Description
本発明は、タービン膨張により寒冷を発生させるタービン型冷凍機の冷凍能力制御装置に関するものである。 The present invention relates to refrigerating capacity system GoSo location of the turbine refrigerator for generating cold by turbine expansion.
従来、クライオスタット(低温容器:液体窒素貯蔵槽)内の液体窒素を、サブクール状態にするためには、ヘリウム冷凍機が用いられている。
ところで、熱負荷が変動する冷凍機内にある冷媒の温度を一定に保つためには、冷凍機の冷凍能力調整機構が必要とされる。そこで、冷凍負荷の変動にかかわらず、寒冷発生用の膨張機を常時安定して効率良く運転するために、膨張機の入口圧力を検出し、この検出圧力に基づいて膨張機の入口流量を制御すると同時に、JT弁(ジュールトムソン弁:流路に大きな絞りを与えることにより、流体を断熱膨張させ、流体の温度を低温まで下げる働きをする弁)出口側の冷媒を低圧ラインにおいて膨張機よりも高圧側の熱交換器の入口側に供給し、膨張機の入口温度を検出してこの入口温度を予め定めた目標温度に近づけるように膨張弁出口側の冷媒の供給量を制御するようにした液化冷凍装置の運転制御方法が提案されている(下記特許文献1)。
By the way, in order to keep the temperature of the refrigerant in the refrigerator in which the thermal load fluctuates constant, a refrigerating capacity adjustment mechanism of the refrigerator is required. Therefore, regardless of fluctuations in the refrigeration load, the inlet pressure of the expander is detected and the inlet flow rate of the expander is controlled based on this detected pressure in order to operate the expander for generating cold constantly and efficiently. At the same time, the JT valve (Joule Thomson valve: a valve that works to adiabatic expansion of the fluid by giving a large throttle to the flow path and lowering the temperature of the fluid to a low temperature) makes the refrigerant on the outlet side of the low-pressure line more than the expander. The refrigerant is supplied to the inlet side of the high pressure side heat exchanger, the inlet temperature of the expander is detected, and the refrigerant supply amount on the outlet side of the expansion valve is controlled so that the inlet temperature approaches a predetermined target temperature. An operation control method of a liquefaction refrigeration apparatus has been proposed (
クライオスタット内の液体窒素に浸漬冷却されている高温超電導コイルに交流電流を流すとAC(交流)ロスにより熱負荷が発生する。この熱負荷は電流量により変動するため、上記したように、クライオスタットの冷却温度を一定に保つためには、冷凍機の冷凍能力を調整する必要がある。
現在、タービン型の冷凍機はMWクラスの大容量タイプが主流であり、上記したように、このクラスのものでは膨張容量を可変として負荷変動に対応する技術が報告されている(上記特許文献1)。しかし、例えば、鉄道車両用主変圧器用の1〜5kWクラスの小型タービン型冷凍機では、タービンの羽が小さくなること、タービン回転数が多くなることから、膨張容量を可変とする方式を採用することは困難といわれている。また、タービン入口圧力を変化させる方式では、冷凍能力の変動が激しくなり、数Wの負荷変動に追随できるものではない。
When an alternating current is passed through a high-temperature superconducting coil that is immersed and cooled in liquid nitrogen in the cryostat, a thermal load is generated due to an AC (alternating current) loss. Since this thermal load varies depending on the amount of current, as described above, in order to keep the cooling temperature of the cryostat constant, it is necessary to adjust the refrigerating capacity of the refrigerator.
At present, turbine-type refrigerators are mainly MW class large-capacity types, and as described above, technologies of this class corresponding to load fluctuations with variable expansion capacity have been reported (Patent Document 1). ). However, for example, in a 1 to 5 kW class small-sized turbine refrigerator for a main transformer for a railway vehicle, since the turbine blades are reduced and the turbine rotational speed is increased, a method of making the expansion capacity variable is adopted. That is said to be difficult. Further, in the method of changing the turbine inlet pressure, the refrigeration capacity fluctuates severely and cannot follow a load fluctuation of several watts.
本発明は、上記状況に鑑みて、一般に定常状態で冷凍発生能力も一定で運転されるタービン膨張機の、入口圧力、容量を変化させることなく、的確に冷凍機の冷凍能力を調整することができる冷凍能力の高いタービン型冷凍機の冷凍能力制御装置を提供することを目的とする。 In view of the above situation, the present invention can accurately adjust the refrigeration capacity of a refrigerator without changing the inlet pressure and capacity of a turbine expander that is generally operated in a steady state with a constant refrigeration generation capacity. and to provide a refrigerating capacity system GoSo location of high refrigerating capacity turbine refrigerator possible.
本発明は、上記目的を達成するために、

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides

According to the present invention, the following effects can be achieved.
(1) Generally, the refrigeration capacity of the refrigerator can be adjusted accurately without changing the inlet pressure and capacity of a turbine expander that is operated in a steady state with a constant refrigeration generation capacity.
(2) JT expansion (Joule Thompson expansion: a phenomenon in which when the gas is expanded below a certain temperature, the temperature of the gas decreases), by using it for the purpose of raising the temperature, It is suitable for a 5 kW class small turbine refrigerator.
熱負荷が変動するクライオスタット内にある冷媒の温度を一定に保つためには、冷凍機の冷凍能力調整機構が必要とされる。そこで、タービン膨張機の高圧入り口側に、並列してJT弁を具備し、断熱自由膨張されヘリウムガスを、タービン膨張によって冷却されたガスヘリウムと合流させ、この冷凍能力調整を行う。 In order to keep the temperature of the refrigerant in the cryostat where the thermal load fluctuates constant, a refrigeration capacity adjustment mechanism for the refrigerator is required. Therefore, a JT valve is provided in parallel on the high-pressure inlet side of the turbine expander, and the helium gas that is adiabatic and free-expanded is merged with gas helium cooled by the turbine expansion to adjust the refrigeration capacity.
