Definitions
- the present invention relates to flexible tank means adapted to rest on the hull of a ⁇ ship for transporting liquid. This arrangement is particularly suitable for transporting cold liquefied gases at a pressure close to atmospheric pressure by sea or river.
- the walls of the tanks which may undergo considerable variations of temperature and whose dimensions and geometrical shape remain more or less constant, since they are rigidly connected to the hull of the ship which supports them, must be designed to support dimensional variations which are often considerable, without abnormal stresses.
- the structures made in this way exhibit thermal expansions yor contractions which are not exactly compensated at all points. This is the case particularly when the walls are made up of a film fixed to the insulating layer, but also when they are metal plates.
- Tanks have also been proposed which are made up of a membrane forming a structure independent of the remainder of the ship on which it rests directly or indirectly, without however being rigidly fixed to it.
- FIGURE 1 shows a cross-section through a prior art ICC tank made up of a membrane forming an independent structure.
- FIGURE 2 shows a perspective view of a ltank which is used as first tank
- FIGURES 3, 4, 5 respectively show cross sections through various combinations of ship hulls in accordance with the invention.
- the ships hull schematically shown at 10, has an inner coating of a thermally insulating layer 11, the liquid to be transported being presumedas frequently occursto be at a low temperature.
- the liquid is contained in the tank 12 made of a membrane 13 which is kept in place, by any appropriate fixing means, schematically illustrated at 14, to the lips of the orifice 15 used for filling and emptying the tank.
- the tank is formed by a sort of bag held at the neck and taking up, when full, all the available space enclosed by the insulating layer.
- the membrane 13 is then applied to the insulating layer 11 which transmits the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic stresses to the hull.
- the membrane 13 must have the usual qualities of irnpermeability and chemical inertness relating to the product to be transported.
- the heterogeneity of the material makes difficult the construction of such tanks by welding and the elasticity and the flexibility of coated glass fiber cloth are insufficient to transmit -completely hydrodynamic and hydrostatic stresses and to sustain the thermal stresses.
- This secondary barrier is made up of metallic sheets placed inside the thermally insulating layer.
- Our tank is made up of a homogeneous, flexible and elastic material and has two Walls so that there exists at every point at least two fluid-tight walls between the liquified gas and the rigid structure of the ship.
- the first tank which contains the liquid is duplicated by the second tank made of the same material or of an analogous homogeneous material.
- the second tank is in contact with the first tank or it is separated from the first tank.
- the second tank can bebound to the first tank by different means or it can be independent of .the first tank.
- Tanks according to the present invention may be made of sheets of a suitable elastomer, such as that known under the trademark Estane,5 such sheets being relatively thin, e.g. 1 to 4 mm. joined together by high frequency lwelding, by hot-air welding or by any other appropriate means.
- the invention is not limited to tanks whose walls are made of a specific elastomer. Any homogeneous material having the required qualities of impermeability and chemical inertness which maintans, at the temperature at which the liquid is transported, sufficient exibility and elasticity, is suitable.
- the tanks according to the invention can be subjected to thermal fatigue due to the considerable variations in temperature they undergo, with no risk of them tearing, as a result of homogeneity and the elasticity of their wall at the working temperature. They transmit the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces to the hull better than previously known tanks. The security is increased as a result of the two walls between the liquid and the structure of the ship.
- tanks according to the invention facilitates the successive or simultaneous transport of chemically or physically incompatible cargoes-the products to be transported may easily be placed in separate or different tanks.
- the first tank and the second tank are independent and are directly in contact.
- the top o-f the first tank is applied on the top of the hold by a plurality of straps and the superior part of the second tank (Which is the secondary barrier) is fastened to the walls of the hold.
- FIGURE 2 shows a particular embodiment of a first tank. '1 ⁇ o prevent abnormal strain on the neck of the tank, inflatable ribs 21 are arranged on the inner wall thereof. Their object is to maintain the shape of the tank 'when the Ilatter is empty or only partially filled. To elim- Iinate ⁇ any risk of explosion in the case of leakages, they are inflated with an inert gas such as nitrogen.
- the hull 30 and also' the lower surface of the deck are covered by a thermally insulating layer 31.
- the walls of the tank 32 are made up of a membrane 33, which, as in the preceding example, forms a sort of bag held by its neck with an appropriate fixture schematically illustrated at 34, to the lips of the filling and emptying orifice 35.
- the pressure of the gas of the layer 37 applies the walls 36 of the secondary tank against the thermally insulating layer 31 and keeps the main tank 32 separated from the secondary tank.
- the gaseous layer 37 isthermally insulating, which makes it possible to reduce considerably the thickness of the layer 31.
- the walls 36 of the secondary tank form a safety secondary barrier, which, should there be a break in the seal of the main tank 32, insulates the rigid struct-ure 30 from the cold liquid. As a result of its flexibility and its elasticity, the wall 36 could sustain without damage the stresses it would undergo if the cold liquid trans-ported in the bank 32 came into contact with it by accident.
- This arrangement also makes it possible to protect the Walls 33 and 36 from any stress resulting from a change of shape of the hull and to obviate any friction between them and the layer 31.
- the layer 37 is made up of a'liquid having appropriate chemical and physical characteristics.
- the layer 37 may also be made of a fiexible cellular material.
- the gap between the wall 36 and the wall 33 is maintained at several points by means of membranes connecting the wall 33 and the Wall 36 around their Whole perimeter.
- membranes connecting the wall 33 and the Wall 36 around their Whole perimeter.
- FIGURE 4 A particular embodiment of this modification is shown in FIGURE 4.
- the Walls 43 and 46 are analogous to the walls 33 and 36 in the embodiment shown in FIGURE 3.
- a membrane 48 is fixed to each of them in the neighborhood of their lower edges and, running around the entire perimeter, dedines two sealed chambers 47a and 'll-7b. :Each of these chambers is supplied with a different pressure.
- the pressure of the chamber 47 b may be at least equal to the pressure exerted on the bottom of ⁇ the tank containing the liquid and the pressure of the -chamber 47a may be the pressure necessary for keeping the tank formed by the wall 43 in place.
- the carrying function of the tank (carried out by the chamber 47h) is dissociated from the centering function (carried out by the Achamber 47a).
- the main and secondary tanks are arranged as in the embodiments illustrated in FIGURES 3 and 4.
- the references 53 and 56 designated the walls lof these tanks. They are analogous to the walls 33 and 36, 43 and 46 in the preceding examples.
- the gap between these walls is filled at its upper part 57s with a flexible cellular matrial, and may, if required, be hermetically sealed, and at its lower part 57i by an inert gas which is kept under pressure. Should the seal of the cellular material which fills the gap 57s be insufficient, iit is possible, for example, to separate the two parts 57s and 57i from one lanother by a membrane 59 fixed around the entire perimeter onto the Wall 53 and the wall 56.
- a device for the transport of liquids in bulk comprising an outer wall, a thermally insulating layer disposed adjacent the inner surface of said outer wall and a double- Walled container disposed within said thermally insulating layer, said double-walled container consisting of spaced main and second tanks, each of said tanks bei-ng made of a homogeneous and intrinsically flexible and elastic material.
- At least one of said tanks consists of a non-reinforced membrane made of a polyester urethane.
- each sealed chamber is filled with a gas kept under pressure at a pressure which is different for each chamber.
