Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for cooling liquid or gaseous media.
- Low-boiling liquefied gases can only be kept liquid by means of particularly good insulation of the storage tanks and the pipelines. Even the slightest heat or frictional heat can lead to partial evaporation, depending on the boiling state.
- the boiling bubbles collect, except in the headspace of the storage container, e.g. also in vertical pipe bends. These so-called gas cushions in the supply line lead to disruptions at the sampling point when a reproducible dosing of the liquefied gas is required. It is easy to see that due to the density difference between the gas and the liquid, different amounts flow through an opening of the same size at equal time intervals. In order to have reliable pure liquid in front of the dosing, it is necessary to subcool the liquefied gas with respect to its respective boiling state.
- Such supercooling can be accomplished, for example, by cooling the liquid coolant isobarically by means of an electric cooling unit so that no partial evaporation occurs during the circulation in a loop system due to heat radiation and friction losses.
- an electric cooling unit so that no partial evaporation occurs during the circulation in a loop system due to heat radiation and friction losses.
- the necessary aggregates are very expensive to buy and operate due to their high power requirements.
- the device comprises a heat exchanger through which the liquid nitrogen to be cooled flows, which is arranged in an insulated container.
- the heat exchanger is designed as a cooling coil, to which a float-operated lever valve is connected, which maintains a container surrounding the cooling coil bath of liquid nitrogen.
- a gas outlet valve is provided, which ensures that the pressure in the container corresponds to the ambient pressure.
- a disadvantage of this embodiment is that the bandwidth of the temperature setting is very narrow.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device for cooling fluid media, in particular for subcooling liquids, with the simple way a high bandwidth of the temperature setting can be achieved.
- a device for cooling of liquid or gaseous media with an arranged in an insulated container heat exchanger, which is flowed through by the medium to be cooled and which is accommodated in a bath of a cooling medium, with a in the interior of the isolated Container at an expansion organ ausmündenden pressure line for the cooling medium and with a equipped with a pressure control valve for adjusting the pressure in the container outlet line for the cooling medium.
- the temperature of the cooling medium drops due to the Joule-Thomson effect.
- the height of the pressure drop occurring during the expansion is determined by the pressure of the supplied cooling medium and the freely adjustable pressure holding value at the pressure control valve in the output line. Together with the additional parameter of the temperature of the supplied cooling medium before the relaxation can thus be set in theissermediumsbad a predetermined temperature.
- a forced cooling such a gaseous or liquid medium can be cooled by heat exchange with thedemediumsbad, only care must be taken that the temperature of thedemediumsbades inside the container is not so low that the guided through the heat exchanger medium freezes.
- the pressure line passes through a device for controlling the temperature of the cooling medium in front of its mouth on the expansion element.
- a device for controlling the temperature of the cooling medium in front of its mouth on the expansion element.
- the cooling medium already has a particularly low temperature before the relaxation.
- a device for determining the level of the cooling medium bath is expediently provided, which is operatively connected to a arranged in the pressure line for the cooling medium blocking member. Falls below a predetermined level height, the blocking member of the pressure line opens and liquid cooling medium flows after.
- the device for determining the filling height is a float-controlled lever valve.
- float-controlled valves are often unreliable in practice, since the density of the high-boiling liquid in the container, and thus the buoyancy for the float, often insufficient to close the valve. In addition, the density difference between liquid and gas near the critical point is becoming smaller and smaller.
- a device for detecting the temperature of the cooled medium is provided, which is operatively connected to the pressure control valve.
- the pressure at the pressure control valve and thus the temperature of the cooling medium bath is set in this embodiment of the invention continuously in response to a desired temperature of the treated medium.
- a preferred cooling medium is carbon dioxide. Due to its physical properties, carbon dioxide makes it possible to adjust the temperature of the cooling medium bath by adjusting the pressure in a wide range between +10 ° C and -55 ° C.
- the device according to the invention is particularly advantageously suitable for subcooling, ie for cooling to a temperature well below the boiling point of the cryogenic medium used, for example liquid carbon dioxide.
- subcooling in particular cavitation effects can be reduced in piston pumps.
