Description
본 발명은 베이퍼라이저 및 열교환기 통합형 증발 가스 재액화 시스템에 관한 것으로서, 보다 구체적으로는, 액화 연료에서 발생되는 증발가스(BOG)를 다수의 열 교환기를 통해 재액화시켜 효과적으로 재활용되도록 하며, 특히 열교환기와 메인 엔진으로 공급되는 액화 연료를 가온하는 베이퍼라이저를 일체형으로 통합함으로써, 증발 가스 재액화 설비를 보다 컴팩트하게 구현할 수 있도록 하는 베이퍼라이저 및 열교환기 통합형 증발 가스 재액화 시스템에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a vaporizer and heat exchanger integrated boil-off gas reliquefaction system, and more particularly, to re-liquefy boil-off gas (BOG) generated from liquefied fuel through a plurality of heat exchangers to be effectively recycled, and in particular to a heat exchanger and It relates to a vaporizer and heat exchanger-integrated boil-off gas reliquefaction system that enables a more compact implementation of a boil-off gas reliquefaction facility by integrally integrating a vaporizer that heats liquefied fuel supplied to a main engine.
일반적으로, LNG는 기존의 화석연료 대비 SOx, NOx 및 이산화탄소 등의 유해물질 및 온실가스를 저감시킬 수 있는 청정연료로 부상하고 있으며 육상뿐만 아니라 해양, 즉 조선 및 선박 분야에서도 활용처가 매우 넓어지고 있는 추세이다.In general, LNG is emerging as a clean fuel that can reduce harmful substances such as SOx, NOx and carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases compared to conventional fossil fuels, and its application is very wide not only on land but also in the ocean, that is, in shipbuilding and ship fields. is the trend
액화천연가스인 LNG는 일반적으로 상압 및 섭씨 -162도 근처에서 액체상태로 존재하며, 단열시스템을 갖는 저장 탱크에 저장된 후에 개별 수요처에 공급된다. 참고로 선박에서의 주요 수요처는 보일러, 발전기 엔진, 저압(예, Wartsila사의 X-DF 엔진) 및 고압(예, MAN solution사의 MEGI 엔진 등) 엔진 등이며, 이들 수요처에 5 내지 300바의 범위로 공급되며, 육상에서는 주요 수요처로 연결되는 천연가스의 주배관 공급망의 압력이 나라마다 다르나 통상 70 내지 120 bar 범위에서 운영되고 있다.LNG, which is a liquefied natural gas, generally exists in a liquid state at atmospheric pressure and near -162 degrees Celsius, and is stored in a storage tank with an insulated system and then supplied to individual consumers. For reference, the main customers in ships are boilers, generator engines, low-pressure (eg, Wartsila's X-DF engine) and high-pressure (eg, MEGI engine of MAN solution, etc.) engines, etc. It is supplied, and the pressure of the main pipeline supply chain of natural gas connected to the main demand on land varies from country to country, but it is usually operated in the range of 70 to 120 bar.
저장탱크 내부에 저장된 LNG는 단열재 사용을 통해 열유입이 억제되어 있으나 대기온도와 탱크 내부의 온도차이로 인해 불가피하게 열유입이 될 수밖에 없으며, 최근 단열기술의 발달로 선박에 사용되는 멤브레인 탱크의 경우 일일 기준 저장된 LNG의 0.15 vol%가 전후의 증발량을 갖도록 설계할 수 있다. 증발된 증발가스는 BOG 압축기에 의해 압축되며, 탱크에 저장된 LNG는 저압펌프 및 고압펌프를 통해 주배관 공급망의 압력으로 승압된 후, 기화되어 송출된다.The LNG stored inside the storage tank is suppressed from heat inflow through the use of insulating materials, but due to the temperature difference between the air temperature and the tank, it inevitably causes heat inflow. It can be designed so that 0.15 vol% of LNG stored on a daily basis has the amount of evaporation before and after. The evaporated BOG is compressed by the BOG compressor, and the LNG stored in the tank is pressurized to the pressure of the main pipeline supply network through a low-pressure pump and a high-pressure pump, and then vaporized and sent out.
