Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of thermal insulation design technology for marine liquid tanks, and more specifically, to a thermal insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​a liquid tank and its installation method. Background Technology

[0002] On liquefied gas carriers, the liquid-tight shell used to load cryogenic liquid cargo is commonly referred to as a liquid tank. Liquid tanks can be divided into membrane-type liquid tanks and freestanding liquid tanks. Freestanding liquid tanks include Type A, Type B, and Type C. Among them, Type B freestanding liquid tanks have advantages such as large cargo carrying capacity, unlimited cargo loading volume, low daily cargo evaporation, convenient installation, and easy maintenance, and have been widely used in carriers transporting liquefied gases such as natural gas and liquefied ethane / ethylene. According to the design specifications of freestanding liquid tanks, in order to limit the heat flow entering the tank to a level that the pressure and temperature control system can maintain, an insulation layer needs to be installed on the surface of the tank to control the temperature, pressure, and evaporation rate of the cryogenic liquid cargo inside the tank at the design level.

[0003] Currently, independent Type B liquid tanks primarily achieve insulation by installing prefabricated insulation panels on the tank surface. However, for the uniquely structured Type B liquid tanks, especially the liquid collection area, a single insulation structure has certain limitations. The liquid collection area of ​​a Type B liquid tank serves to collect and store cryogenic liquid leaked after a tank rupture. It mainly consists of a cryogenic metal plate forming a collection protrusion at the bottom of the tank, with a reinforcing structure connecting the cryogenic metal plate to the tank surface.

[0004] Given the relatively complex structure of the liquid collection area, how to design the insulation system in this area to achieve better insulation and liquid collection functions has become a long-term research topic in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0016] The side dimension of the third precast slab facing the fourth precast slab is the same as the side dimension of the fourth precast slab facing the third precast slab.

[0017] In one feasible embodiment, the surface of the structural reinforcement zone includes a portion of the side surface area of ​​the liquid collection protrusion where the reinforcement structure is located, a portion of the bottom surface area near the side surface, and a portion of the bottom surface area of ​​the liquid tank where the reinforcement structure is located.

[0018] In one feasible approach, the prefabricated insulation panels have a uniform thickness, and the surface of the sprayed insulation layer is flush with the surface of the prefabricated insulation panels.

[0019] In one feasible solution, each prefabricated insulation panel includes an inner layer and an outer layer attached to the surface of the inner layer.

[0020] The insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​the liquid tank also includes fixed components, joint insulation structures, and elastic insulation layers.

[0021] The fixing components are used to fix the prefabricated insulation panels, the joint insulation structure is filled in the joint between adjacent prefabricated insulation panels, and the elastic insulation layer is set at the adjacent position between the prefabricated insulation panels and the sprayed insulation layer.

[0022] In one feasible embodiment, on the side where the prefabricated insulation panels meet, the side of the outer layer is at a predetermined distance from the side of the inner layer to form a first stepped surface on the upper surface of the inner layer edge; the prefabricated insulation panels include a first joint between adjacent inner layers and a second joint between adjacent outer layers.

[0026] The prefabricated insulation board has a perforated structure near the edge of the sprayed insulation layer. The perforated structure passes through the outer layer and the inner layer in sequence, and the perforation size on the outer layer is larger than that on the inner layer, so as to form a second step surface at the edge of the perforation in the inner layer.

[0027] A fixing component is installed in the hole of the inner layer. One end of the fixing component is fixed to the surface of the liquid collection area, and the other end is pressed against the second step surface of the inner layer.

[0028] An insulating patch is filled into the corresponding hole in the outer layer.

[0029] In one feasible solution, the fixing components include embedded parts, fixing rods, fixing plates, and fasteners;

[0030] The embedded part is pre-installed on the surface of the liquid collection area, and the bottom end of the fixing rod is connected to the embedded part;

[0031] The fixing piece has a central concave structure and an upper opposing folded edge structure; the concave structure is inserted into the first joint between adjacent inner layers or into the hole in the inner layer; the upper opposing folded edges are respectively covered on the adjacent first step surface at the joint of adjacent inner layers, or covered on the second step surface of the inner layer of the hole structure.

[0033] In one feasible solution, the insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​the liquid tank also includes a protective layer, which is laid on the surface of the sprayed insulation layer and the prefabricated insulation panel to form a panel insulation layer, and the protective layers are overlapped at the joints.

[0034] Secondly, a method for installing the aforementioned insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​the liquid tank is also provided, comprising:

[0035] Prepare prefabricated insulation panels, fixing components, joint insulation structures, elastic insulation layers, protective layers, and insulation materials for forming the sprayed insulation layer.

