[0002] LNG is the abbreviation for Liquefied Natural Gas. Natural gas is a combustible gas naturally extracted from gas fields, primarily composed of methane. LNG is produced by cooling gaseous natural gas at atmospheric pressure to -162°C, causing it to condense into a liquid. Liquefaction of natural gas significantly saves storage and transportation space and offers advantages such as high calorific value and superior performance. LNG vehicles are a new generation of natural gas vehicles that use cryogenic liquefied natural gas as fuel. Their key advantages include LNG's high energy density, resulting in a long driving range of over 400 km, offering significant economic benefits compared to vehicles using diesel or gasoline.
[0003] Currently, most LNG cylinders installed on heavy vehicles lack a cooling box, resulting in exposed installation. This leads to excessively high surface temperatures, affecting the normal operation of the LNG cylinders and posing safety hazards.
