Description

[0002] The Chinese government attaches great importance to the development and utilization of clean energy. Liquefied gas (such as liquefied natural gas, abbreviated as LNG) as a clean and efficient fossil energy plays an important role in the national energy structure adjustment and clean and low-carbon development strategy. In accordance with the national "double carbon" goal (i.e. achieving carbon emission peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060), LNG as a transitional energy helps to reduce carbon emissions during the energy transition and plays an important role in achieving this goal.
[0003] During transportation, some liquefied gases need large transport ships and land storage devices. The storage of liquefied gas mainly adopts tank storage. For some liquefied gases such as LNG, the construction of the storage tank is difficult in terms of complex design requirements, strict material standards, safety reliability, environmental adaptability, regulatory compliance, and cost control.
[0004] The corrugated plates constituting the storage tank and the ship cabin need to maintain good airtightness and deformation resistance. The corrugated corner plate serves to connect the side wall corrugated plate and the bottom corrugated plate of the tank body, while ensuring the airtightness of the connection and meeting the working conditions under specific environmental requirements, i.e. having high environmental adaptability. Therefore, the structure, shape and forming quality of the corrugated corner plate are particularly important. However, the smoothness at the intersection of the existing corrugated corner plate, the uniformity in the thickness direction, and the overall strength and reliability of the corrugated plate need to be improved.

[0046] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present application clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted in the present application.
[0047] First of all, it should be pointed out that the direction terms and position terms mentioned in the present application are only exemplary descriptions and not limiting descriptions. The position and orientation descriptions of the components should be understood as relative positions and not absolute positions. Among them, the position and orientation descriptions of the corrugated corner plate 10 should be understood with reference to the positions and orientations of the components shown in Figures 1-5, wherein in the position descriptions of two components, the "transverse direction" is represented by D1, the "longitudinal direction" is represented by D2, and the "height direction" is represented by D3.

[0048] It should be noted that when describing the appearance of the corrugated corner plate 10, the height direction D3 is represented as the extension direction of the first corrugation 30, and the transverse direction D1 is represented as the axis direction of the bottom arc 51 of the concave pressing portion 50; therefore, the longitudinal direction D2 is represented as the direction perpendicular to the plane defined by the transverse direction D1 and the height direction D3.
[0049] The embodiment of the present application provides a corrugated corner plate 10 of a liquefied gas storage tank. The liquefied gas storage tank can be a storage tank for storing liquefied gas on land or on a ship, and the corrugated corner plate 10 is a component of the tank body of the storage tank. The liquefied gas includes but is not limited to liquefied natural gas.
[0050] As shown in Figures 1-5, the corrugated corner plate 10 of the embodiment of the present application includes a corrugated corner plate body, a first corrugation 30, a second corrugation 40, and a concave pressing portion 50.
[0051] As shown in Figure 1, the corrugated corner plate body includes a first plate body 11 and a second plate body 12, and the intersection of the first plate body 11 and the second plate body 12 forms a corner portion 126. The included angle between the first plate body 11 and the second plate body 12 is α, wherein 90° < α < 180°, that is, the corner angle of the corrugated corner plate 10 is 90°-180°. The first corrugation 30 is formed on the first plate body 11. The second corrugation 40 is formed on the second plate body 12, and the second corrugation 40 intersects with the first corrugation 30 at the corner portion 126. The concave pressing portion 50 is formed at the intersection of the first corrugation 30 and the second corrugation 40. The corrugated corner plate 10 of the present application has a severe material deformation at a special part (the concave pressing portion 50), which ensures the strength and stability of the corrugated corner plate 10, and also exhibits good elasticity, shrinkage ability and tension.
[0052] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the first plate body 11 comprises a first plate portion 111 and a third plate portion 112, and the first corrugation 30 is formed at the intersection of the first plate portion 111 and the third plate portion 112. The intersection of the first corrugation 30 and the first plate portion 111 and the third plate portion 112 respectively smoothly transitions and extends along a plane.
[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the second plate body 12 comprises a second plate portion 121 and a fourth plate portion 122, and the second corrugation 40 is formed at the intersection of the second plate portion 121 and the fourth plate portion 122. The intersection of the second corrugation 40 and the second plate portion 121 and the fourth plate portion 122 respectively smoothly transitions and extends along a plane.
