摘要:
A nozzle apparatus for producing aerosol from a substance includes a delivery line having an inlet for receiving the substance at a first pressure. A nozzle is connected to the delivery line for receiving the substance from the delivery line. The nozzle has at least one exit opening which allows passing of the substance therethrough for expanding the substance from the first pressure to a second pressure which is lower than the first pressure for solidifying the substance and producing aerosol. Condensation preventing means is provided for preventing condensation from forming on the delivery line and/or on the nozzle.

An apparatus and method for efficiently metering and transferring a cryogenic liquid, such as liquefied natural gas, from a storage vessel to, for example, a vehicle fuel tank. The apparatus incorporates a programmable controller, a motor-driven pump and a network of conduits with motor-operated valves and liquid sensors for effecting a priming of the pump with liquid free of vapor and a cool-down of the flow passages prior to a transfer operation for ensuring that a vapor-free liquid is delivered. A pair of flow meters, one for liquid and the other for returned vapor, allows a reliable determination of the amount of liquid delivered to--and remaining in--a receiving vessel. The apparatus employs a delivery nozzle with quick-disconnect valved fittings and a delivery nozzle incorporating features which allow it to be handled by an operator without the use of heavy gloves. The method of transferring a cryogenic liquid employs an operating sequence with programmed time delays for ensuring that the liquid pump is properly primed and that the transfer apparatus is cooled down before liquid transfer begins.

A liquid cryogen is supplied, preferably by means of a reservoir, to a dispensing tube so that the liquid cryogen tends to flow from the dispensing tube. A heating coil wrapped around the dispensing tube heats the dispensing tube so that the liquid cryogen undergoes nucleate boiling within the dispensing tube to form a vapor block, and thereby at least impede the liquid cryogen from flowing from the dispensing tube. Flow is reestablished within the dispensing tube by terminating the heating of the dispensing tube, e.g. by turning off electrical power supplied to the heating coil. The heating of the dispensing tube can be sufficient to stop the flow of liquid cryogen. Additionally, the dispensing tube can be cyclically heated by a timing circuit connected to the heating coil. Such cyclical heating is used to throttle the flow of the liquid cryogen from the dispensing tube.

An integrated module with a heated reservoir to vaporize liquid for semiconductor processes with liquid sources is presented. Shut-off valves and a proportioning pressure valve for controlling the flow of the vapor from the reservoir are mounted on the module for simple conduction heating of the valves. A capacitance manometer also mounted to the module also has its own heating elements. Condensation of the vapor is avoided and consistence performance and reliability is obtained.

A vacuum insulated storage vessel holds a quantity of LNG for delivery to a pressure building tank. The pressure building tank maintains a natural gas head over the LNG. The pressure in the pressure building tank is lowered using liquid nitrogen (LN.sub.2) to condense the natural gas head and is raised by vaporizing the LNG. A valve system connects the supply of LNG in the pressure building tank to the fuel tank of the vehicle being supplied to allow either LNG or natural gas to be delivered to the vehicle tank and allows natural gas in the tank to be vented back to the fueling station. The fueling station of the invention includes suitable controls for controlling the pressure and temperature of the LNG delivered to the vehicle, the pressure and temperature in the fueling station itself and the pressure and temperature in the vehicle fuel tank.

In a fuel gas supply equipment with an abnormal offensive odor suppressing filter, there is provided a gas supply passage from a gas outlet of a gas container containing LP gas such as propane gas to a gas inlet of a gas burner. The gas supply passage is provided with a pressure regulating means and a filter mounting portion disposed on the upstream side of the pressure regulating means. A cotton-like filter is inserted into the filter mounting portion. The gas inlet of the filter mounting portion and the gas outlet thereof are intercommunicated through the filter.

To improve a processing system for liquid hydrogen comprising a storage t and a supply unit arranged outside of and connected with the storage tank via a suction line, the supply unit comprising a feed pump which communicates on its pressure side with a motor feed line, such that the feed pump is constantly kept at operating temperature, it is suggested that the supply unit comprise a cool-stage casing completely surrounding the feed pump, the casing having hydrogen flowing through it which exits from the feed pump on the pressure side.

A cryostat comprising a cryogenic vessel for storing a cryogen therein, a port pipe disposed at a portion of the vessel for holding one end of a supply pipe for supplying the cryogen to the vessel thereby allowing the cryogen to flow into the vessel while the very low temperature liquid cryogen is being supplied from the exterior to the vessel, and a cryogen supply pipe disposed in the vessel so as to be spaced apart from the port pipe, further the cryogen supply pipe having a receiving portion for receiving the cryogen from the supply pipe during the supply of the cryogen.
摘要:
A process and apparatus for bringing CO.sub.2 from a storage tank wherein it is stored at a medium pressure and below 0.degree. C. (e.g. -20.degree. C. and 20 bars pressure) to a high pressure such as 80-130 bars, without utilizing any pump operating below 0.degree. C. The build-up of ice on such a pump is thus avoided. To do this, liquid from the tank is caused to completely fill by gravity an intermediate vessel. Then the vessel is heated to about ambient temperature; and while maintaining such temperature (e.g. by means of resistor 16), the liquid in the vessel is subcooled by compression in FIG. 1 or by cooling water in FIG. 2, and conveyed to the inlet of the high pressure pump.
