AI Technical Summary
Existing natural gas pipeline connection structures are prone to leakage in hydrogen-containing environments, posing safety hazards. Furthermore, sealing materials are prone to aging and metal parts are prone to cracking.
The main sealing ring, made of a hydrogen-resistant metal material, and the secondary sealing ring, made of a polymer material with excellent hydrogen compatibility, form a double sealing barrier. It is also equipped with a gas leakage detection component, which enables automatic leakage monitoring through a purely mechanical structure.
It improves sealing reliability and durability, enables early detection and quantification of leaks, has a reasonable system design, high safety, and is suitable for hydrogen-blended natural gas transportation.
