied carbon dioxide flowing through the loading pipe, characterized in that the pipe pressure resistance part generates a pressure loss that is determined such that a value obtained by subtracting a pressure corresponding to a height difference between a liquid level of the liquefied carbon dioxide in the tank and the pipe top portion from a value obtained by adding the pressure loss that is generated by the pipe pressure resistance part to a tank operating pressure exceeds a setting pressure lower limit value obtained by adding a safety margin value to a triple point pressure value of the liquefied carbon
- a ship according to the present disclosure includes a hull, and the tank system as described above, which is provided in the hull.
- a ship 1A of an embodiment of the present disclosure carries liquefied carbon dioxide or various liquefied gases including liquefied carbon dioxide.

- the hull 2 has a pair of broadsides 3A and 3B forming an outer shell thereof, a ship bottom (not shown), and an upper deck 5.
- the broadsides 3A and 3B are provided with a pair of broadside outer plates forming the left and right broadsides respectively.
- the ship bottom (not shown) is provided with a ship bottom outer plate connecting the broadsides 3A and 3B. Due to the pair of broadsides 3A and 3B and the ship bottom (not shown), the outer shell of the hull 2 has a U-shape in a cross-section orthogonal to a bow-stern direction Da.
- the upper deck 5 is an all-deck that is exposed to the outside.
- a superstructure 7 having an accommodation space is formed on the upper deck 5 on the stern 2b side.
- a tank system storage compartment (a hold) 8 is formed on the bow 2a side with respect to the superstructure (the accommodation space) 7.
- the tank system storage compartment 8 is a closed compartment that is recessed toward the ship bottom (not shown) below the upper deck 5 and protrudes upward or has the upper deck 5 as a ceiling.
- the tank system 20A includes a tank 21, a loading pipe 25, and a pipe pressure resistance part 30A.
- each tank 21 has, for example, a cylindrical shape extending in the horizontal direction (specifically, the bow-stern direction).
- the tank 21 contains liquefied carbon dioxide L inside.
- the tank 21 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and the tank 21 may be a spherical shape or the like.
- the loading pipe 25 loads the liquefied carbon dioxide L, which is supplied from the outside such as a liquefied carbon dioxide supply facility on land or a bunker ship, into the tank 21.
- the loading pipe 25 in this embodiment is inserted into the tank 21 by penetrating the upper portion of the tank 21 from the outside of the tank 21.
- the loading pipe 25 extends in an up-down direction Dv in the tank 21.
- a lower end 25b of the loading pipe 25 is open in the tank 21.
- the loading pipe 25 discharges the liquefied carbon dioxide L that is supplied from the outside into the tank 21 from the lower end 25b.
- a pipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position is disposed outside the tank 21.
- the lower end 25b of the loading pipe 25 is disposed in the vicinity of a bottom portion of the tank 21.
- the vicinity of the bottom portion is a position closer to the bottom portion than the center of the tank 21 in the up-down direction Dv.
- Fig. 2 illustrates a situation in which the lower end 25b of the loading pipe 25 is submerged in the liquefied carbon dioxide L stored in the tank 21. Further, in Fig. 2 , the lower end 25b is open downward. However, the opening direction thereof is not limited to the downward direction.
- the pipe pressure resistance part 30A acts as a pipe pressure resistance on the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through the loading pipe 25.
- the pipe pressure resistance part 30A is provided on the lower end 25b side with respect to the pipe top portion 25t which is located at the highest position in the loading pipe 25.

- This application claims the right of priority based on
Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-231720 filed with the Japan Patent Office on December 22, 2019 - PTL 1 discloses loading a liquefied gas such as LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) into a tank through a gas loading pipe system.

- [PTL 1]
Japanese Patent No. 5769445 -
[PTL 2]
US2016/129976 describing a liquefied natural gas (LNG) transportation apparatus for reducing boil-off gas. - Incidentally, there is a demand for carrying liquefied carbon dioxide by using a tank as in PTL 1. In the liquefied carbon dioxide, the pressure of a triple point (hereinafter referred to as triple point pressure) at which a gas phase, a liquid phase, and a solid phase coexist is higher than the triple point pressure of LNG or LPG. Therefore, the triple point pressure becomes close to the operating pressure of the tank. In a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide is contained in the tank, for the following reasons, there is a possibility that the liquefied carbon dioxide may be solidified to generate dry ice.
