Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a positive and negative pressure environmental control system and method for a ship cabin, belonging to the technical field of ship auxiliary machinery. Background Art

[0002] Special-purpose ships such as ocean ro-ro passenger ships, large medical rescue ships, and multi-functional scientific research ships operating at sea have extremely harsh sea environments and long sailing operation times. Usually, independent medical isolation negative-pressure cabin areas are set up to receive, accommodate, isolate, and treat crew members with abnormal physical conditions. These cabin areas usually need to ensure a certain negative pressure relative to adjacent living and residential cabins to prevent germs from spreading to other ship cabin areas through air transmission, thus avoiding large-scale cluster infection incidents. At present, the conventional technical solution for the above-mentioned medical isolation negative-pressure cabin area is to configure one or several sets of independent mechanical ventilation systems, use airtight air ducts to transport air, set natural air inlets, exhaust fans, and mechanical air outlets to achieve the guarantee and control of the negative pressure gradient in the above area, and the atmospheric temperature and humidity of the cabin environment are adjusted by an independent air-conditioning system.

[0003] Special-purpose ships such as oil and gas drilling ships, new energy-powered ships, emergency fire rescue ships, refrigerated cargo ships, and ocean fishing boats operating at sea usually have a large amount of volatile, flammable, and explosive dangerous gases around the ship's air environment or equipment engine rooms. To ensure the safety of crew members and the ship, a safe cabin area needs to be set up and maintain a certain positive pressure gradient relative to the outside atmosphere or dangerous area to prevent dangerous gases from entering. At present, the conventional technical solution for positive pressure control in the above-mentioned safe cabin area usually configures one or several sets of independent mechanical ventilation systems, uses airtight air ducts to transport air, sets mechanical air inlets, supply fans, and natural air outlets to achieve the guarantee and control of the positive pressure gradient in the above area, and the atmospheric temperature and humidity of the cabin environment are usually regulated by an independent air-conditioning system.

[0004] During the implementation of the conventional technical solution, once the exhaust fan fails or the ship experiences a power failure, the mechanical ventilation system immediately fails, the control of the positive and negative pressure gradients in the area immediately fails, and the control of the atmospheric temperature and humidity in the cabin environment immediately fails. In the existing literature, the existing technical solution is to increase the standby power supply, redundant exhaust fans, etc. of the system, which to a certain extent avoids single-point fan failures and main power failures, thus ensuring the control of the positive and negative pressure gradients in the area and the control of the atmospheric temperature and humidity in the cabin environment. During the implementation of the above improved technical solution, due to the high dependence on the ship's power supply, when the ship experiences an emergency condition, the power supply is limited or the entire ship loses power, the functions of the exhaust fan and the independent air conditioner are limited, which is very likely to cause the cabin environment temperature to get out of control and the positive and negative pressure gradients in the area to get out of control, making it difficult to meet the higher-level actual use requirements of the ship.

[0036] The technical solution of this application also provides a method for positive and negative pressure environmental control of ship cabins, which includes the following two aspects:

[0037] I. Positive pressure environmental control method for ship cabins

[0038] The first step Z1: When the ship is operating normally, the conventional mechanical air supply system is turned on alone to maintain the positive pressure gradient of the atmospheric environment in the ship cabin under normal conditions. At this time, the ship is powered by the main generator, the berthing generator, and the emergency generator. The central controller 401 controls the first air supply air booster 102 of the air inlet duct unit 100 to turn on, and the rest of the system equipment is in standby and off states, mechanically supplies air to the safety cabin unit 500, and adjusts the air supply volume through frequency conversion, and naturally discharges the atmosphere in the cabin to the atmospheric environment through the exhaust fan 201 to maintain the positive pressure gradient in the cabin.

[0039] Furthermore, the first air supply air booster 102 adopts a variable-frequency axial-flow fan, and determines the minimum air change rate, the minimum ventilation air volume, the pressure gradient index, etc. of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the requirements of the classification society code guidelines, laws and regulations, technical specifications, etc.

[0040] The second step Z2: When the ship's power system fails or the conventional mechanical air supply system fails, the positive and negative pressure environmental control system for ship cabins is turned on to maintain the positive pressure gradient of the atmospheric environment in the cabin under special circumstances. At this time, the ship cannot be powered by the conventional main generator, berthing generator, and emergency generator. The central controller 401 controls the first positive pressure environmental control branch L1, the second negative pressure environmental control branch L2, and the third positive pressure environmental control branch L3 to be turned on and off in an orderly manner.

[0041] Specifically, the first gas storage tank 301 and the first gas release valve 304 are opened, the pipeline connecting the first gas distribution valve 307 to the first air supply air booster 102 is opened, and the first air supply air booster 102 conveys clean and fresh outside air to the safety cabin unit 500 through the air inlet duct unit 100, and the air in the cabin is naturally discharged from the safety cabin unit 500 through the exhaust duct unit 200.