[0036] According to the design requirements, the liquid collection area is divided into grids. On the one hand, a structurally reinforced area with a reinforced structure is divided into a non-structurally reinforced area. In the non-structurally reinforced area, the installation area of ​​each prefabricated insulation panel is divided, and the installation position of the fixing component is located.

A prefabricated insulation panel is applied to the surface of the non-structurally reinforced area to form a panel-type insulation layer. Since there are no irregularly shaped reinforcing structures in the non-structurally reinforced area, the prefabricated insulation panel can relatively easily adhere to the surface of the area, achieving a better insulation effect. Furthermore, a gap is reserved between the prefabricated insulation panel and the surface of the non-structurally reinforced area, which can guide leaked cryogenic liquid to the area, realizing the collection and storage of cryogenic liquid leaked after a tank rupture. Simultaneously, due to the presence of irregularly shaped reinforcing structures in the structurally reinforced area, the sprayed insulation layer formed by spraying insulation material can adhere very well to the surface of the structurally reinforced area, thereby effectively reducing the risk of heat loss at the reinforced structure and improving the insulation effect at the reinforced structure.

[0043] In summary, the liquid collection area insulation system of this application, through the combined application of plate insulation layer and sprayed insulation layer, achieves the liquid collection function in the collection area while also achieving better insulation effect.

Detailed Implementation

[0054] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0055] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, this application first provides a thermal insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​a liquid tank. See also... Figure 1 The bottom of the liquid tank 200 is provided with a liquid collecting protrusion 100 for collecting liquid. The liquid collecting protrusion 100 includes a bottom surface and four surrounding sides. The bottom surface of the liquid collecting protrusion 100, its four surrounding sides, and a portion of the bottom surface of the liquid tank 200 within a predetermined range around the liquid collecting protrusion 100 constitute a liquid collecting area. See also Figure 2 A reinforcing structure 300 is provided at the junction of at least two sides of the liquid collection protrusion 100 and the bottom surface of the liquid tank 200.

[0057] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in the liquid tank collection area insulation system of this embodiment, the area of ​​the predetermined size where the reinforcing structure 300 is located in the collection area is the structural reinforcement area, and the other areas are non-structural reinforcement areas. The liquid tank collection area insulation system includes a prefabricated insulation panel 1 and a sprayed insulation layer 2. If the prefabricated insulation panel 1 is laid on the non-structural reinforcement area to form a panel-type insulation layer, a gap is reserved between the prefabricated insulation panel 1 and the surface of the non-structural reinforcement area. The sprayed insulation layer 2 is laid on the structural reinforcement area, and it is formed by spraying insulation material onto the structural reinforcement area, curing it, and then polishing it.

[0058] In the liquid collection area insulation system of this embodiment, the collection area is divided into a structurally reinforced area and a non-structurally reinforced area based on whether the area has a reinforcing structure 300. A prefabricated insulation panel 1 is laid on the surface of the non-structurally reinforced area to form a panel-type insulation layer. Since there are no irregularly shaped reinforcing structures 300 in the non-structurally reinforced area, the prefabricated insulation panel 1 can relatively easily adhere to the area surface, achieving a better insulation effect. Furthermore, a gap is reserved between the prefabricated insulation panel 1 and the surface of the non-structurally reinforced area, which can guide leaked cryogenic liquid to the area, realizing the collection and storage of cryogenic liquid leaked after a tank rupture. Simultaneously, in the structurally reinforced area, due to the presence of irregularly shaped reinforcing structures 300, the sprayed insulation layer 2 formed by spraying insulation material can adhere very well to the surface of the structurally reinforced area, thereby effectively reducing the risk of heat loss at the reinforcing structure 300 and improving the insulation effect at the reinforcing structure 300.

[0059] In summary, the liquid collection area insulation system of this embodiment, through the combined application of plate insulation layer and sprayed insulation layer, achieves the liquid collection function in the collection area while also achieving better insulation effect.

That is, the sprayed insulation layer 2 completely covers the side reinforcement structure 300 and extends to cover a portion of the bottom surface of the liquid tank 200 and a portion of the bottom surface of the liquid collecting protrusion 100.

[0062] Preferably, the thickness of each prefabricated insulation panel 1 is consistent, and the surface of the sprayed insulation layer 2 is flush with the surface of the prefabricated insulation panel 1.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figures 4 to 11As shown, each prefabricated insulation panel 1 includes an inner layer 101 and an outer layer 102 attached to the surface of the inner layer 101. For example... Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​the liquid tank also includes a fixing component 3, a joint insulation structure 4, and an elastic insulation layer 5. The fixing component 3 is used to fix the prefabricated insulation panel 1, the joint insulation structure 4 is filled in the joint between adjacent prefabricated insulation panels 1, and the elastic insulation layer 5 is set at the adjacent position between the prefabricated insulation panel 1 and the sprayed insulation layer 2.