- In the tank containing the liquefied gas as in PTL 1, there is a case where a lower end of a loading pipe, which is open in the tank, is disposed at a lower portion in the tank. With such disposition, the vicinity of the opening of the loading pipe is pressurized with an increase in liquid head. Therefore, flash evaporation of the liquefied gas discharged from the opening of the loading pipe can be suppressed. However, in a pipe top portion disposed at the highest position of the loading pipe, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide inside is reduced by the amount corresponds to the height difference between the pipe lower end and the pipe top portion with respect to the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide at the pipe lower end.
- As a result, depending on the tank operating pressure, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide becomes equal to or lower than the triple point pressure in the pipe top portion of the loading pipe where the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide becomes the lowest, or the liquefied carbon dioxide evaporates, and due to the evaporation latent heat thereof, the temperature of the liquefied carbon dioxide remaining without evaporating is lowered, so that there is a possibility that the liquefied carbon dioxide may be solidified to generate dry ice.
- Then, in this manner, if dry ice is generated in the loading pipe, the flow of the liquefied carbon dioxide in the loading pipe is obstructed, so that there is a possibility that the operation of the tank may be affected.
- The present disclosure has been made in order to solve the above problem, and has an object to provide a tank system and a ship, in which it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in a loading pipe and smoothly perform the operation of a tank.
- In order to solve the above problem, there is provided a tank system comprising: a tank that contains liquefied carbon dioxide therein; a loading pipe extending in a vertical direction, having a lower end that is open into the tank, and through which liquefied carbon dioxide that is supplied from an outside of the tank is fed from the lower end into the tank; and a pipe pressure resistance part that is provided close to the lower end with respect to a pipe top portion that is located at a highest position in the loading pipe, and generating a pressure loss in the liquefied carbon dioxide flowing through the loading pipe, characterized in that the pipe pressure resistance part generates a pressure loss that is determined such that a value obtained by subtracting a pressure corresponding to a height difference between a liquid level of the liquefied carbon dioxide in the tank and the pipe top portion from a value obtained by adding the pressure loss that is generated by the pipe pressure resistance part to a tank operating pressure exceeds a setting pressure lower limit value obtained by adding a safety margin value to a triple point pressure value of the liquefied carbon dioxide.

Figs. 1 to 3 . - As shown in
Fig. 1 , aship 1A of an embodiment of the present disclosure carries liquefied carbon dioxide or various liquefied gases including liquefied carbon dioxide. Theship 1A includes at least ahull 2 and atank system 20A. - The
hull 2 has a pair ofbroadsides upper deck 5. Thebroadsides broadsides broadsides hull 2 has a U-shape in a cross-section orthogonal to a bow-stern direction Da. Theupper deck 5 is an all-deck that is exposed to the outside. In thehull 2, asuperstructure 7 having an accommodation space is formed on theupper deck 5 on the stern 2b side. - In the
hull 2, a tank system storage compartment (a hold) 8 is formed on thebow 2a side with respect to the superstructure (the accommodation space) 7. The tank system storage compartment 8 is a closed compartment that is recessed toward the ship bottom (not shown) below theupper deck 5 and protrudes upward or has theupper deck 5 as a ceiling. - As shown in
Fig. 2 , thetank system 20A includes atank 21, aloading pipe 25, and a pipepressure resistance part 30A. - As shown in
Fig. 1 , a plurality oftanks 21 are provided in the tank system storage compartment 8. In this embodiment, for example, a total of seventanks 21 are provided in the tank system storage compartment 8. The layout and the number oftanks 21 installed in the tank system storage compartment 8 are not limited in any way. In this embodiment, eachtank 21 has, for example, a cylindrical shape extending in the horizontal direction (specifically, the bow-stern direction). Thetank 21 contains liquefied carbon dioxide L inside. - The
tank 21 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and thetank 21 may be a spherical shape or the like. - As shown in
Fig. 2 , theloading pipe 25 loads the liquefied carbon dioxide L, which is supplied from the outside such as a liquefied carbon dioxide supply facility on land or a bunker ship, into thetank 21. Theloading pipe 25 in this embodiment is inserted into thetank 21 by penetrating the upper portion of thetank 21 from the outside of thetank 21. Theloading pipe 25 extends in an up-down direction Dv in thetank 21. Alower end 25b of theloading pipe 25 is open in thetank 21. Theloading pipe 25 discharges the liquefied carbon dioxide L that is supplied from the outside into thetank 21 from thelower end 25b. In theloading pipe 25, apipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position is disposed outside thetank 21. - The