[0042] Furthermore, the first air supply booster 102 uses a pneumatic turbine fan. The minimum air change rate, minimum ventilation air volume, pressure gradient index, etc. of the safety cabin unit 500 are determined according to the requirements of classification society code guidelines, laws and regulations, technical specifications, etc.

[0043] The third step Z3: When the ship's power system fails or the conventional mechanical air supply system fails, activate the positive and negative pressure environmental control system of the ship's cabin to maintain the positive pressure gradient and environmental temperature of the cabin atmosphere under special circumstances. Specifically, based on the second step, control the environmental temperature of the cabin atmosphere.

[0044] If the cabin needs to be cooled, the central controller 401 controls the pipeline connecting the first gas distribution valve 307 to the first cooler 310 to open. The first cooler 310 maintains the environmental temperature of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the temperature feedback of the first sensor 403. In addition, the central controller 401 controls the third gas storage 303 and the third gas release valve 306 to release air, and the pipeline connecting the third gas distribution valve 309 to the third cooler 312 to open. The third cooler 312 maintains the environmental temperature of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the temperature feedback of the second sensor 404.

[0045] If the cabin needs to be heated, the central controller 401 controls the second gas storage 302 and the second gas release valve 305 to open, and the pipeline connecting the second gas distribution valve 308 to the second cooler 311 to open. The second cooler 311 maintains the environmental temperature of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the temperature feedback of the first sensor 403.

[0046] II. Negative pressure environmental control method for ship cabins

[0047] The first step F1: When the ship is operating normally, activate the conventional mechanical exhaust system alone to maintain the negative pressure gradient of the ship's cabin atmosphere under normal circumstances. At this time, the ship is powered by the main generator, the berthing generator, and the emergency generator. The central controller 401 controls the second exhaust air booster 203 of the exhaust air duct unit 200 to open, and the rest of the system equipment is in standby and closed states. Natural air supply to the cabin is carried out through the first air supply device 106, and the exhaust air volume is adjusted by frequency conversion. The atmosphere of the safety cabin unit 500 is mechanically exhausted to the atmosphere through the exhaust device 201 to maintain the negative pressure gradient of the cabin.

[0048] Furthermore, the first exhaust air booster 202 uses a variable frequency axial flow fan. The minimum air change rate, minimum ventilation air volume, pressure gradient index, etc. of the safety cabin unit 500 are determined according to the requirements of classification society code guidelines, laws and regulations, technical specifications, etc.

[0049] Second step F2: When there is a failure in the ship's power system or the conventional mechanical air supply system, the positive and negative pressure environmental control system for the ship's cabins is activated to maintain the negative pressure gradient of the cabin atmosphere in special situations. At this time, the ship cannot be powered by the conventional main generator, berthing generator, or emergency generator. The central controller 401 controls the sequential opening and closing of the first positive pressure environmental control branch L1 and the second negative pressure environmental control branch L2.

[0050] Specifically, the central controller 401 controls the opening of the second gas storage 302 and the second gas release valve 305, and the opening of the pipeline connecting the second gas distribution valve 308 to the first exhaust air booster 202. The first exhaust air booster 202 of the exhaust air duct unit 200 mechanically discharges the air in the safety cabin unit 500, and the fresh air duct unit 100 supplies clean and fresh outside air to the safety cabin unit 500 for natural makeup air.

[0051] Furthermore, the first exhaust air booster 202 uses a pneumatic turbine fan. The minimum air change rate, minimum ventilation air volume, pressure gradient index, etc. of the safety cabin unit 500 are determined according to the requirements of classification society code guidelines, laws and regulations, technical specifications, etc.

[0052] Third step F3: When there is a failure in the ship's power system or the conventional mechanical air supply system, the positive and negative pressure environmental control system for the ship's cabins is activated to maintain the negative pressure gradient and environmental temperature of the cabin atmosphere in special situations. Specifically, on the basis of the second step, the environmental temperature of the cabin atmosphere is controlled.

[0053] If the cabin needs to be cooled, the central controller 401 controls the opening of the first gas storage 301 and the first gas release valve 304, and the opening of the pipeline connecting the first gas distribution valve 307 to the first cooler 310. The first cooler 310 maintains the environmental temperature of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the temperature feedback of the first sensor 403.

[0054] If the cabin needs to be heated, the central controller 401 controls the opening of the pipeline connecting the second gas distribution valve 308 to the second cooler 311. The second cooler 311 maintains the environmental temperature of the safety cabin unit 500 according to the temperature feedback of the first sensor 403.

[0055] The positive and negative pressure environmental control system and method for ship cabins of the present invention can ensure that the safety cabin unit 500 maintains the set pressure gradient control and environmental temperature control when there is a failure in the ship's power system or the conventional mechanical ventilation system, thereby meeting the higher-level actual use requirements of the cabin environment under various operating conditions of the ship, and providing a strong guarantee for the safe operation of the ship and the life safety of personnel.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features.
