Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for gas filling pressure vessels, in particular pressure vessels in airbag systems.
- Airbags in vehicles are increasingly using new gas generators that inflate the airbag in a few milliseconds in the event of an accident.
- Three types of gas generators are currently used: • Chemical generators, in which the gas is generated by the reaction of a chemical solid with the ambient air; • So-called hybrid generators, which consist of a combination of solid fuel and compressed gas pack and • Pure gas generators with a high-pressure gas storage system at pressures up to 700 bar at 15 ° C.
- the gas generators which are filled with various gases, pose enormous technical problems in the manufacture, both in their manufacture and in the filling with pressures of up to 1000 bar. These pressures are required in particular in the case of rapid filling due to the compression heat fill in the precisely specified gas masses. These are of crucial importance for the later inflation characteristics of the airbag.
- gases come e.g. for use argon, oxygen, nitrogen, nitrous oxide (laughing gas), both as high-purity gases and as gas mixtures from these components.
- the invention has for its object to provide an alternative method for the high pressure gas filling of pressure vessels, in particular pressure vessels in airbag gas generators.
- the pressure vessel In the process for the high pressure filling of a pressure vessel with a gas or gas mixture, the pressure vessel is cooled and with at least one gas, for example 2 or more gases, at a temperature above the boiling point of the gas or Gases filled, sealed when cooled.
- the filling pressure of the pressure vessel is usually established by heating the filled and closed pressure vessel. Usually, the pressure vessel is heated to the ambient temperature or the operating temperature.
- the gases are preferably introduced one after the other into the cooled pressure vessel. Gas mixtures can be produced in this way.
- the cooled pressure vessel is connected to a compressed gas source.
- the compressed gas source has a higher temperature than the cooled pressure vessel.
- the compressed gas source is usually uncooled.
- the pressurized gas source e.g.
- the compressed gas source usually contains a compressed gas or gas mixture, preferably compressed to high pressure.
- the gas or gas mixture in the compressed gas source has a pressure greater than or equal to 100 bar absolute, greater than or equal to 200 bar absolute, greater than or equal to 300 bar absolute or greater than or equal to 400 bar absolute.
- the method is preferably used to fill a pressure vessel in an airbag system with a gas or gas mixture.
- the pressure vessel corresponds, for example, to a pressure vessel in conventional gas generators for airbag systems.
- the pressure vessel is preferably part of a gas generator of an airbag system.
- the pressure vessel is, for example, an independent part such as a pressure cartridge, a small pressure gas container or a smaller pressure gas container.
- the pressure vessel is preferably a cryogenic pressure gas vessel, which can withstand the abrupt, local temperature changes triggered by the cryogenic filling Resists ambient temperature and the filling temperature, for example up to -200 ° C, and securely encloses the filled gas after the temperature increase at the resulting storage pressures.
- Suitable materials for the pressure vessels are, for example, the standardized, metastable austenitic CrNi steels, in particular types 1.4301, 1.4307, 1.4306, 1.4541.
- the pressure vessel e.g. a chamber to be filled in a gas generator of an airbag system
- a compressed gas source for the filling gas This is usually done via a gas line.
- the pressurized gas source is, for example, a pressurized gas container, in particular a pressurized gas bottle, or a high pressure gas supply.
- the walls of the chamber to be filled, the pressure vessel are usually cooled to the filling temperature.
- the filling temperature is generally below 0 ° C, preferably below minus 50 ° C and particularly preferably below minus 100 ° C, in particular at a temperature below minus 150 ° C.
- Pressure vessel is preferably carried out at a constant temperature.
- the cooling takes place e.g. by means of a cold bath or immersion bath with a cooling liquid (e.g. cryogenic liquefied gases), a cooling block (e.g. cooled metal block), a cold gas (e.g. use of a gas tunnel), cold solid particles (e.g. cooled metal balls, dry ice particles), a cold solid (e.g. dry ice) or a thermostattable cooling device.
- a cooling liquid e.g. cryogenic liquefied gases
- a cooling block e.g. cooled metal block
- a cold gas e.g. use of a gas tunnel
- cold solid particles e.g. cooled metal balls, dry ice particles
- a cold solid e.g. dry ice
- a thermostattable cooling device e.g., a thermostattable cooling device.
- cooling takes place in an immersion bath with a refrigerant such as refrigerated liquefied nitrogen (L
- cryogenic liquefied gas e.g. LN2
- the temperature is only dependent on the pressure.
- B. exactly defined at constant ambient pressure.
- the filling pressure to achieve the required filling quantity is drastically reduced compared to a conventional filling process, e.g. B. to 20 - 25%, ie by a factor of 4 to 5.
- the gas or gas mixture to be stored advantageously enters the pressure vessel in the cryogenic, gaseous state (e.g. by cooling in the pressure vessel or by cooling in front of the pressure vessel).
- the pressure vessel is advantageously evacuated before filling.
- a connection is established between the cooled pressure vessel and the generally uncooled compressed gas source and a certain pressure is set.
- the compressed gas source e.g. a compressed gas source with the gas or
- Gas mixture usually has a temperature in the range of 0 ° C and 100 ° C.
- the compressed gas source has e.g. Ambient temperature, especially room temperature (15 to 30 ° C).
- the temperature of the pressure vessel and pressure gas source preferably differs by at least 50 ° C., particularly preferably by at least 100 ° C., in particular by at least 150 ° C.