[0054] In some embodiments, the intersection of the concave-pressed portion 50 and the first corrugation 30, the second corrugation 40, the first plate body 11 and the second plate body 12 all smoothly transitions.
[0055] In some embodiments, the intersection of the corner portion 126 and the first plate body 11 and the second plate body 12 all smoothly transitions, i.e. the intersection of the first plate portion 111 and the second plate portion 121 smoothly transitions, and the intersection of the third plate portion 112 and the fourth plate portion 122 smoothly transitions.
[0056] The corrugated corner plate 10 of the present application has a smooth overall shape and a regular macroscopic shape, so as to ensure the strength and stability of the structure.
[0057] Preferably, the included angle of the first plate portion 111 and the second plate portion 121 is 135°, and the included angle of the third plate portion 112 and the fourth plate portion 122 is 135°.
[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the first corrugation 30 and the second corrugation 40 have the same cross-sectional shape taken by a plane perpendicular to the extending direction of the corrugation, so as to make the shape more regular. The cross-sectional shape of the first corrugation 30 and the second corrugation 40 can both be circular arch shape. The arch height H3 of the first corrugation 30 and the arch height H4 of the second corrugation 40 are equal, and the arch width W7 of the first corrugation 30 and the arch width W8 of the second corrugation 40 are equal. Further, the arch width dimension can be 1.5-2.5 times the arch height dimension. Such arrangement can make the stress variation and strain distribution variation of the corrugated corner plate 10 be in the optimal state.
[0059] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the first transition fillet 52 at the intersection of the two corrugations and the concave-pressed portion 50 respectively defines a first planar area 53 and a second planar area with the bottom arc 51 of the concave-pressed portion 50. In FIG. 2, only the first planar area 53 defined between the first transition fillet 52 at the intersection of the first corrugation 30 and the concave-pressed portion 50 and the bottom arc 51 of the concave-pressed portion 50 is shown.
[0060] Further, the first planar region 53 and the second planar region are both in the shape of a trapezoid, i.e., two trapezoidal planes are formed; the trapezoidal plane is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, so that the intersection with other parts can be smoothly transitioned. The first planar region 53 and the second planar region are mirror-symmetric about the central interface sandwiched by the two. Therefore, the dimensions of the two trapezoidal planes are equal. The two planar regions are transition parts of the two corrugations and the middle intersection part, and the two corrugations are mirror-symmetric about the 135-degree central interface; therefore, the two planar regions are naturally shaped. After the corrugated corner plate is shaped, the two corrugations are mirror-symmetric, and the two planar regions are also mirror-symmetric. Before use and during use, stress bias caused by the asymmetry of the two planar regions will not occur, and in turn, different internal stresses will not be generated on the two corrugations to cause deformation.
[0061] Optionally, the concave pressing part 50 is mirror-symmetric about the central interface 54 sandwiched by the two trapezoidal planes of the concave pressing part 50. However, the entire corrugated corner plate 10 is not mirror-symmetric about the central interface 54 sandwiched by the two trapezoidal planes of the concave pressing part 50. The entire corrugated corner plate 10 is symmetric about the interface at the center line of the two corrugations determined by the longitudinal direction D2 and the height direction D3.
[0062] In some embodiments, the concave pressing part 50 includes the first planar region 53, the second planar region, the first transition fillet 52 at the intersection of the two corrugations with the concave pressing part 50, the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56 at the connection of the concave pressing part 50 with the two plate bodies, and the second transition fillet 57 at the connection of the bottom arc 51 of the concave pressing part 50 with the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56. The concave pressing part 50 is smooth and fluent, which ensures its energy absorption and release effect in the application environment.
[0063] In some embodiments, the first plate part 111 and the third plate part 112 are symmetric about the interface at the first center line 32 of the first corrugation ridge 31 of the first corrugation 30 determined by the longitudinal direction D2 and the height direction D3. In some embodiments, the second plate part 121 and the fourth plate part 122 are symmetric about the interface at the second center line 42 of the second corrugation ridge 41 of the second corrugation 40 determined by the longitudinal direction D2 and the height direction D3. That is, the corrugated corner plate body includes two pairs (the first plate part 111 and the third plate part 112 constitute a pair, and the second plate part 121 and the fourth plate part 122 constitute a pair) of plate parts symmetric about the plane defined by the longitudinal direction D2 and the height direction D3.