증발가스 재액화장치는 저압펌프로 1차 승압된 LNG가 해당 압력에서 온도 증가가 미미하여 과냉 상태를 유지하는 특성을 이용하는 것이다. 즉, 1차 승압된 LNG와 가압된 BOG를 서로 직접 접촉시킴으로써 승압된 압력에서 LNG의 과냉(Sub-cooled)된 현열(Sensible heat)로 BOG를 냉각/액화하는 장치이다. 이 과정에서 일정량의 BOG는 액화되고, 고압펌프를 통해 2차 승압되어 주엔진에 연료로 공급되거나, LNG 저장 탱크로 회수될 수 있다.The boil-off gas reliquefaction apparatus utilizes the characteristic of maintaining a supercooled state because the temperature increase of the LNG, which is first boosted by a low pressure pump, is insignificant at the corresponding pressure. That is, it is a device for cooling/liquefying BOG with sub-cooled sensible heat of LNG at the pressurized pressure by directly contacting the primary boosted LNG and the pressurized BOG with each other. In this process, a certain amount of BOG is liquefied, and the second pressure is boosted through a high-pressure pump to be supplied as fuel to the main engine, or may be recovered to an LNG storage tank.
일반적으로, 열교환기를 통해 배출되는 액화 연료는 베이퍼라이저(vaporizer)라고 하는 기화기를 통해 메인 엔진에서 필요로 하는 형태로 형태 변환되어 공급된다. 이때, 열교환기의 후단에 별도의 베이퍼라이저를 구비하여야 한다는 점에서 증발 가스 재액화 설비 규모가 그만큼 커지게 되는데, 선박 내에서 증발 가스 재액화 설비를 배치하기 위한 공간은 한정되어 있다는 점에서, 현재 전체적인 설비 규모의 컴팩트화가 요구되고 있는 실정이다.In general, liquefied fuel discharged through a heat exchanger is converted into a form required by a main engine and supplied through a vaporizer called a vaporizer. At this time, the scale of the boil-off gas reliquefaction facility increases that much in that a separate vaporizer must be provided at the rear end of the heat exchanger. There is a demand for compactness of the facility scale.
본 발명은 전술한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 액화 연료에서 발생되는 증발가스(BOG)를 다수의 열 교환기를 통해 재액화시켜 효과적으로 재활용되도록 하며, 특히 열교환기와 메인 엔진으로 공급되는 액화 연료를 가온하는 베이퍼라이저를 일체형으로 통합함으로써, 증발 가스 재액화 설비를 보다 컴팩트하게 구현할 수 있도록 하는 베이퍼라이저 및 열교환기 통합형 증발 가스 재액화 시스템을 제공하고자 한다.The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and to re-liquefy boil-off gas (BOG) generated from liquefied fuel through a plurality of heat exchangers so as to be effectively recycled, and in particular, to heat the liquefied fuel supplied to the heat exchanger and the main engine.