- the yield i. E. the proportion of snow compared to the proportion of generated carbon dioxide gas increase.
- FIG. 1 schematically illustrates an embodiment of the device according to the invention.
- the device 1 comprises a closed container 2 with a lid 3 with thermally insulated walls. Inside the container 3, two cooling coils 4,5 are arranged.
- the cooling coil 4 serves to cool a liquid or gaseous medium, which is led into the container 3 via an insulated feed line 7 and leaves the container again via an equally insulated discharge line 8.
- the cooling coil 5 is used for subcooling of liquid carbon dioxide, which is brought via an isolated and pressure-resistant carbon dioxide feed line 9 from a carbon dioxide supply tank, not shown here, for example, a low pressure or medium pressure tank.
- an expansion valve 11 is connected, which is actuated by a float 12.
- a valve 11 relaxation member which is located for example in the region of the inlet of the supply line 9 in the container 3, are introduced into the container .
- the float control and other measuring devices may be provided for level measurement, which are operatively connected to the expansion valve 11, and in particular when using the Carbon dioxide near its critical point are more appropriate.
- an exhaust pipe 14 is provided for the discharge of gaseous carbon dioxide.
- a pressure-holding valve 15 is mounted, which keeps the pressure in the exhaust pipe 14, upstream of the pressure-holding valve 15, and thus in the container 3, to a predetermined value constant.
- the pressure-maintaining valve 15 is in data communication with a temperature measuring device 16, which measures the temperature in the discharge line 8 immediately after it leaves the container 3.
- the pressure of carbon dioxide in the carbon dioxide feed line. 9 either corresponds to that of the supply tank or it is interposed in the carbon dioxide feed line 8 means for increasing the pressure.
- the expansion valve 11 is constructed so that in the presence of a pressure difference between the carbon dioxide feed line and falling below a predetermined level of the level 17 liquid carbon dioxide flows into the container 3.
- the relaxing liquid carbon dioxide evaporates partially and is discharged via the exhaust pipe 14.
- the unevaporated portion of the incoming carbon dioxide forms the cooling coils surrounding the 4.5 bath 18.
- the pressure-holding valve 15 can be regulated in the interior of the container 3 and thus the pressure drop occurring during the outflow of carbon dioxide. Due to the Joule-Thomson effect, the relaxation of the liquid carbon dioxide leads to a drop in the temperature of the liquid carbon dioxide flowing into the container 3. For this reason, the temperature of the liquid carbon dioxide in the container 3 is lower than that of the liquid carbon dioxide in the carbon dioxide feed line 9. With a suitable choice of the pressure and the temperature in the carbon dioxide feed line 9 and the pressure in the container 3 so it is possible to precisely set the temperature of the bath 18 within a range between + 10 ° C and -55 ° C.
- the temperature of the cooled medium is continuously measured by means of the temperature measuring device 16, so that the control pressure at the pressure-holding valve 15 can be regulated as a function of the measured temperature to a desired value or course.
- the height of the level 17 by means of the float 12 and the controlled with this functionally connected expansion valve 11. If the water level drops, the expansion valve 11 is opened and liquid carbon dioxide flows out of the carbon dioxide feed line 9.
- the medium introduced via the supply line 7 emits heat to the carbon dioxide bath 18 in the container 3 on its way through the cooling coil 4 and leaves the container 3 via the discharge line 8 in a cooled manner.
- the medium to be cooled becomes, with a sufficiently dimensioned design of the cooling coil 4, cooled to approximately the temperature of the bath 18.
- the device 1 according to the invention thus operates completely independent of external energy. Due to the wide range within which the temperature of the bath 18 in the container 3 can be adjusted, the device according to the invention is suitable for cooling a large number of liquid or gaseous media, for example from the pharmaceutical or food technology sector.
- the device 1 is also suitable for supercooling of liquid carbon dioxide, wherein the separation of the two cooling coils 4 and 5 allows the setting of independent temperature and pressure conditions in the supply lines 9 and 7.
- the liquid carbon dioxide used as a cooling medium can be removed from the stream of carbon dioxide to be supercooled.