lower end 25b of theloading pipe 25 is disposed in the vicinity of a bottom portion of thetank 21. The vicinity of the bottom portion is a position closer to the bottom portion than the center of thetank 21 in the up-down direction Dv.Fig. 2 illustrates a situation in which thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25 is submerged in the liquefied carbon dioxide L stored in thetank 21. Further, inFig. 2 , thelower end 25b is open downward. However, the opening direction thereof is not limited to the downward direction. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30A acts as a pipe pressure resistance on the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25. The pipepressure resistance part 30A is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t which is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. In this embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30A is provided at thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. However, there is no limitation to thelower end 25b. As shown inFig. 3 , the pipepressure resistance part 30A has aflow opening portion 30a through which the liquefied carbon dioxide L flows. Theflow opening portion 30a has an opening area A2 smaller than a flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25. - In this embodiment, the pipe
pressure resistance part 30A is configured using anorifice 31. Theorifice 31 is mounted to thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Theorifice 31 includes aplate portion 31a provided so as to close the opening of thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, and a through-hole 31b formed in theplate portion 31a. The through-hole 31b forms theflow opening portion 30a. The through-hole 31b is formed to penetrate in a plate thickness direction of theplate portion 31a (a pipe axis direction at thelower end 25b of the loading pipe 25). In this embodiment, only one through-hole 31b is formed in the central portion of theplate portion 31a. - A pressure Pc in the
pipe top portion 25t of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 having the pipepressure resistance part 30A provided at thelower end 25b has a value obtained by subtracting a pressure corresponding to the height difference between the liquid level of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thetank 21 and thepipe top portion 25t from a value obtained by adding a pressure loss ΔP that is generated by the pipe pressure resistance part to a tank operating pressure Pt. However, in a case where the dynamic pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 is significant, it is necessary to consider the influence thereof. - In order to prevent the liquefied carbon dioxide L from falling below the triple point pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in the
pipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25, the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t needs to exceed a setting pressure lower limit value Ps of the liquefied carbon dioxide L set in advance, as in the following expression (1). - Here, the setting pressure lower limit value Ps can be a value obtained by adding a safety margin value to the triple point pressure value of the liquefied carbon dioxide L.
- In the pipe
pressure resistance part 30A (the orifice 31), the opening area A2 of theflow opening portion 30a is set so as to satisfy the condition expressed by the above expression (1) by utilizing the fact that the generated pressure loss ΔP increases the pressure Pc in thepipe top portion 25t. - Here, for example, the operating pressure of the
tank 21 is set to be 580 [kPa(G)], the density ρ of the liquefied carbon dioxide L is set to be 1150 [kg/m3], a liquid level height H1 of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thetank 21 is set to be 0 [m], and a height H2 of thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 from atank bottom surface 21b is set to be 30 [m]. Then, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 in a state of having no pipepressure resistance part 30A becomes 242 [kPa(G)]. The triple point pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L is 417 [kPa(G)], and therefore, in a state where the pipepressure resistance part 30A is not provided, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 becomes equal to or lower than the triple point pressure, and thus there is a possibility that dry ice may be generated. - In contrast, in the
loading pipe 25 provided with the pipepressure resistance part 30A, the pressure loss ΔP is generated by the pipepressure resistance part 30A so as to satisfy the above expression (1), and the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t always exceeds the setting pressure lower limit value Ps, and can sufficiently exceed the triple point pressure. - The
tank system 20A of the first embodiment includes thetank 21, theloading pipe 25, and the pipepressure resistance part 30A. The pipepressure resistance part 30A is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. Due to the pipepressure resistance part 30A, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 is increased by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP, and the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L is restrained from approaching the triple point pressure. In this way, it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice due to solidification of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in theloading pipe 25. As a result, in a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide L is contained in thetank 21, it becomes possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 and smoothly perform the operation of thetank 21. - In the
tank system 20A of the first embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30A generates the pressure loss ΔP satisfying the above expression (1). - Therefore, according to the
tank system 20A of the embodiment, an appropriate pressure loss ΔP according to the height H2 of thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 is generated by the pipepressure resistance part 30A to be able to increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L. In this way, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L becomes equal to or higher than the setting pressure lower limit value Ps set according to the triple point pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in the entire area in theloading pipe 25. In this way, it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25. - In the