[0064] The first plate surface of the first plate portion 111 and the third plate surface of the third plate portion 112 are both planar but not in the same plane (or, the first plate portion 111 and the third plate portion 112 are both flat plates but not coplanar). The second plate surface of the second plate portion 121 and the fourth plate surface of the fourth plate portion 122 are both planar but not in the same plane (or, the second plate portion 121 and the fourth plate portion 122 are both flat plates but not coplanar). The first plate portion 111, the second plate portion 121, the third plate portion 112 and the fourth plate portion 122 are all upwardly curved relative to the lateral direction D1 along the respective normal directions of the planes. The first plate portion 111 and the third plate portion 112 have the same upwardly curved height relative to the lateral direction D1, see Fig. 4. The second plate portion 121 and the fourth plate portion 122 have the same upwardly curved height relative to the lateral direction D1, see Fig. 5. The included angle between the outer normal N1 of the first plate surface and the outer normal N3 of the third plate surface and the included angle between the outer normal N2 of the second plate surface and the outer normal N4 of the fourth plate surface are both constant, but the two angles are not equal, which is manifested in space as that the two pairs of planes (plate portions) have different upwardly curved heights. Therefore, the first plate portion 111 and the second plate portion 121 are not mirror-symmetric about the central interface 54 between the two trapezoidal planes of the concave-pressed portion 50; the third plate portion 112 and the fourth plate portion 122 are not mirror-symmetric about the central interface 54 between the two trapezoidal planes of the concave-pressed portion 50.
[0065] By designing the plate portions to be curved, it is convenient to form an approximately circular tank body with the corrugated plates when assembled into a liquefied gas storage tank; and the different curved heights facilitate installation and welding.
[0066] In some embodiments, the first transition fillets 52 at the intersections of the two corrugations with the concave-pressed portion 50 each protrude outward in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the corrugations. The second transition fillets 57 at which the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56 are connected to the bottom circular arc 51 of the concave-pressed portion 50 each protrude outward in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the corrugations.
[0067] In some embodiments, the fourth transition fillet 123 at the intersection of the first plate portion 111 with the second plate portion 121 has a radius equal to that of the fifth transition fillet 124 at the intersection of the third plate portion 112 with the fourth plate portion 122, and the third transition fillet 113 at the intersection of the two corrugations with the four plate portions and the sixth transition fillet 125 each have a radius equal to that of the fourth transition fillet 123 and the fifth transition fillet 124. The fourth transition fillet 123 and the fifth transition fillet 124 are the corner portions 126 between the first plate body 11 and the second plate body 12. Making the radii of the above-mentioned transition fillets consistent facilitates the shaping of the corner corrugated plate and the aesthetic appearance of the product after forming.
[0068] The radius of the first transition round corner 52 at the intersection of the two corrugations and the concave portion 50 (i.e. the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56) is equal to the radius of the second transition round corner 57 between the bottom arc 51 of the concave portion 50 and the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56, and the radius of the transition round corner between the first side surface 55 and the second side surface 56. The first planar area 53 and the second planar area are equal to the radius of the seventh transition round corner 58 between the two corrugations.
[0069] It can be understood that the transition round corners mentioned in the present application are all smooth transition round corners.
[0070] The concave portion 50 of the corrugated corner plate 10 of the embodiments of the present application has a severe material deformation, but the intersections of the curved surfaces are all smooth transitions, so the overall shape of the corrugated corner plate 10 is smooth, which greatly improves the surface quality of the component; the smooth connection and transition between the planar surfaces, the precise fixed included angle between the planar surfaces, and the stability and processing feasibility of the component are increased; and the corrugated corner plate 10 provides a stable performance, strong environmental adaptability and novel appearance for the liquefied natural gas storage tank on land and on ships.
[0071] The embodiments of the present application also provide a liquefied gas storage tank, which comprises the corrugated corner plate 10 of any of the above embodiments. Through the cooperation of the corrugated corner plate 10 with the corrugated plate and other components, a tank body for storing liquefied gas is assembled.
[0072] The liquefied gas storage tank can be used to store, for example, liquid hydrogen, liquefied natural gas, etc.
[0073] The above description is intended to be illustrative and not restrictive, and those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, replacements and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present disclosure. Moreover, the above examples (or one or more aspects thereof) can be used in combination with each other, and these embodiments can be combined with each other in various combinations or arrangements.