- the liquid carbon dioxide 9 introduced in the carbon dioxide feed line 9 has a pressure of 20 bar and a temperature of -25 ° C. After passing through the cooling coil 5, which, however, only serves for pre-cooling and on the achievable temperature value of the bath 18 has no influence, and the subsequent exit on the expansion valve 11, the carbon dioxide to a pressure of about 5 bar, the set target pressure at the pressure holding valve 15th corresponds, relaxed. This reduces its temperature to -50 ° C.
- a portion of the carbon dioxide evaporates and is discharged via the exhaust pipe 14 as soon as the pressure in the container exceeds a value of slightly more than 5 bar - ie a pressure at which the cooled to -50 ° C carbon dioxide in the container 3 just barely liquid - exceeds ,
- the non-evaporating in the relaxation part forms and continuously adds the bath 18 of liquid carbon dioxide, the temperature is therefore also -50 ° C.
- Cooling energy is taken from the bath 18 made of liquid carbon dioxide by this partially evaporated and flows off via the exhaust pipe 14 irreversibly into the open air.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Kühlen von flüssigen oder gasförmigen Medien.The invention relates to a device for cooling liquid or gaseous media.
Tiefsiedende verflüssigte Gase können nur durch besonders gute Isolation der Speicherbehälter und der Rohrleitungen flüssig gehalten werden. Schon die geringste Wärmeeinstrahlung oder Reibungswärme kann je nach Siedezustand zu einer Teilverdampfung führen. Die Siedebläschen sammeln sich außer im Kopfraum des Speicherbehälters z.B. auch in senkrechten Rohrkrümmern. Diese sogenannten Gaspolster in der Versorgungsleitung führen zu Störungen an der Entnahmestelle, wenn eine reproduzierbare Dosierung des verflüssigten Gases gefordert wird. Es ist leicht einzusehen, dass durch eine gleich große Öffnung in gleichen Zeitintervallen wegen des Dichteunterschiedes zwischen Gas und Flüssigkeit unterschiedliche Mengen strömen. Um nun zuverlässig reine Flüssigkeit vor dem Dosierorgan anstehen zu haben, muss man das verflüssigte Gas gegenüber seinem jeweiligen Siedezustand unterkühlen.Low-boiling liquefied gases can only be kept liquid by means of particularly good insulation of the storage tanks and the pipelines. Even the slightest heat or frictional heat can lead to partial evaporation, depending on the boiling state. The boiling bubbles collect, except in the headspace of the storage container, e.g. also in vertical pipe bends. These so-called gas cushions in the supply line lead to disruptions at the sampling point when a reproducible dosing of the liquefied gas is required. It is easy to see that due to the density difference between the gas and the liquid, different amounts flow through an opening of the same size at equal time intervals. In order to have reliable pure liquid in front of the dosing, it is necessary to subcool the liquefied gas with respect to its respective boiling state.
Eine solche Unterkühlung lässt sich beispielsweise dadurch bewerkstelligen, dass das flüssige Kühlmittel isobar mittels eines elektrischen Kühlaggregates so weit unterkühlt wird, dass bei der Umwälzung in einem Ringleitungssystem durch Wärmeeinstrahlung und Reibungsverluste keine Teilverdampfung auftritt. Die hierzu notwendigen Aggregate sind jedoch aufgrund ihres hohen Leistungsbedarfs sehr teuer in Anschaffung und Betrieb.Such supercooling can be accomplished, for example, by cooling the liquid coolant isobarically by means of an electric cooling unit so that no partial evaporation occurs during the circulation in a loop system due to heat radiation and friction losses. However, the necessary aggregates are very expensive to buy and operate due to their high power requirements.
