C O.MEYERS BY y ATTORNEYS Patented July 24, 1951 PULSATION CHAMBER Charles 0. Meyers, Eartlesville, Okla, assignor to Phillips Petroleum Company, a corporation of Delaware Application April 7, 1947, Serial No. 739,875
Claims.
It My invention relates to new and useful improvements in pulsation dampening devices for flow lines. In a more specific aspect it relates to a vapor cushion pulsation dampening device. Pulsation dampening devices have long been used, in all types of pipe line operations. Many arrangements have been disclosed by prior art and the most commonly used arrangement of such a device comprises a surge tank communicating with the flow line and air within the tank acting as a cushion for shocks caused by surges of liquid ,in the line. 7
Operating efficiency of such a device is dependent upon the amountoi air present in the surge tank which can be compressed as a cushion for the fluid from the flow line. Among the disadvantages of such a device is the fact that the air isabsorbed by the fluid and necessitates periodically pumping additional air into the chamber against high pressure or in the alternative necessitates cutting off the surge tank from the pipe line by means of a valve while additional air is injected into the surge tank. Use of high pressure in the flowlines has made this disadvantage more noticable because of the necessity for greater amounts of air to form a sufiiciently large cushion to absorb the shock caused by surges of the fluid being pumped. An additional disadvantage to such a device in high pressure operation is the expense and difiiculty of pumping air into the air chamber against the great pressure carried in the line.
An object of my invention is to provide a vapor cushion pulsation dampening method and a device for carrying out such method on flow lines, whichdevice is simple in construction and efficient and economical in operation.
Another object of my invention is to provide a vapor cushion pulsation dampening device which uses a fluid vapor as the cushioning means andto'further provide a method for forming such a cushion.
Other-objects and advantages of my invention .Willbe apparent from the accompanying description and discussion.
-Inthe draWing-- :Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a vapor cushion pulsation dampening device showing-a=preferred embodiment of my invention.
:Figure 2 is a transverse sectional View taken along the Z2 line of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional View taken along the 3-3 line of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of a vapor cushion pulsation dampening device embodying a modificationof my invention.
Figure 1 shows a preferred embodiment of my invention wherein trap ill comprises vapor dome ii forming interior chamber [2 and outer shell 53 forming outer chamber It with supporting members l5 attached to the outer top of vapor dome ii and the interior top of-outer shell 13. Vapor dome H has ports HS in its lower extremities for the purpose of communicating between interior chamber 12 and outer chamber l4.
Sealingfiuid I1 is relatively more volatile than.
and is relatively heavier than fluid It, which is the fluid being pumped in a flow line not shown. Conduit l9 communicates with chamber l4 and such a flow line and conveys fluid IE to the upper portion of outer chamber M. Coil 20 carries a heating medium into interior chamber l2 from a source which, for the sake of simplicity, is not shown and supplies head to vaporize sealing fluid H. Inlet 2| having valve 22 installed therein, is provided for the purpose of charging sealing fluid I '1 into vapor dome H.
Figure 4 shows a modification embodying my invention wherein trap Ill comprises vapor dome H forming interior chamber 12', extending through the top of outer shell l3 and fastened therein in such a manner that outer chamber I4 will be pressure tight in the connection. Vapor dome l I has ports It in itsv lower extremities for the purpose of allowing a fluid to pass to and fro between outer chamber [4' and interior chamber 52'. Inlet 2i having valve 22 installed therein, is provided to charge a sealing fluid into interior chamber I 2 and heating coil 2|] provides the heat necessary to vaporize the sealing fluid. A
r further modification shown in this figure is that sealing fluid 24 is relatively more volatile than and is relatively lighter than fluid 25 which is pumped in the flow line.
Operation My invention provides an apparatus and a method for overcoming disadvantages of the old air cushion pulsation dampening device and a method for carrying out the improvements. In the preferred embodiment oi my invention I install a heating coil, or some equally good heating means, in the upper portion of the vapor dome. The inlet and outlet for such coil may or may not go through the outer shell and the outer chamber. The main requirement is that the heating apparatus be positioned in the upper portion of the vapor dome.
Heat has been used to vaporize the liquid being pumped in the flow line, in order to form a vapor cushion. Inmany cases, however, the pressure maintained on a flow line is so great that it would take exceedingly high temperatures to vaporize the fluid being pumped. For that reasor a sealing fluid which is relatively more volatile than the pumped fluid is charged to the interior chamber. After the sealing fluid has been charged, fluid under the full flow line pressure is turned into the outer chamber. This fluid forces the sealing fluid upward in the interior chamber so that it contacts the heating coil or heating means. Steam or some equivalent heate ing medium is then passed through the coil. In this manner the sealing fluid is vaporized until a vapor pocket is formed which surrounds the heating unit. From this point in the operation the apparatus of my invention becomes self com-- pensating. As the vapors are condensed to such a degree that fluid surges up over the heating unit, additional vapors will be formed and the fluid will once more be forced downward until the fluid in its surges fails to reach the heating unit.- This heating coil is an important feature of my invention, since it insures having a vapor space available to absorb pulsations but does not supply excessive quantities of heat to the system during normal operation when the top level of unvaporized sealing fluid is below the heating coil.
Some of the sealing fluids which maybe used in my invention when hydrocarbons are being pumped include water and aqueous solutions of ammonia, carbon dioxide or methylamine. Carbon tetrachloride isa satisfactory sealing fluid when water is th fluid being pumped. The amount of sealing fluid charged to the apparatus should be in excess of that expected to be vaporized. The excess fluid seals the vapors from the fluid being pumped in the flow line.
In a further modification of my invention, the
temperature of the heating element may be con- I troll-ed by hand or may automatically be controlled by means of an attachment on a liquid level indicator or control. Any commonly used liquid level indicator or control may be used for the purpose of checking the level of the sealing liquid within the interior chamber.
The modified construction of my invention shown in Figure 4 of the drawing will be advantageous where it is necessary to maintain a larger vapor cushion than would be practicable in a device such as the one shown in Figure 1 of the drawing.
Many modifications may be made in the heating means for the sealing fluid in the construction of either figure. The primary requirement is that the heating unit be positioned so that it will be above the sealing fluid level when the device is in full operation.
The apparatus shown in Figure 1 and the apparatus of Figure 4 may be used either with a sealing fluid which is lighter than the pumped fluid or with a sealing fluid which is heavier than the fluid being pumped. Once the selection of a sealing fluid which will be substantially insoluble in the pumped fluid has been made and comparisons of specific gravities made, it is relatively easy to start operation of the device. Operation of the device using a heavy sealing liquid has been described above. Where a lighter sealing fluid is used, sufficient flow line fluid is charged to the device to partially fill the vapor dome and the outer chamber of the trap. Sealing medium is then charged to the vapor dome. Suflicient pressure is maintained on the flow line fluid to prevent the sealing fluid from passing out of the vapor dome. After the sealing fluid has been charged 4 the full pressure of the flow line is released thereon and sealing fluid is vaporized by means of the heating unit. The desired volume of vapor is formed and maintained as has been previously described.
For those skilled in the art it will be obvious that many alterations and modifications in the construction and operation of this device may be made without change in the principles and scope of my invention.