tank system 20A of the first embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30A is provided at thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. - Therefore, according to the
tank system 20A of the embodiment, due to the pipepressure resistance part 30A provided at thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 is suppressed. Further, the pipepressure resistance part 30A can be additionally provided even with respect to thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25 of the existingtank system 20A. - In the
tank system 20A of the first embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30A (the orifice 31) has theflow opening portion 30a which has the opening area A2 smaller than the flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25 and through which the liquefied carbon dioxide L flows. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30A as described above has a simple configuration having theflow opening portion 30a, and can realize suppression of the generation of dry ice in liquefied carbon dioxide L at low cost. - The
ship 1A of the first embodiment includes thehull 2 and thetank system 20A provided in thehull 2. - Therefore, according to the
ship 1A of the embodiment, it is possible to provide theship 1A provided with thetank system 20A in which in a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide L is contained in thetank 21, the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 is suppressed and the operation of thetank 21 can be performed smoothly. - In the first embodiment, a configuration is made in which the
orifice 31 is provided as the pipepressure resistance part 30A. However, there is no limitation thereto. - For example, as shown in
Fig. 4 , aperforated plate 32 may be provided as the pipepressure resistance part 30A. Theperforated plate 32 is mounted to thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Theperforated plate 32 includes aplate portion 32a provided so as to close the opening of thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, and a plurality of (many) through-holes 32b formed in theplate portion 32a. Each of the through-holes 32b penetrates in the plate thickness direction of theplate portion 32a. Theflow opening portion 30a is configured by the plurality of through-holes 32b. In theflow opening portion 30a, a total opening area A3 of the plurality of through-holes 32b is smaller than the flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30A using theperforated plate 32 as described above can increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP. - Further, as shown in
Fig. 5 , aflap 33 may be provided as the pipepressure resistance part 30A. Theflap 33 is mounted on the inside of thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Theflap 33 has a plate shape and is provided to be inclined with respect to a plane orthogonal to a pipe axis direction Dp at thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Theflap 33 is provided to have agap 33b between an outerperipheral edge 33a thereof and an innerperipheral surface 25f of thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Thegap 33b between the outerperipheral edge 33a of theflap 33 and the innerperipheral surface 25f of theloading pipe 25 forms theflow opening portion 30a. An opening area A4 of thegap 33b forming theflow opening portion 30a is smaller than the flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30A using theflap 33 as described above can increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP. - Next, a tank system and a ship according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to
Fig. 6 . In the second embodiment of the present disclosure that is described below, only the position of a pipepressure resistance part 30B is different from that in the first embodiment of the present disclosure, and therefore, the same portions as those in the first embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and overlapping description will be omitted. - As shown in
Fig. 1 , aship 1B of this embodiment carries liquefied carbon dioxide or various liquefied gases including liquefied carbon dioxide. Theship 1B includes at least thehull 2 and atank system 20B. - As shown in
Fig. 6 , thetank system 20B includes thetank 21, theloading pipe 25, and the pipepressure resistance part 30B. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30B can increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss. The pipepressure resistance part 30B is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. In the second embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30B is provided between thepipe top portion 25t and thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. The pipepressure resistance part 30B is provided at a position higher than thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30B is formed using one of the orifice 31 (refer toFig. 3 ), the perforated plate 32 (refer toFig. 4 ), and the flap 33 (refer toFig. 5 ) shown in the first embodiment. The pipepressure resistance part 30B is provided such that the generated pressure loss ΔP satisfies the condition expressed by the above expression (1). - Further, in a case where the pipe
pressure resistance part 30B is provided at a position higher than thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, it is necessary to prevent the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L that has passed through the pipepressure resistance part 30B from falling below the triple point pressure on the lower side (thelower end 25b side) of the pipepressure resistance part 30B. - Therefore, in a case where the pipe
pressure resistance part 30B is provided at a height H [mm] from thetank bottom surface 21b of thetank 21, it is necessary to make the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L at the height H of the pipepressure resistance part 30B exceed the setting pressure lower limit value Ps. - The height H [mm] from the
