Abstract
【選択図】 図6
Description
空気を精製するのに最も有効なシステムの1つは、前処理(head end)精製ユニットにおいてガスを処理することである。このシステムは、一方は吸着で稼動し、他方は再生ステップの1つで稼動する2つのシリンダを備えている。
幾つかのサイトに、複数の極低温蒸留ユニットが設置され、必要量のガスを製造する。
120乃至300分の全サイクルにつき、加圧ステップは、一般には5乃至20分間を要する。この期間は、再加圧に利用可能な追加の空気流に依存している。
N個の空気ユニット(N≧2)を備えたサイトでは、N個までの加圧ステップを同時に有する可能性がある。
− 前記ガス混合物は、各装置について、前記複数の塔からなるシステムの上流で、前記吸着ユニットにおいて精製される。
− 前記吸着ユニットの動作は、前記再加圧ステップの全てが異なる期間に行われるように調節される。
− 少なくとも1つの吸着ユニットの前記サイクル時間は、動作の間、前記再加圧ステップが非同時であるように変更される。
前記吸着ユニットは、複数のM/N秒が或る装置のサイクルの最後と他の装置のサイクルの最後との間で経過するように調節され、MはN個の装置についての平均サイクル時間である。
少なくとも1つの吸着ユニットの前記サイクル時間は、その吸着ユニットから流出するガスの温度に従って、及び/又は、その吸着ユニットから流出するガスの組成に従って変更される。
各々の装置毎に、前記吸着ユニットは2つの吸着器を具備するのみである。
図1は、本発明を用いない場合の或る特定の瞬間における同時加圧数を示し、
図2は、本発明を用いた場合の或る特定の瞬間における同時加圧数を示し、
図3及び4は、本発明に係る4つの空気分離装置からなる組についてのサイクル時間の変動を示し、
図5は、吸着シリンダに流入する流れ及びそこから流出する流れの温度の変動を示し、
図6は、本発明に係る4つの空気分離装置の組を示している。
また、本発明は、混合塔の原理によって不純酸素を製造する装置にも適用される。
デルタマックスは、サイクル時間を調整するための最大許容変動である。
それゆえ、我々は、
− ユニット1を時間Oとし、
− ユニット2を時間Pとし、
− ユニット3を時間Qとし、
− パイロットユニット4を時間Rとする。ここで、R=(サイクル時間)−(デルタマックス)=4M−(デルタマックス)である。
M=(サイクル時間)/4であるとする。
4M−R+O+A−D=M
P−O+B−A=M
Q−P+C−B=M
R−Q+D−C=M
これらを
A=R−O−3*M+D
B=R−P−2*M+D
C=R−Q−M+D
とする。
これは、D=(−3*R+O+P+Q+6*M)/4を与える。
D=最大(−デルタマックス;最小(+デルタマックス;(−3*R+O+P+Q+6*M)/4))
C=最大(−デルタマックス;最小(+デルタマックス;−3*Q+R+O+P+2*M)/4))
B=最大(−デルタマックス;最小(+デルタマックス;−3*P+Q+R+O−2*M)/4))
A=最大(−デルタマックス;最小(+デルタマックス;−3*O+P+Q+R−6*M)/4))
である。