도 1은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 베이퍼라이저 및 열교환기 통합형 증발 가스 재액화 시스템(100)의 구성을 도시한 도면이다.1 is a diagram illustrating the configuration of a vaporizer and heat exchanger integrated boil-off
도 1을 살펴보면, 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 베이퍼라이저 및 열교환기 통합형 증발 가스 재액화 시스템(100)은 크게 액화 연료 탱크(110), 증발가스 압축기(120), 열교환기(130), 부스터 펌프(140) 및 통합형 열교환기(150)를 포함하여 구성될 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 1 , the vaporizer and heat exchanger integrated
먼저, 액화 연료 탱크(110)는 선박의 추진 동력원인 메인 엔진 및 보조 엔진에서 필요로 하는 액화 연료를 저장하는 저장 공간을 의미한다. 이때, 액화 연료라 함은 LNG, 액화 수소와 같이 액화 상태의 모든 연료를 포괄하는 의미로 해석될 수 있다.First, the
액화 연료 탱크(110) 내에는 액화 연료가 저장되어 있으며, 이때 액화 연료 탱크(110)의 내측 하부에는 액화 연료를 열교환기(130) 방향으로 가압 공급하기 위한 인 탱크 펌프(In tank pump)(110a)가 마련된다. 따라서, 인 탱크 펌프(110a)를 통해 끌어 올려진 액화 연료는 열교환기(130)와 연결된 연결 라인을 통해 열교환기(130) 방향으로 공급되며, 열교환기(130)를 통해 증발가스(BOG)와 열교환 후 통합형 열교환기(150)를 향해 배출된다. 한편, 인 탱크 펌프(110a)의 가압력은 5bar 내지 20bar가 적용될 수 있다.Liquefied fuel is stored in the

통합형 열교환기(150)는 부스터 펌프(140)와 선박의 메인 엔진 사이에 마련되며, 부스터 펌프(140)를 통해 공급되는 액화 연료와 증발가스 압축기(120)를 통해 공급되는 증발가스를 서로 열교환 시킴으로써 증발가스 내 냉열을 회수하는 역할과, 동시에 부스터 펌프(140)를 통해 공급되는 액화 연료를 가온하여 기화시키는 역할을 역할을 한다.The integrated
이러한 통합형 열교환기(150)는 통합형 열교환기(150)를 일측에서 타측으로 관통하는 공급 라인(151)과, 공급 라인(151)을 통과하여 흐르는 가온 냉매인 글리콜 워터를 공급하기 위한 글리콜 워터 공급부(미도시)를 포함하여 구성된다. 이때 글리콜 워터는 섭씨 50도 전후의 온도에 해당하기 때문에, 부스터 펌프(140)를 통해 공급되는 액화 연료를 기화시키게 되는 것이다.The integrated
한편, 글리콜 워터 공급부는 회수되는 글리콜 워터를 재가열하여 기 설정된 가온 온도(예를 들어, 섭씨 50도 전후)가 유지되도록 하는 글리콜 워터 가열 장치(미도시)를 포함할 수 있다.Meanwhile, the glycol water supply unit may include a glycol water heating device (not shown) that reheats the recovered glycol water to maintain a preset heating temperature (eg, around 50 degrees Celsius).
글리콜 워터 가열 장치는 온도 센서(미도시)를 포함하며, 온도 센서를 통해 공급 라인(151)을 통과하는 글리콜 워터의 온도를 상시 센싱한 후, 기 설정된 온도 이하로 떨어지는 경우 글리콜 워터 가열 장치를 가열시키게 되는 것이다.The glycol water heating device includes a temperature sensor (not shown), and after constantly sensing the temperature of the glycol water passing through the
일 실시예에서, 증발가스가 보조 엔진 방향으로 공급될 경우에는 보조 엔진 전단에 트림 히터(Trim heater)(미도시)가 마련될 수 있으며, 트림 히터를 통해 보조 엔진에서 필요로 하는 연료 온도로 가온될 수 있다. 여기에서, 보조 엔진이라 함은 발전 엔진(Generator Engine 또는 보일러(Boiler)를 구동하기 위한 엔진 등을 의미할 수 있다.In one embodiment, when BOG is supplied in the direction of the auxiliary engine, a trim heater (not shown) may be provided at the front end of the auxiliary engine, and is heated to the fuel temperature required by the auxiliary engine through the trim heater. can be Here, the auxiliary engine may mean an engine for driving a generator engine or a boiler (Boiler).
또한, 일 실시예에서는 통합형 열교환기(150)의 공급 라인(151)과 배치되어 통합형 열교환기(150)를 관통하는 추가 공급 라인(미도시)가 마련될 수 있으며, 이때 추가 공급 라인을 통과하여 앞서 살펴본 트림 히터에 의해 가열된 증발 가스가 공급될 수 있다. 이 경우, 트림 히터에 의해 가열된 증발 가스가 가지는 열이 공급 라인(151)을 통해 공급되는 글리콜 워터를 추가로 가열시킬 수도 있는 것이다.In addition, in one embodiment, an additional supply line (not shown) that is disposed with the
