Detailed Description of the Invention (Hereinafter, Field of Application, Prior Art, etc. Object of the Invention) The present invention is directed to the use of gas generated by natural evaporation in a storage tank for storing low-temperature liquids, such as liquefied natural gas (hereinafter referred to as LNG). (hereinafter referred to as BOG)
This relates to a method for temporarily suppressing Conventionally, when it became necessary to temporarily limit the amount of BOG generated in a storage tank due to a decrease in demand, for example, the BOG was sucked in and pressurized by a compressor, etc., and then liquefied using a separately installed cooling liquefaction device. For this reason, a compressor and a cooling liquefaction device are required, which increases equipment costs, and it also costs money to operate and maintain the liquefaction device, leading to an increase in costs. The present invention suppresses the generation of BOG in the storage tank by utilizing the liquefied gas in the storage tank, and according to the present invention, the various drawbacks of the prior art described above can be wiped out. The details of the figure are as follows.

Under normal conditions, the liquid surface of the liquefied gas 5 is in an equilibrium state at a superheat temperature corresponding to the pressure of the BOG layer and the amount of BOG generated. At this time, if it is necessary to temporarily suppress the amount of BOG generated, when the pressure control valve 3 is closed, the pressure in the BOG layer will rise rapidly, and the saturation temperature of the liquefied gas 5 will rise sharply as the pressure increases. do. However, since the heat capacity of the liquefied gas 5 is large,
The temperature of the liquefied gas gradually increases. Therefore, the equilibrium of the superheated state in which BOG occurs before the pressure suddenly rises is disrupted, and the degree of superheating decreases, so that the generation of BOG is suppressed. In such a case, the liquefied gas on the liquid surface tends to be locally overheated, but if the liquefied gas is simultaneously jetted from the jet mixing nozzle 6 into the liquefied gas in the storage tank 1, the liquefied gas on the liquid surface is heated locally. , the unsuperheated liquefied gas inside the liquid mixes, and the surface of the liquefied gas 5 becomes supercooled,
The equilibrium is temporarily disrupted and the BOG is liquefied. As mentioned above, the heat capacity of the liquefied gas 5 is large, so
The liquefied gas 5 is gradually heated, and the generation of BOG can be temporarily suppressed until the liquefied gas 5 is heated to a temperature equal to or higher than the saturation temperature of the BOG layer pressure. In actual operation,
In a 95000Kl storage tank, when the liquid volume is more than half, the pressure rise is 400mmAq, and the amount of spray from nozzle 6 is
In the case of 35Nm 3 /h, the amount of 30000Nm 3 (3000Nm 3 /h x 10hrs) generated when the present invention is not applied is
BOG could be suppressed for 10 hours.

In addition, in order to lower the surface temperature of the liquefied gas 5, the liquefied gas may be sprayed from the sprayer 9 via the temperature control valve 11.

(Hereinafter, the effects of the invention) As described above, the present invention eliminates the need for compressors, cooling liquefaction equipment, etc. as in the past when a situation arises in which the generation of BOG needs to be temporarily suppressed. At the same time, the control can be performed only by opening and closing the valve.
It has the great advantage of being simple and quick.