In der
Ein Nachteil dieser Ausgestaltung ist, dass die Bandbreite der Temperatureinstellung sehr schmal ist.A disadvantage of this embodiment is that the bandwidth of the temperature setting is very narrow.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Vorrichtung zum Kühlen von fluiden Medien, insbesondere zum Unterkühlen von Flüssigkeiten zu schaffen, mit der auf einfache Weise eine hohe Bandbreite der Temperatureinstellung erreicht werden kann.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device for cooling fluid media, in particular for subcooling liquids, with the simple way a high bandwidth of the temperature setting can be achieved.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Vorrichtung zum Kühlen von flüssigen oder gasförmigen Medien, mit einem in einem isolierten Behälter angeordneten Wärmetauscher, der von dem zu kühlenden Medium durchströmt wird und der in einem Bad aus einem Kühlmedium aufgenommen ist, mit einem in das Innere des isolierten Behälters an einem Entspannungsorgan ausmündenden Druckleitung für das Kühlmedium und mit einer mit einem Druckregelventil zur Einstellung des Drucks im Behälter ausgerüsteten Ausgangsleitung für das Kühlmedium.This object is achieved by a device for cooling of liquid or gaseous media, with an arranged in an insulated container heat exchanger, which is flowed through by the medium to be cooled and which is accommodated in a bath of a cooling medium, with a in the interior of the isolated Container at an expansion organ ausmündenden pressure line for the cooling medium and with a equipped with a pressure control valve for adjusting the pressure in the container outlet line for the cooling medium.
Durch die Entspannung des Kühlmediums beim Eintritt in den Behälter sinkt die Temperatur des Kühlmediums aufgrund des Joule-Thomson-Effektes. Die Höhe des bei der Entspannung auftretenden Druckabfalls wird vom Druck des zugeführten Kühlmediums und vom frei einstellbaren Druckhaltewert am Druckregelventil in der Ausgangsleitung bestimmt. Zusammen mit dem zusätzlichen Parameter der der Temperatur des zugeführten Kühlmediums vor der Entspannung kann somit eine vorgegebene Temperatur im Kühlmediumsbad eingestellt werden. Unabhängig von einer Fremdkühlung kann so ein gasförmiges oder flüssiges Medium durch Wärmetausch mit dem Kühlmediumsbad gekühlt werden, wobei lediglich darauf geachtet werden muss, dass die Temperatur des Kühlmediumsbades im Innern des Behälters nicht so niedrig ist, dass das durch den Wärmetauscher geführte Medium einfriert.Due to the relaxation of the cooling medium entering the container, the temperature of the cooling medium drops due to the Joule-Thomson effect. The height of the pressure drop occurring during the expansion is determined by the pressure of the supplied cooling medium and the freely adjustable pressure holding value at the pressure control valve in the output line. Together with the additional parameter of the temperature of the supplied cooling medium before the relaxation can thus be set in the Kühlmediumsbad a predetermined temperature. Regardless of a forced cooling, such a gaseous or liquid medium can be cooled by heat exchange with the Kühlmediumsbad, only care must be taken that the temperature of the Kühlmediumsbades inside the container is not so low that the guided through the heat exchanger medium freezes.
Um die Temperatur des zugeführten Kühlmediums als weiteren freien Parameter nutzen zu können, ist es zweckmäßig, dass die Druckleitung vor ihrer Mündung am Entspannungsorgan eine Einrichtung zur Temperierung des Kühlmediums durchläuft. In vielen Fällen kommt es jedoch darauf an, dass das Kühlmedium bereits vor der Entspannung eine besonders tiefe Temperatur aufweist. In diesem Fall ist es besonders wirtschaftlich, wenn als Einrichtung zum Temperieren des Kühlmediums ein Wärmetauscher im Kühlmediumsbad vorgesehen ist. Das Kühlmedium wird also im eigenen Kühlmediumsbad vorgekühlt.In order to use the temperature of the supplied cooling medium as a further free parameter, it is expedient that the pressure line passes through a device for controlling the temperature of the cooling medium in front of its mouth on the expansion element. In many cases, however, it is important that the cooling medium already has a particularly low temperature before the relaxation. In this case, it is particularly economical if a heat exchanger is provided in the cooling medium bath as means for controlling the temperature of the cooling medium. The cooling medium is thus pre-cooled in its own cooling medium bath.
