Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the design field of a gas constant temperature delivery system in a special laboratory. Specifically, it is a liquid nitrogen evaporation system with intermittent operation and constant temperature control. It provides nitrogen gas with constant temperature required by experiments within a specific time period. At the same time, the system operates intermittently according to experimental and production needs, thereby achieving the purpose of saving liquid nitrogen consumption, extending equipment life, and maintaining a constant gas temperature. Background Art

[0002] Nitrogen (N2) is the most abundant gas in Earth's atmosphere, accounting for approximately 78% of its volume. It is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and inert gas with low reactivity. Nitrogen's primary source is the nitrogen cycle, where Earth's plants and microorganisms convert atmospheric nitrogen into usable compounds for biological use. Due to its widespread presence and stability, nitrogen plays a vital role in nature and industry. Nitrogen (N2) is widely used in industrial and scientific fields, including industrial production, food and beverages, biomedicine, refrigeration and freezing, and the electronics and semiconductor industries.

[0003] When conducting some special scientific experiments, there will be some special requirements. In order to meet these special requirements, the system needs to be optimized and adjusted to achieve the purpose.

[0004] The utility model is a constant temperature gas delivery system for intermittent operation in special laboratories. Some experimental devices have very high requirements for gas temperature, requiring a temperature control range of 20±0.5℃. If this requirement is not met, the surfaces of the experimental device components will be damaged due to temperature changes. The experimental time is intermittent, and the experimental device needs to be corrected and adjusted during this period. Currently, there is basically no requirement for constant temperature of gas. If there is, it is only heated when the gas temperature is too low. In addition, during the intermittent period of the experiment, the gas system must be in a closed state to avoid unnecessary consumption of liquid nitrogen and shorten the service life of the equipment.

The solenoid valve and pneumatic valve are controlled by a temperature sensor installed in the gas pipeline, allowing the system to operate intermittently according to process requirements while ensuring that the gas source temperature meets the set value. This utility model achieves the experimental environment requirements of stable gas delivery and meets the experimental constant temperature control requirements. The system operates intermittently, saving liquid nitrogen consumption and extending the life of the equipment.

[0010] The utility model has the following advantages: the utility model provides an intermittently operated constant temperature controlled gas delivery system; under the condition of achieving the constant temperature gas delivery requirement, the purpose of increasing the probability of successful experimental operation; the advantages of the utility model are reflected in;

[0011] 1. Precise temperature control: constant temperature control technology is used to accurately adjust the temperature. This system sets a temperature sensor on the carburetor outlet pipe. At the same time, to ensure the accuracy of the temperature sensor measurement value, three groups of temperature sensors are set on the gas supply main line. The measurement values ​​of two groups are selected to control the action of the solenoid valve to ensure that the system operates stably within the set range. It is very suitable for temperature-sensitive applications.

[0012] Second, energy-saving operation: The intermittent operation mode is controlled according to the terminal process requirements and is started only when needed, which reduces the overall energy consumption and liquid nitrogen consumption. In the case of large load fluctuations, it can effectively reduce energy waste.

[0013] 3. Reduce operating costs: By optimizing operating time and energy consumption, long-term operating costs are reduced and economic efficiency is improved.

[0021] In the implementation of the intermittently operated constant temperature controlled liquid nitrogen evaporation system of the present invention, a low temperature stop valve 3 and a safety valve 4 are installed on the output pipeline of the low temperature liquid nitrogen storage tank 1 .

[0022] The cryogenic liquid nitrogen storage tank is equipped with a pressure gauge, level indicator, and pressure control device to monitor the conditions within the tank. Liquid nitrogen from the cryogenic liquid nitrogen storage tank flows through a pipeline into an air-temperature vaporizer, where it is heated, vaporized, and converted into gaseous nitrogen. The temperature of the gas at the air-temperature vaporizer outlet is set to 20°C (adjustable). A temperature sensor, pressure gauge, and safety valve are installed at the vaporizer outlet. These temperature sensors are interlocked with a pneumatic on / off valve in the vaporizer bypass line to maintain the set temperature of the nitrogen at the outlet. When the vaporizer is not operating, the pneumatic valve in the bypass line is open. When the outlet nitrogen temperature exceeds the set value, the on / off valve closes, allowing the vaporizer to operate, heating the nitrogen and maintaining the set temperature. A bleed pipe and safety valve are also provided to ensure that the system pressure does not exceed the design pressure. The nitrogen outlet line is equipped with a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, which are interlocked with the on / off solenoid valve in the vaporizer outlet line to control intermittent operation of the vaporization system.
