Definitions

  • the invention contemplates a vaporizer which incorporates a substantially long enclosed passage of relatively small cross sectional area through which atmospheric air is drawn solely by natural convection. Means are provided for passing the liquid through an area surrounded by.moving atmospheric air. As the low temperature liquid is passed through this area, it acquires its heat of vaporization from the atmospheric air and is vaporized. A portion of the vaporizer effects a de-humidification of the atmospheric air while a succeeding portion eifects the main body of heat transfer requisite to the beneficial vaporization of such a liquefied gas.
  • a tank car is shown generally at 10. Mounted on the side of the tank car by any conventional means, such as brackets 11, is a vaporizer 12 embodying the features of this invention.
  • the tank car is of the type constructed to carry LOX (liquid oxygen). 0n the other hand, it might carry one of several other liquefied gases having extremely low boiling points (less than about 230 K.), including liquid nitrogen.
  • the vaporizer 12 is adapted to induce a pressure build-up within the tank car 10 to effect a pumping of the LOX from the car. Since the vaporizer 12 finds advantageous application as a pumping system for a tank car, the succeeding discussion will be couched in terms of such a system to simplify an understanding of the invention. However, it will be readily understood that the principles of the invention find advantageous application in numerous systems requiring the vaporization of a liquefied gas.
  • a pressure build-up is effected in the tank by metering a small portion of the LOX stored in the tank car through the vaporizer 12.
  • the vaporizer effects heat transfer between the atmospheric air and the LOX and a boiling of the LOX results as it picks up its heat of vaporization from the warmerair. Consequently, the LOX is vaporized and passes out of the vaporizer 12 and back into the tank car 10 above the level of the liquid stored inside the tank car to build up pressure within the car and cause the stored LOX in the car to be pumped out.
  • a LOX inlet pipe 13 connects the tank car 10 with the vaporizer 12 and is adapted to meter LOX from the car to the vaporizer.
  • a vapor outlet pipe 14 connects the discharge end of the vaporizer 12 to the tank car 10.
  • the vaporizer 12 is shown to include a generally irregularly shaped housing 20 which encloses a heat transfer complex 21.
  • the LOX courses in one direction through the housing 20 inside the heat transfer complex 21 while the atmospheric air passes in the other direction through the housing 20 in surrounding relationship to the heat transfer complex 21.
  • the LOX is vaporized during its passage through the complex 21 whereupon it returns to the tank car 10 and eifects a pressure build-up and consequent pumping of the remaining LOX out of the tank car, as has been pointed out.
  • the housing 20 includes a rolled sheet metal top 22 and a bottom 23. Appropriately shaped side walls 24, of rolled metal construction also, connect the top 22 and the bottom 23. The walls and the bottom might be joined by any conventional means such as welding, for example. Secured over the inlet end of the housing 20 is an expanded metal cover 25, while the discharge end of the housing is open, as at 26. The relatively warm atmospheric air enters the housing through the expanded metal cover 25 and is discharged in relatively cool condition at the discharge end 26.
  • the heat transfer complex 21 which carries the LOX through the housing 20, is supported within the housing by a spaced pair of support plates 30.
  • the support plates 30 are or irregular configuration corresponding generally to the configuration of the side walls 24 (see FIGURE 2).
  • the plates 30 are spaced apart within the housing 20 and secured to the top 22 and bottom 23 of the housing by any well known means, such as welding.
  • the heat transfer complex 21, which is supported by the plates 30, includes an inlet header 35, an outlet header 36, and a series (seen generally at 37) of superimposed serpentine pipe assemblies 39-44 which interconnect the inlet header 35 and the outlet header 36.
  • the inlet header 35 receives LOX through the inlet pipes 13 whereupon the LOX passes through one of the Pipe assemblies 39-4-4 to the outlet header 36. It is vaporized i-n the process, and the vaporpasses out of the header 36 through the outlet pipe 14.
  • the superimposed series 37 of serpentine pipe assemblies 39-44 are substantially identical to each other. They each define a generally arcuate path in side elevation from the inlet header 35 to the outlet header 36.
  • the heat transfer complex 21 is divided into a precooling section 56 (broadly that portion of the series 37 of pipe assemblies 39-44 to the right of line A in FIG- URE 2) which effects a de-humidification of the incoming atmospheric air, and a main transfer section Sll .(broadly that portion of the series 37 to the left of line A) which effects the greater portion of the vaporization of the LOX accomplished by the vaporizer 12.
  • a precooling section 56 (broadly that portion of the series 37 of pipe assemblies 39-44 to the right of line A in FIG- URE 2) which effects a de-humidification of the incoming atmospheric air
  • a main transfer section Sll (broadly that portion of the series 37 to the left of line A) which effects the greater portion of the vaporization of the LOX accomplished by the vaporizer 12.
  • Each of the pipe assemblies 39-44 is substantially identical in configuration and is adapted individually to convey LOX from the inlet header 35, thr-ough a vaporization process as the LOX passes through the length of the pipe assembly, to the outlet header 36 in vapor form. Since the structure of each pipe assembly is identical, with but minor insignificant exceptions, only the pipe assembly 39 will be described in detail.