Um den Pegelstand im Innern des Behälters konstant zu halten und somit eine gleich bleibende Kühlung zu erzielen, ist zweckmäßigerweise eine Einrichtung zur Ermittlung des Füllstandes des Kühlmediumsbades vorgesehen, die mit einem in der Druckleitung für das Kühlmedium angeordneten Sperrorgan wirkverbunden ist. Bei Unterschreiten einer vorgegebenen Pegelhöhe öffnet sich das Sperrorgan der Druckleitung und flüssiges Kühlmedium strömt nach. Im einfachsten Fall handelt es sich bei der Einrichtung zur Ermittlung der Füllhöhe um ein schwimmergesteuertes Hebelventil. Freilich sind schwimmergesteuerte Ventile in der Praxis oft unzuverlässig, da die Dichte der stark siedenden Flüssigkeit im Behälter, und damit der Auftrieb für den Schwimmer, oftmals nicht ausreicht, um das Ventil zu schließen. Hinzu kommt, dass der Dichteunterschied zwischen Flüssigkeit und Gas nahe des kritischen Punktes immer geringer wird. Dies ist insbesondere bei Verwendung von Kohleindioxid als Kühlmittel von Bedeutung, da dieses häufig in der Nähe des kritischen Punktes eingesetzt wird. Zuverlässiger hat sich in solchen Systemen die Ermittlung von Füllständen mittels Widerstandsmessung oder Messung der Wärmeleitfähigkeit erwiesen. Bei diesen Messmethoden wird durch einen Vergleich dieser Parameter an mehreren, vertikal voneinander beabstandeten Punkten im Behälter auf den Aggregatszustand und damit die Füllhöhe geschlossen.In order to keep the level in the interior of the container constant and thus to achieve a constant cooling, a device for determining the level of the cooling medium bath is expediently provided, which is operatively connected to a arranged in the pressure line for the cooling medium blocking member. Falls below a predetermined level height, the blocking member of the pressure line opens and liquid cooling medium flows after. In the simplest case, the device for determining the filling height is a float-controlled lever valve. Of course, float-controlled valves are often unreliable in practice, since the density of the high-boiling liquid in the container, and thus the buoyancy for the float, often insufficient to close the valve. In addition, the density difference between liquid and gas near the critical point is becoming smaller and smaller. This is particularly important when using carbon dioxide as a coolant, as this is often used in the vicinity of the critical point. In such systems, the determination of fill levels by means of resistance measurement or measurement of the thermal conductivity has proved to be more reliable. With these measuring methods, a comparison of these parameters at several, vertically spaced points in the container on the state of aggregation and thus the filling level is closed.
Zweckmäßigerweise ist eine Einrichtung zur Erfassung der Temperatur des gekühlten Mediums vorgesehen, die mit dem Duckregelventil wirkverbunden ist. Der Druck am Druckregelventil und damit die Temperatur des Kühlmediumsbades wird bei dieser erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung kontinuierlich in Abhängigkeit von einer gewünschten Temperatur des behandelten Mediums eingestellt.Appropriately, a device for detecting the temperature of the cooled medium is provided, which is operatively connected to the pressure control valve. The pressure at the pressure control valve and thus the temperature of the cooling medium bath is set in this embodiment of the invention continuously in response to a desired temperature of the treated medium.
Ein bevorzugtes Kühlmedium ist Kohlendioxid. Kohlendioxid ermöglicht aufgrund seiner physikalischen Eigenschaften eine Einstellung der Temperatur des Kühlmediumsbades durch entsprechende Einstellung des Drucks in einem weiten Bereich zwischen +10 °C und -55 °C.A preferred cooling medium is carbon dioxide. Due to its physical properties, carbon dioxide makes it possible to adjust the temperature of the cooling medium bath by adjusting the pressure in a wide range between +10 ° C and -55 ° C.
Besonders vorteilhaft eignet sich die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Unterkühlung, also zur Abkühlung auf eine Temperatur deutlich unterhalb des Siedepunkts des eingesetzten kryogenen Mediums, beispielsweise von flüssigem Kohlendioxid. Durch Unterkühlung lassen sich insbesondere Kavitationseffekte bei Kolbenpumpen reduzieren. Bei der Erzeugung von Kohlendioxidschnee mittels Entspannung des flüssigen Kohlendioxids auf Umgebungsdruck lässt sich durch Unterkühlung zudem die Ausbeute, d.h. der Schneeanteil gegenüber dem Anteil an erzeugtem Kohlendioxidgas, erhöhen.The device according to the invention is particularly advantageously suitable for subcooling, ie for cooling to a temperature well below the boiling point of the cryogenic medium used, for example liquid carbon dioxide. By subcooling in particular cavitation effects can be reduced in piston pumps. In the generation of carbon dioxide snow by means of expansion of the liquid carbon dioxide to ambient pressure can be by subcooling also the yield, i. E. the proportion of snow compared to the proportion of generated carbon dioxide gas increase.