tank bottom surface 21b where the pipepressure resistance part 30B is installed is limited such that the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L passing through the pipepressure resistance part 30B does not fall below the triple point pressure, in consideration of the fact that the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L decreases according to the height difference between the height H and the liquid level height H1 of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thetank 21. - The
tank system 20B of the second embodiment includes thetank 21, theloading pipe 25, and the pipepressure resistance part 30B. The pipepressure resistance part 30B is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. Due to the pipepressure resistance part 30B, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 is increased by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP, and the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L is restrained from approaching the triple point pressure. As a result, in a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide L is contained in thetank 21, it becomes possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 and smoothly perform the operation of thetank 21. - In the
tank system 20B of the second embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30B generates the pressure loss ΔP satisfying the above expression (1). - Therefore, according to the
tank system 20B of the embodiment, an appropriate pressure loss ΔP according to the height H2 of thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 is generated by the pipepressure resistance part 30B to be able to increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L. In this way, it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice due to solidification of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in theloading pipe 25. - In the
tank system 20B of the second embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30B is higher than thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, and the height H [mm] thereof from thetank bottom surface 21b of thetank 21 is limited such that the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L that has passed through the pipepressure resistance part 30B does not fall below the triple point pressure, in consideration of the fact that the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L decreases according to the height difference between the height H from thetank bottom surface 21b and the liquid level height H1 of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thetank 21. - Therefore, according to the
tank system 20B of the embodiment, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L becomes equal to or higher than the setting pressure lower limit value Ps on the lower side (thelower end 25b side) with respect to the pipepressure resistance part 30B. In this way, it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice due to the occurrence of a pressure drop of the liquefied carbon dioxide L that has passed through the pipepressure resistance part 30B. - The
ship 1B of the second embodiment includes thehull 2 and thetank system 20B provided in thehull 2. - Therefore, according to the
ship 1B of the second embodiment, it is possible to provide theship 1B provided with thetank system 20B in which in a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide L is contained in thetank 21, the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 is suppressed and the operation of thetank 21 can be performed smoothly. - Next, a tank system and a ship according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to
Figs. 7 to 11 . In the third embodiment of the present disclosure that is described below, only the configuration of a pipepressure resistance part 30C is different from those in the first and second embodiments of the present disclosure, and therefore, the same portions as those in the first and second embodiments will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and overlapping description will be omitted. - As shown in
Fig. 1 , aship 1C of this embodiment carries liquefied carbon dioxide or various liquefied gases including liquefied carbon dioxide. Theship 1C includes at least thehull 2 and atank system 20C. - As shown in
Fig. 7 , thetank system 20C includes thetank 21, theloading pipe 25, and a pipepressure resistance part 30C. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30C can increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss. In this embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30C includes acontrol valve 35 and acontrol device 60. - The
control valve 35 of the pipepressure resistance part 30C is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. In the third embodiment, thecontrol valve 35 is provided at thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25. Thecontrol valve 35 may be provided at a position higher than thelower end 25b of theloading pipe 25, as in the second embodiment. - The
control valve 35 shown inFig. 8 makes an opening area A5 of theflow opening portion 30a variable. Thecontrol valve 35 has avalve body 35a rotatably provided in the flow path of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in theloading pipe 25. Thevalve body 35a opens and closes the flow path in theloading pipe 25 by rotating around a valve shaft. Thevalve body 35a increases or decreases agap 35b formed between thevalve body 35a and the innerperipheral surface 25f of theloading pipe 25 by adjusting the opening degree around the valve shaft. Thegap 35b between thevalve body 35a and the innerperipheral surface 25f of theloading pipe 25 forms theflow opening portion 30a. The opening area A5 of thegap 35b forming theflow opening portion 30a is smaller than the flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25. As thecontrol valve 35, it is preferable to use a submersible low-temperature resistant valve that can operate even in the liquefied carbon dioxide L having a low-temperature. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30C using thecontrol valve 35 as described above can increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP. - In the
