Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of refrigeration and cryogenic technology, and in particular to a liquid hydrogen pressurization system and a liquid hydrogen pressurization method. Background Art
[0002] Liquid hydrogen is one of the important forms of hydrogen energy utilization. A liquid hydrogen refueling station is a facility that effectively utilizes liquid hydrogen and can provide fuel for hydrogen fuel vehicles. In mature processes abroad, gaseous hydrogen is usually reduced to 20K for liquefaction in a liquid hydrogen plant, and then transported to a liquid hydrogen tank truck through a cryogenic transmission pipeline. The liquid hydrogen is then transported to a hydrogen refueling station by a liquid hydrogen tank truck, and then transported to a liquid hydrogen storage tank in the station through a cryogenic transmission pipeline and stored. At present, liquid hydrogen storage and gas hydrogen refueling stations need to provide 35 / 70MPa high-pressure gas hydrogen to hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and the power consumption required for liquid compression is lower than that for gas compression. Therefore, liquid hydrogen refueling stations usually use liquid hydrogen booster pumps to pressurize 1-3bar liquid hydrogen in the liquid hydrogen storage tank to the pressure required for refueling, and then after gasification and rewarming, they reach the temperature and pressure conditions required for refueling.
[0003] The liquid hydrogen booster pump used in the liquid hydrogen refueling station is a reciprocating piston pump. The liquid hydrogen at the inlet of the liquid hydrogen pump is usually in a saturated state and enters the compression chamber directly through the inlet valve. The cross-sectional area at the inlet valve becomes smaller, the flow rate increases, the dynamic pressure increases and the static pressure decreases. At the same time, the existence of flow loss makes the pressure entering the compression chamber lower than the saturation pressure, and the liquid hydrogen is partially vaporized, resulting in a decrease in the amount of liquid entering the compression chamber, reducing the volumetric efficiency of the pump. In severe cases, the pump cannot absorb liquid hydrogen. Summary of the invention
