[0002] At present, the production method of liquid carbon dioxide vaporization mainly adopts air-temperature vaporizer; because the air-temperature vaporizer adopts star-shaped aluminum fin tubes, in order to ensure good ventilation effect, the gap between the star-shaped fin tubes is wide, so the air-temperature vaporizer occupies a large area; due to the uncertainty of air supply time and ambient temperature, the air supply stability of the air-temperature vaporizer is poor; the outer surface of the fin tube of the air-temperature vaporizer is greatly affected by the surrounding air temperature and relative humidity, and the vaporization process absorbs the surrounding heat, causing the surrounding temperature to drop, and the water vapor in the air changes to a solid state and adheres to the surface of the air-temperature vaporizer, resulting in frost. Over time, the frost layer accumulates into ice; the continuous operation of the air-temperature vaporizer will be long, and frost and ice will occur, resulting in increased thermal resistance, which seriously affects the heat exchange efficiency of the air-temperature vaporizer.

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0017] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a liquid-phase carbon dioxide vaporization device using steam as a heat medium includes a water bath vaporizer 3, a first stainless steel coil 18 for passing steam and a second stainless steel coil 19 for vaporizing liquid-phase carbon dioxide are provided inside the water bath vaporizer 3, the top shell inlet of the water bath vaporizer 3 is connected to the primary water network 9, and an overflow port 10 is provided at the upper part of the water bath vaporizer 3. The liquid-phase carbon dioxide vaporization device in the utility model is based on the water bath vaporizer 3, and uses the steam from the first stainless steel coil 18 as a heat medium, and uses the first stainless steel coil 18 and the primary water in the shell of the water bath vaporizer 3 as a heat exchange medium to exchange heat with the liquid-phase carbon dioxide from the second stainless steel coil 19, so as to achieve the purpose of vaporizing carbon dioxide.

[0018] Furthermore, the inlet of the second stainless steel coil 19 is connected to the liquid phase outlet 16 in the liquid carbon dioxide storage tank 2 through the first shut-off valve 4, and the outlet of the second stainless steel coil 19 is connected to the carbon dioxide gas-using device 11 through the self-operated pressure reducing valve 6.

The above arrangement enables the low-pressure saturated steam in the steam buffer tank 1 to enter the first stainless steel coil 18 to exchange heat with the primary water. The heat exchange of the primary water can not only provide heat for the liquid carbon dioxide, but also prevent the outer surface of the water bath vaporizer 3 from frosting, thereby avoiding affecting the vaporization efficiency of the carbon dioxide.

[0022] The utility model further includes a temperature sensor 20 disposed on the water bath vaporizer 3 for detecting the temperature inside the shell of the water bath vaporizer 3.
