摘要:
This present invention relates to a preparation of gaseous fuel (natural gas for example) for its further transfer under pressure to fuel tank of a vehicle 22. This object is achieved by a method for compressing gas by alternate transfer of gas into two vertically arranged compressing vessels 1 and 2, its compression and forcing into high-pressure vessels by filling the compressing vessels 1 and 2 with working fluid 30 under pressure by means of a hydraulic drive 5. A novelty of this method lies in that, each cycle of gas 29 compressing and its forcing out of the compressing vessels 1 and 2 is performed until these vessels are fully filled with the working fluid 30 contained in the compressing vessels 1 and 2 and alternately forced out of one compressing vessel into the other in response to a signal sent by fluid-level sensor 4.

In order to provide improved efficiency, e.g. in terms of how to operate and maintain a liquid natural gas (LNG) transfer system, while also improving the environmental friendliness of the transfer operation, there is disclosed a method and system of transferring liquid natural gas from a first container 104 to a second container 106 via a pump station 108. The first container 104 is positioned close to the pump station 108 by a truck 110, and the second container 106 is positioned close to the pump station 108 by a ship 112. Repeated transfer of LNG is provided using first and second dry couplings 304, 308 and, after transfer is complete, disconnecting the second dry coupling 308 from the second container and providing a flow of liquid natural gas back into the first container utilising an overpressure in the insulated pipes or hoses 202, 208 and in pipes of the pump station relatively to the pressure in the first container and by replacing the first container 104 with a filled first container when the first container is empty.

A method and apparatus for compressing gases and supplying fuel to a gaseous fuel consuming device, such as a gaseous fueled vehicle or the like. One embodiment includes a gas compressor for compressing the gaseous fuel to an array of tanks having predetermined initial set points which are increasing for tanks in the array. One embodiment provides a selecting valve having first and second families of ports wherein the valve can be operated to select a plurality of ports from the first family to be fluidly connected with a plurality of ports with the second family, and such fluid connections can be changed by operation of the valve.

The invention relates to an operating method for a cryopressure tank in which cryogenic hydrogen for supplying a motor vehicle fuel cell can be stored under supercritical pressure at 13 bar or more. In order to compensate the pressure drop resulting from the removal of hydrogen from the cryopressure tank, either a heat-transfer agent is supplied to a heat exchanger provided in the cryopressure tank via a regulating valve over a period of time which significantly exceeds the cycle times of a conventional cycle valve or the heat-transfer agent is not supplied to said heat exchanger. Depending on the fill level of the cryopressure tank, the regulating valve is actuated with respect to a desired temperature or a desired pressure of the hydrogen in the cryopressure tank. As long as there is a risk of liquefaction of the residual hydrogen in the cryopressure tank, as is the case when the temperature falls below the critical temperature of 33 K if the pressure drops below the critical pressure of approximately 13 bar, during the removal of cryogenic hydrogen from the cryopressure tank, the temperature is adjusted such that it does not drop below the critical temperature of 33 Kelvin. If the fill state in the cryopressure tank drops further, the pressure in the cryopressure tank is adjusted when there is no longer a risk of liquefaction such that the pressure does not drop below a minimum pressure value which the hydrogen that is removed from the cryopressure tank must have in order to be usable in the consumer without restricting the function thereof.

The present invention is directed to a system for the delivery of LNG, comprising a main storage for storing supplied LNG, a pressure build-up device for increasing the pressure of the LNG, an intermediate storage for storing the LNG with increased pressure, and a dispenser for dispensing LNG at a pre-conditioned state to a refuelling vehicle, wherein the pressure build-up device and the intermediate storage for storing the LNG with increased pressure are arranged in a pressure build-up loop, and further comprising one or more dispenser storages for storing and/or further pre-conditioning the LNG. Furthermore, the invention is directed to a method for the delivery of LNG, using such system.

摘要:
Systems and methods for performing a stepwise depressurization of a high-pressure fluid (liquid) filled chamber are shown and described. At least two valves are controllably opened and closed in a sequence to release a predetermined amount of pressure from the high-pressure chamber. At least some of the pressurized fluid released from the high-pressure chamber is stored, at least temporarily, in a second pressure chamber. The second pressure chamber is located between the two controllable valves. A control system controls the valves in response to a signal from at least one pressure sensor coupled to the high-pressure chamber. Additional components can be included in the system such as a pressure intensifier and a high-pressure pump, both coupled to the high-pressure chamber, and at least one other pressure sensor to improve the accuracy of the measured pressure in the high-pressure chamber.

The invention concerns a method for filling gas on gas cylinders with pressures greater than 50 bar in an automatic gas cylinder filling facility, the method including at least the following steps: a gas cylinder is placed in a filler carousel, the gas cylinder is positioned by means of a geometric positioning system, a filler adapter is fitted, and the gas cylinder is filled, whereby it is achieved that the filling can be effected fully automatically without an operator, thereby eliminating ergonomic problems and safety issues by having any persons close to the gas filling of cylinder with pressures up to e.g. 300 bar.