[0064] In some embodiments, in the structure of the prefabricated insulation panel 1, the outer layer 102 may consist of only a single layer of insulation, or it may include at least two layers of insulation stacked together. Similarly, the inner layer 101 may consist of only a single layer of insulation, or it may include at least two layers of insulation stacked together. A reinforcing layer 105 may be provided between adjacent insulation layers and between the outer layer 102 and the inner layer 101. The reinforcing layer 105 may be a planar mesh structure. The main material of the insulation layer includes, but is not limited to, polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam, polyethylene plastic, and phenolic foam, and it may be reinforced with glass fiber, hollow glass microspheres, etc. The reinforcing layer 105 may be composed of one or more mesh materials, such as glass fiber mesh, carbon fiber mesh, and metal mesh.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, in the side where the prefabricated insulation panels 1 and 1 are joined, the side of the outer layer 102 is a predetermined distance from the side of the inner layer 101, so as to form a first step surface 103 on the upper surface of the edge of the inner layer 101; the adjacent prefabricated insulation panels 1 include a first joint between adjacent inner layers 101 and a second joint between adjacent outer layers 102; a fixing component 3 is provided in the first joint of the adjacent prefabricated insulation panels 1, one end of the fixing component 3 is fixed to the surface of the liquid collection area, and the other end is pressed on the first step surface 103 of the adjacent inner layer 101; a joint insulation structure 4 is sealed and filled in the second joint of the adjacent prefabricated insulation panels 1.

Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the prefabricated insulation panel 1 has a perforated structure T near the edge of the sprayed insulation layer 2. (See also...) Figure 11 The perforated structure T passes sequentially through the outer layer 102 and the inner layer 101, with the perforation size on the outer layer 102 being larger than that on the inner layer 101, thus forming a second stepped surface 104 at the edge of the perforation in the inner layer 101. A fixing component 3 is installed in the perforation of the inner layer 101, with one end fixed to the surface of the liquid collection area and the other end pressed against the second stepped surface 104 of the inner layer 101. See also... Figure 2 Insulation patch 6 is filled into the hole corresponding to the outer layer 102. See also Figure 13 The shape of the thermal insulation patch 6 can take many forms.

[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the fixing component 3 includes an embedded part 31, a fixing rod 32, a fixing plate 33, and a fastener 34.

The fastener 34 passes through the central concave structure of the fixing plate 33 and is connected to the top end of the fastener 34 to press the fixing plate 33 onto the first step surface 103 or the second step surface 104.

[0069] The embedded part 31 can be a welded bolt embedded in the surface of the liquid collection area, and the fastener 34 can be a standard bolt. The two ends of the fixing rod 32 can be provided with internal threaded holes for threaded engagement with the embedded part 31 and the fastener 34, respectively. The fixing rod 32 can be made of a material with low thermal conductivity, including but not limited to wood, plastics, and composite materials, such as wood and Teflon plastics, thereby reducing heat transmission along the axial direction of the fixing rod 32. The fixing plate 33 can be made of a low-temperature resistant material, including but not limited to metals, plastics, and composite materials.

[0070] In some embodiments, the fixing component 3 may further include an elastic bushing (not shown) and an insulating filler (not shown). The elastic bushing is fitted onto the outer wall of the fixing rod 32, and the insulating filler is filled into the recessed structure in the middle of the fixing piece 33.

In addition, a filler layer (not shown) may be provided between the insulating filler and the fastener 34, the materials of which include, but are not limited to, low-temperature adhesive, silicone, epoxy resin adhesive, etc., to further increase the sealing and thermal insulation effect.

[0071] In some embodiments, the insulation system for the liquid collection area of ​​the liquid tank includes a protective layer 7, which is applied to the surface of the plate-type insulation layer formed by the splicing of the sprayed insulation layer 2 and the prefabricated insulation panel 1, with the protective layers 7 overlapping at the joints. The material of the protective layer 7 includes polymer materials (such as thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer (TPO), which is made of polyolefin resins including but not limited to polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), fiberglass materials, and metal materials, etc. It can provide good mechanical protection and anti-aging protection.

[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, a pad 201 is provided between the prefabricated insulation board 1 and the surface of the liquid collection area to form a leakage channel between the prefabricated insulation board 1 and the surface of the liquid collection area, so that the low-temperature liquid leaked after the main screen wall fails is collected in the liquid collection area along this channel and then guided out.