Die Zeichnung (Fig .1) veranschaulicht schematisch ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung.The drawing (Fig. 1) schematically illustrates an embodiment of the device according to the invention.
Die Vorrichtung 1 umfasst einen mit einem Deckel 2 verschlossenen Behälter 3 mit thermisch isolierten Wänden. Im Innern des Behälters 3 sind zwei Kühlschlangen 4,5 angeordnet. Die Kühlschlange 4 dient zur Kühlung eines flüssigen oder gasförmigen Mediums, das über eine isolierte Zuleitung 7 in den Behälter 3 hineingeführt wird und über eine gleichfalls isolierte Ableitung 8 den Behälter wieder verlässt. Die Kühlschlange 5 dient zur Unterkühlung von flüssigem Kohlendioxid, das über eine isolierte und druckfeste Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9 aus einem hier nicht gezeigten Kohlendioxid-Versorgungstank, beispielsweise einem Niederdruck- oder Mitteldrucktank herangeführt wird. Am Ende der Kühlschlange 5 ist ein Entspannungsventil 11 angeschlossen, welches durch einen Schwimmer 12 betätigt wird. In einer vereinfachten Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung 1 kann jedoch auch auf die Kühlschlange verzichtet werden und das flüssige Kohlendioxid unmittelbar an einem mit einem Ventil 11 ausgerüsteten Entspannungsorgan, das sich beispielsweise im Bereich des Eintritts der Zuleitung 9 in den Behälter 3 befindet, in den Behälter eingeleitet werden. Anstelle der Schwimmersteuerung können auch andere Messeinrichtungen zur Füllstandmessung vorgesehen sein, die mit dem Entspannungsventil 11 wirkverbunden sind, und die insbesondere beim Einsatz des Kohlendioxids in der Nähe seines kritischen Punktes geeigneter sind. Im Deckel 2 des Behälters 3 ist eine Abgasleitung 14 zur Ableitung von gasförmigem Kohlendioxid vorgesehen. In der Abgasleitung 14 ist ein Druckhalteventil 15 montiert, das den Druck in der Abgasleitung 14, stromaufwärts zum Druckhalteventil 15, und damit im Behälter 3, auf einen vorbestimmten Wert konstant hält. Das Druckhalteventil 15 steht mit einem Temperaturmessgerät 16 in Datenverbindung, das die Temperatur in der Ableitung 8, unmittelbar nach dem Austritt aus dem Behälter 3, misst.The
Beim Betrieb der Vorrichtung 1 befindet sich ein Bad 18 aus flüssigem Kohlendioxid bis zur Höhe eines bestimmten Pegels 17 im Innern des Behälters 3. Zugleich befindet sich flüssiges Kohlendioxid unter Druck in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9. Der Druck des Kohlendioxids in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9 entspricht entweder dem des Versorgungstanks oder es ist in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 8 eine Einrichtung zur Druckerhöhung zwischengeschaltet. Das Entspannungsventil 11 ist so aufgebaut, dass bei Vorliegen einer Druckdifferenz zwischen der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung und Unterschreiten einer vorgegebenen Höhe des Pegels 17 flüssiges Kohlendioxid in den Behälter 3 nachströmt. Das sich entspannende flüssige Kohlendioxid verdampft dabei zum Teil und wird über die Abgasleitung 14 abgeführt. Der nicht verdampfte Teil des einströmenden Kohlendioxids bildet das die Kühlschlangen 4,5 umgebende Bad 18. Über das Druckhalteventil 15 kann dabei der Druck im Innern des Behälters 3 und damit der beim Ausströmen des Kohlendioxids stattfindende Druckabfall geregelt werden. Aufgrund des Joule -Thomson - Effekts führt die Entspannung des flüssigen Kohlendioxids zu einem Temperaturabfall des in den