  • the serpentine pipe assembly 39 is shown in fragmentary plan view. It includes a generally regularly spaced-series of bare pipes 6t), extending in generally parallel relationship and supported in aligned apertures 61 in the support plates 3th.
  • the pipes 60 are preferably composed of a highly heat conductive copper alloy and secured to the support plates 30by any conventional means such as brazing or the like.
  • a fitting 62 provides communication between the outlet header 36 and the pipe 66 which is closest to the expanded metal cover 25.
  • the succeeding pipes 60 are however, and any highly conductive material might beused.
  • the pre-cooling section 56 effects a de-humidification of the atmospheric air as it moves into the vaporizer through the expanded metal cover 25.
  • the pipes 60 are bare and spaced a substantial distance apart. This is important because frost, of course, builds up on each pipe 60 as Water vapor is deposited. Since the pipes 6!) are spaced .a reasonable distance apart, however, the passage' of atmospheric air through the inlet section 50 is not impeded or blocked by the build up of frost.
  • the remaining portion of the pipe assembly 39 along with like portions of the underlying series of pipe assemblies 49-44, make up the primary heat transfer section 51 of the heat transfer complex 21.
  • Those portions of the pipe assemblies 39-44 which comprise the primary transfer section 51 include a series of generally regularly spaced pipes 65, extending in generally parallel relationship and supported in aligned apertures 66 in the support plates 36.
  • the pipes 65 are also preferably" composed of a highly conductive copper alloy and secured. to the support plates 30 by brazing or the like.
  • a fitting 67 provides communication between i the inlet header 35 and that pipe '65 which is closest to the discharge opening 26 of the housing 26.
  • the remain ing pipes 65 are then connected in communication with each other by the generally U-shaped fittings 63 which have been hereinbefor-e referred to.
  • the use of a copper alloy in the fitting 67 is preferred, of course, although as has been pointed out, other highly conductive materials might be used.
  • a series of fins 7l are mounted on the surface of each of the pipes 65 in a well known manner to provide a highly efficient heat transfer medium between the atmospheric air within the housing as and the LOX within the pipes 65.
  • the fins 71 might be mounted on corresponding pipes 65 in substantially closely packed relationship to provide the maximum surface area possible for heat transfer. That portion of the heat transfer complex which contains finned pipes 65, and is referred to as the primary heat transfer section 51, accomplishes the greatest proport-ion of the effective vaporization of LOX enclosed within the pipe assemblies 39-44, as has been pointed out; after the pre-cooling section 5t) has substantially de-humidified the air entering the housing 243.
  • the housing 20 is relatively long and has a relatively small cross sectional area, it will be seen that the enclosed passage between the expanded metal cover 25 and the discharge end 26 of the housing 20 will act as a chimney and the warmer atmospheric air adjacent the expanded metal cover will actually be drawn toward the now colder portion of the housing 20 adjacent the discharge end, by convection.
  • the moisture-laden atmospheric air enters the precooling section 50 of the heat transfer complex 21 in vaporizer 12, through the expanded metal cover 25, it is pre-cooled and consequently substantially de-humidified by the cold gas, or gas and liquid mixture, in the pipes 60.
  • Frost tends to build up on the pipes 60 but, as has been pointed out, because the pipes are bare and spaced at a substantial'distance apart, any build up of frost does not block the passage of air through the housing 20.
  • the relatively high velocity rush of air through the housing 20, induced by the chimney design tends to flow some of the frost which does form on the pipes 60 through the housing. Consequently, the passage of substantially de-humidified air to the primary heat transfer section 51 is assured.
  • the vaporizer 12 embodying the features of this present invention finds advantageous application with conventional vertically disposed storage tanks of one type or another as well as with tank cars.
  • a vaporizer is used as a pump for such a tank
  • the configurations of the housing and the enclosed heat transfer complex are different.
  • a vertically disposed tank would preferably have a vaporizer with a rectangular walled, box-like housing configuration enclosing correspondingly shaped pipe assemblies.
  • the shape of the vaporizer 12, which has been described in association with the tank car 10 is as it is merely to conform to the side of the tank car to prevent the vaporizer from being damaged.
  • the air passage incorporated in the vaporizer 12 is substantially long, with a relatively small height or thickness, so as to 6 6 without blocking or in any way shutting off the supply of air to the succeeding primary heat transfer section 51 of the vaporizer.
  • the heat transfer section is, of course, comprised of conduits having closely spaced fins of a highly conductive material mounted thereon. An extremely effective vaporizer combination is the result.
  • a container for storing a liquified gas and a system forpumping said liquified gas from said container with energy derived solely from the natural environment of the system said container comprising a horizontally disposed, generally cylindrical tank, said pumping system comprising fluid conduit means with heat transfer characteristics having inlet means at one end and outlet means at the opposite end, means for introducing liquified gas from said container into said inlet means of said conduit means for travel therethrough, a housing defining an elongated air passage enclosing said conduit means along its length and being open to the atmosphere at an inlet end and an outlet end, said housing being contoured to fit snugly against the side of said tank with said outlet end of said passage disposed adjacent the bottom of the tank and said inlet end disposed upwardly along the side of the tank, said air passage having a relatively small cross-sectional area, the length and cross-sectional dimensions of said passage being so related that the introduction of said liquified gas into said conduit means from said inlet means induce
