Description
The present invention relates to a cargo hold communication system, and more particularly to a cargo hold communication system in which the temperature and pressure of a cargo hold measured from a plurality of sensors are collected at a gateway and transmitted to a marine automation system to minimize cable lengths, The present invention relates to a communication system of a cargo hold capable of being carried out.
Natural gas is transported in the form of gas through land or sea gas piping or liquefied in the form of liquefied natural gas (LNG) or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) It is stored on the transport and transported to the remote consumer. Liquefied natural gas is obtained by cooling natural gas at cryogenic temperatures (approximately -163 ° C), and its volume is reduced to approximately 1/600 of that of natural gas, making it well suited for long-distance transport through the sea.
LNG transports for loading LNG on land with the LNG loaded on land, or LNG RV (Regasification for loading LNG on natural gas) Vessel) includes a cryogenic storage tank of liquefied natural gas.
In recent years, demand for floating floating structures such as LNG FPSO (Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading) and LNG FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) has been increasing steadily. LNG carrier or LNG RV And a storage tank to be installed.
LNG FPSO is a floating marine structure that is used to liquefy natural gas produced directly from the sea and store it in a storage tank and, if necessary, to transfer the LNG stored in this storage tank to an LNG carrier. In addition, the LNG FSRU is a floating type of floating structure that stores LNG unloaded from LNG carriers in offshore sea, stores it in a storage tank, vaporizes LNG if necessary, and supplies the LNG to the customer.
In this way, a storage tank (hereinafter referred to as 'cargo hold') for storing LNG in a cryogenic condition is provided in a marine structure such as LNG carrier, LNG carrier, LNG RV, LNG FPSO and LNG FSRU, Respectively.
This cargo hold can be classified as an independent type and a membrane type depending on whether the load of the cargo directly acts on the insulation. Typically, membrane-type cargo holds are divided into GT NO 96 type and TGZ Mark III type, and stand-alone cargo holds are divided into MOSS type and IHI-SPB type.
The aforementioned GT and TGZ type tank structures are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,035,795, 6,378,722, 5,586,513, and U.S. Patent Publication No. 2003-0000949, Korean Patent Laid-open Nos. 10-2000-0011347 and 10-2000- 0011346 and the like.
1 shows an example of a conventional membrane type LNG cargo hold used for storing LNG. 1, a conventional membrane type LNG cargo hold 10 for storing LNG has a
It is very important to monitor the temperature and pressure of the cargo hold because the LNG carrier with the membrane type LNG cargo holds the -163 degree liquefied natural gas in the cargo hold.
Conventional LNG carriers were sent to the ship automation system (IAS) by connecting the temperature and pressure sensors (RTD / PT) installed in the cargo hold with individual cables, so many production / design cycles were introduced.
In particular, the temperature and pressure sensors installed in the cargo hold are all connected by separate cables to transmit the analog signals to the ship's automation system (IAS), which complicates the terminal wiring work by the analog transmission method. In order to secure stability in explosion- Individual cables connecting ship automation systems had to be explosion-proof cables in accordance with EX-i requirements and cable trays had to be installed even when non-wide-width cables were used.
Therefore, it is necessary to have a cargo hold communication system which can minimize individual cables and ensure stability in explosion-proof areas.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a cargo hold communication system capable of minimizing a cable and securing stability in an explosion-proof area by collecting the temperature and pressure of a cargo hold measured from a plurality of sensors at a gateway and transmitting it to a ship automation system .
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a hull comprising: And a gateway installed in each of the areas and collecting the temperature and pressure of the cargo hold measured from the plurality of sensors and transmitting the collected temperature and pressure to the marine automation system.
The plurality of sensors may include a first sensor mounted on the double hull and a second sensor mounted on the secondary barrier.
The first sensor is mounted on the outer surface of the inner wall of the hull, and includes a front wall and a rear wall of the cargo hold, an upper wall and a lower wall of the cargo hold, an upper left chamfer and an upper right chamfer, A left side wall and a right side wall of the cargo hold, and a lower left side chamfer and a lower right side chamfer which are inclined from the left side wall and the right side wall, respectively.
The second sensor is mounted on the outer surface of the secondary insulation wall, and a plurality of the sensors can be mounted on the aft side lower surface of the cargo hold.
The plurality of gateways may be mounted between the outer wall of the hull and the inner wall of the hull.
Wherein the gateway comprises: a front gateway and a rear gateway for collecting signals received from a plurality of sensors mounted on the front and rear walls of the cargo hold, and a lower gateway for collecting signals received from a plurality of sensors mounted on a lower wall of the cargo hold, A left gateway collecting signals received from a plurality of sensors mounted on a left wall, upper left chamfer and lower left chamfer of the cargo hold; and a left gateway mounted on the right wall, upper right chamfer and lower right chamfer of the cargo hold And a right gateway for collecting signals received from the plurality of sensors, and a plurality of sensors mounted on the upper wall of the cargo hold may be connected to the front gateway or the rear gateway.
The ship automation system may transmit a self-diagnosis signal to the plurality of sensors via the gateway, receive the self-diagnosis result received from the sensor, and identification information of the sensor to determine whether the sensor is malfunctioning.
According to the embodiment of the present invention, the temperature and pressure of the cargo hold measured from the plurality of sensors are collected at the gateway and transmitted to the marine automation system, thereby minimizing the cable and securing stability in the explosion-proof area.