control valve 35 of the pipepressure resistance part 30C, the opening area A5 of theflow opening portion 30a is set so as to satisfy the condition expressed by the above expression (1) by utilizing the fact that the generated pressure loss ΔP increases the pressure Pc in thepipe top portion 25t. - The
control device 60 adjusts the opening degree of theflow opening portion 30a in thecontrol valve 35. In order to adjust the opening degree of thecontrol valve 35 by thecontrol device 60, thetank system 20C includes a tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and a pipe topportion pressure sensor 52. The tankinternal pressure sensor 51 detects the internal pressure of thetank 21. The pipe topportion pressure sensor 52 detects the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t. - As shown in
Fig. 9 , thecontrol device 60 is a computer that includes a CPU 61 (Central Processing Unit), a ROM 62 (Read Only Memory), a RAM 63 (Random Access Memory), an HDD 64 (Hard Disk Drive), and asignal receiving module 65. Thesignal receiving module 65 receives the detection signals from the tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and the pipe topportion pressure sensor 52. - As shown in
Fig. 10 , theCPU 61 of thecontrol device 60 executes a program stored in theHDD 64, theROM 62, or the like in advance to realize a functional configuration of each of asignal receiving unit 71, an openingdegree control unit 72, and a commandsignal output unit 73. - The
signal receiving unit 71 receives the detection signals from the tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and the pipe topportion pressure sensor 52, that is, the data of the detection value of the internal pressure of thetank 21 in the tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and the detection value of the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t, through thesignal receiving module 65. - The opening
degree control unit 72 executes control for adjusting the opening degree of thecontrol valve 35, based on the detection value in the pipe topportion pressure sensor 52. - The command
signal output unit 73 outputs a command signal for changing the opening degree of thecontrol valve 35 to thecontrol valve 35 under the control of the openingdegree control unit 72. - Next, a procedure for adjusting the opening degree of the
control valve 35 by thecontrol device 60 in thetank system 20C will be described. - As shown in
Fig. 11 , thesignal receiving unit 71 of thecontrol device 60 receives the data of the detection value of the internal pressure (the operating pressure Pt) of thetank 21 in the tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and the detection value of the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t from the tankinternal pressure sensor 51 and the pipe topportion pressure sensor 52 at time intervals set in advance (step S1). - Subsequently, the opening
degree control unit 72 determines whether or not the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t received in step S1 is lower than a threshold value set in advance (for example, the setting pressure lower limit value Ps) (step S2). As a result, if the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t is not lower than the threshold value, the processing returns to step S1. - In step S2, in a case where the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in the
pipe top portion 25t is lower than the threshold value, that is, in a case where the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in thepipe top portion 25t is lower than the setting pressure lower limit value Ps, the openingdegree control unit 72 reduces the opening degree of the control valve 35 (step S3). To this end, the openingdegree control unit 72 outputs a command signal for reducing the opening degree of thevalve body 35a by a predetermined angle to thecontrol valve 35 through the commandsignal output unit 73. After outputting the command signal, thecontrol device 60 ends the processing and returns to step S1. - The
tank system 20C of the above embodiment includes thetank 21, theloading pipe 25, and the pipepressure resistance part 30C. Further, the pipepressure resistance part 30C is provided on thelower end 25b side with respect to thepipe top portion 25t that is located at the highest position in theloading pipe 25. Due to the pipepressure resistance part 30C, the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L flowing through theloading pipe 25 is increased by the amount corresponding to the pressure loss ΔP, and the pressure Pc of the liquefied carbon dioxide L is restrained from approaching the triple point pressure. As a result, in a case where the liquefied carbon dioxide L is contained in thetank 21, it becomes possible to suppress the generation of dry ice in theloading pipe 25 and smoothly perform the operation of thetank 21. - In the
tank system 20C of the above embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30C generates the pressure loss ΔP satisfying the above expression (1). - Therefore, according to the
tank system 20C of the embodiment, an appropriate pressure loss ΔP according to the height H2 of thepipe top portion 25t of theloading pipe 25 is generated by the pipepressure resistance part 30C to be able to increase the pressure of the liquefied carbon dioxide L. In this way, it is possible to suppress the generation of dry ice due to solidification of the liquefied carbon dioxide L in theloading pipe 25. - In the
tank system 20C of the above embodiment, the pipepressure resistance part 30C has theflow opening portion 30a which has the opening area A5 smaller than the flow path cross-sectional area A1 in theloading pipe 25 and through which the liquefied carbon dioxide L flows. - The pipe
pressure resistance part 30C as described above has a simple configuration having theflow opening portion 30a, and can realize suppression of the generation of dry ice in the liquefied carbon dioxide L at low cost. - In the