- the temperature of the gas or gas mixture in the pressure vessel and pressure gas source differs during filling preferably by at least 50 ° C., particularly preferably by at least 100 ° C., in particular by at least 150 ° C.
- the set or existing pressure that is the pressure in the cooled pressure vessel (primary filling pressure) is generally in the range from over 1 bar to 400 bar absolute, preferably in the range from 10 bar to 300 bar absolute, particularly preferably in the range from 50 bar up to 150 bar absolute, especially in the range from 70 bar to 100 bar absolute.
- the filling temperature (cooling temperature) of the pressure vessel is preferably selected so that the filling temperature is above the boiling point of the filled gas or the boiling point of the highest boiling gas component of the filled gas mixture, so that no condensation of the gas takes place in the pressure vessel. This allows a manometric control of the filling and a manometric determination of the filling quantity.
- the cooled pressure vessel After the cooled pressure vessel has been filled, it is closed and the pressure vessel is heated with the filled gas. As a rule, the temperature is increased to the later use temperature (ambient temperature or room temperature). The heating takes place, for example, by removing the cooling source (for example by removing the filled pressure vessel from a cooling bath). The warming up to ambient temperature takes place, for example, through heat exchange with the surroundings. The warming is alternatively effected by active heating.
- the final filling pressure or secondary filling pressure (equilibrium pressure) adjusts to the desired temperature, usually the ambient temperature, after heating. The final filling pressure is determined by the amount of gas filled.
- a permanent gas with a boiling temperature of at most minus 100 ° C or a gas mixture with gas components with a boiling temperature of at most minus 100 ° C e.g. the gases or the gas components helium (He), hydrogen (H 2 ), nitrogen (N 2 ), Oxygen (0 2 ) or argon (Ar).
- He helium
- H 2 hydrogen
- N 2 nitrogen
- Pressure vessels or gas generators with a pure helium filling are particularly interesting.
- Helium has a positive Joule Thomson coefficient. This means that this gas does not cool down during rapid relaxation.
- Table 1 shows examples of suitable filling temperatures for various filling gases.
- very high storage pressures in particular also those above 300 bar, in particular above 400 bar, can be achieved without major technical and energy expenditure.
- the filling temperatures correspond to the boiling temperatures of the refrigerants at ambient pressure. Higher filling temperatures when using the refrigerants can be set by increasing the pressure up to a maximum of the critical pressure.
- the immersion bath is closed in a pressure-tight manner.
- the invention thus also relates to a method in which pressurized refrigerants are used.
- the temperature of the cooling bath or a correspondingly used cooling source is advantageously changed, controlled and / or regulated with a refrigerant by changing the pressure acting on the refrigerant.
- the advantages of the process • Filling can be done with significantly lower working pressures. • No high pressure compressors required, standard components can be used.
- Another object of the invention is the use of a device consisting of at least one pressure gas source, at least one pressure vessel with cooling device, a connecting line between the pressure gas source and pressure vessel and at least one valve, for filling pressure vessels of airbag systems with at least one gas or gas mixture without mechanical Compression.
- 1 shows a highly simplified diagram of a filling device for pressure vessels.
- 2 shows schematically and as an example the different stages of a filling process for pressure vessels.
- the filling device in Fig. 1 has a pressure vessel 1 to be filled, a compressed gas source 2, e.g. a compressed gas bottle (filling pressure e.g. 300 bar) with helium or hydrogen with shut-off valve and pressure reducer, a gas connection line 3 and a cooling bath 4 with a cryogenic liquefied gas such as liquid nitrogen as a refrigerant.
- the pressure vessel 1 is e.g. Part of a gas generator in an airbag system or a gas cartridge.
- the gas to be filled is filled from the pressure gas source 2 into the pressure vessel 1 by setting a desired pressure (for example 90 bar absolute; set on the pressure reducer of the pressure gas bottle).
- the gas e.g. B. helium or hydrogen
- the gas quickly assume the temperature of the surface and thus the boiling point of the refrigerant.
- the gas is cooled in the pressure vessel 1 to the temperature of the cold bath.
- the boiling temperature of the gas is below the temperature of the cooling bath, so that no condensation of the gas occurs in the pressure vessel 1.
- a density corresponding to the temperature is set, which is considerably higher than at room temperature.
- the required filling mass of the gas can be set precisely and reproducibly at the constant temperature of the cooling bath via the filling pressure.
- the pressure vessel 1 is then closed under pressure using suitable means.
- the pressure vessel 1 is sealed, for example, on the filling pipe (gas supply line 3), which is immediately after the temperature compensation at the filling temperature is squeezed and / or welded.
- the container is then removed from the cold bath and heated.
- a pressure increase is generated by increasing the temperature (heating) (approx. 3.7 times for helium, approx. 5 times for H 2 for a temperature increase from 77 to 288 K).
- gas from a pressurized gas container in particular from conventional pressurized gas bottles, filling pressures of 700 bar or 1000 bar (at room temperature) can be generated.
- no means for generating pressure for example compressor or gas pump is used between pressure vessel 1 and pressure gas source 2.
- the pressure vessel is connected to the compressed gas source 2 (not shown) during filling.
- the connection is made via a connection of the filling line to the shut-off valve 5.
- the method preferably works without the use of a compressor or a pump.