Behälter 3 einströmenden flüssigen Kohlendioxids. Aus diesem Grund ist die Temperatur des flüssigen Kohlendioxids im Behälter 3 geringer als die des flüssigen Kohlendioxids in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9. Bei einer geeigneten Wahl des Drucks und der Temperatur in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9 und des Drucks im Behälter 3 ist es so möglich, die Temperatur des Bades 18 innerhalb eines Bereiches zwischen +10°C und -55°C exakt festzulegen. Die Temperatur des gekühlten Mediums wird mittels des Temperaturmessgerätes 16 laufend gemessen, sodass der Stelldruck am Druckhalteventil 15 in Abhängigkeit von der gemessenen Temperatur auf einen gewünschten Wert oder Verlauf geregelt werden kann. Darüber hinaus wird die Höhe des Pegels 17 mittels des Schwimmers 12 und dem mit diesem wirkverbundenen Entspannungsventil 11 kontrolliert. Sinkt der Pegelstand ab, wird das Entspannungsventil 11 geöffnet und flüssiges Kohlendioxid strömt aus der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9 nach. Das über die Zuleitung 7 herangeführte Medium gibt bei seinem Weg durch die Kühlschlange 4 Wärme an das Kohlendioxid-Bad 18 im Behälter 3 ab und verlässt gekühlt den Behälter 3 über die Ableitung 8. Das zu kühlende Medium wird dabei, bei genügend dimensionierter Auslegung der Kühlschlange 4, bis annähernd auf die Temperatur des Bades 18 abgekühlt. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 1 arbeitet demnach völlig unabhängig von Fremdenergie. Aufgrund des weiten Bereiches, innerhalb dessen die Temperatur des Bades 18 im Behälter 3 eingestellt werden kann, eignet sich die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Kühlung einer Vielzahl von flüssigen oder gasförmigen Medien, beispielsweise aus dem pharmazeutischen oder lebensmitteltechnischen Bereich. Die Vorrichtung 1 ist auch zur Unterkühlung von flüssigem Kohlendioxid geeignet, wobei die Trennung der beiden Kühlschlangen 4 und 5 die Einstellung unabhängiger Temperatur- und Druckverhältnisse in den Zuleitungen 9 und 7 ermöglicht. In einer Variante der Vorrichtung 1 kann jedoch auch das als Kühlmedium eingesetzte flüssige Kohlendioxid dem Strom des zu unterkühlenden Kohlendioxids entnommen werden.During operation of the
Das in der Kohlendioxid-Zuleitung 9 herangeführte flüssige Kohlendioxid 9 besitze einen Druck von 20 bar und eine Temperatur von -25°C. Nach Durchlaufen der Kühlschlange 5, die allerdings lediglich der Vorkühlung dient und auf den erreichbaren Temperaturwert des Bades 18 keinen Einfluss hat, und dem anschließenden Austritt am Entspannungsventil 11 werde das Kohlendioxid auf einen Druck von etwas über 5 bar, der dem eingestellten Solldruck am Druckhalteventil 15 entspricht, entspannt. Dadurch reduziert sich seine Temperatur auf -50°C. Ein Teil des Kohlendioxids verdampft und wird über die Abgasleitung 14 abgeführt, sobald der Druck im Behälter einen Wert von etwas über 5 bar - also ein Druckwert, bei dem das auf -50°C gekühlte Kohlendioxid im Behälter 3 gerade eben noch flüssig ist - übersteigt. Der bei der Entspannung nicht verdampfende Teil bildet und ergänzt laufend das Bad 18 aus flüssigem Kohlendioxid, dessen Temperatur demzufolge ebenfalls -50°C beträgt. Bei der Kühlung des durch die Kühlschlange 4 hindurch geführten Mediums wird Kälteenergie dem Bad 18 aus flüssigem Kohlendioxid entnommen, indem dieses teilweise verdampft und über die Abgasleitung 14 irreversibel ins Freie abströmt.The
