摘要:
A pressure vessel (2) for the storage of fluid has a core (10) made of metal or polymer and is wrapped either completely or partially from outside with a high strength fibers (21, 22) for reinforcement wherein one of the reinforcing fibers is a metal wire (21) of a single filament or cables of multi filaments having strength from 2000 MPa to 6000 MPa. The wire has a plastic ductility of over 20% in reduction in area (RA) at tensile fracture. The metal wire (21) is made of steel or nickel or titanium or their respective alloys. The core (10) of the vessel (2) is first wrapped with a resin covered ceramic fibers such as carbon, fiberglass and subsequently wrapped with the metal wire (21) with or without other fibers (22). The metal wires (21) can be of different diameters in parallel or cabled forms.

This invention is directed to composite pressure vessels for the storage and transport of natural gas at low pressure using absorbent technology. The pressure vessel comprises a polymeric liner that defines an interior vessel volume, a polymeric composite outer shell that substantially completely encloses the polymeric liner; an absorbent that substantially fills the interior vessel volume; and a port that connects the interior vessel volume with the external environment.
摘要:
An inflator device includes a steel member to at least in part form a pressure vessel and an external composite wrap overlying at least a portion of the metal member. The metal member can be tubular and have an elongated length such as to form a steel inner liner that is incapable of withstanding the pressure generated within the pressure vessel upon actuation of the inflator device without support provided by the composite overwrap.

A gas cylinder for the storage of compressed gas includes a shut-off valve in engagement with a mouth of the cylinder; an external pressure sensor device for sensing pressure in the cylinder, the pressure sensor device being in continuous communication with the interior of the cylinder; a temperature sensor device for sensing temperature of the gas in the cylinder, the temperature sensor device being in thermal communication with the interior of the cylinder; a programmable computing device for calculating information from the temperature and pressure signals concerning the amount of contents in the cylinder; and a display screen operatively associated with the programmable computing device for displaying said information.
摘要:
The object of the invention is a process for the production of a vessel for high pressure gas, particularly helium, for a space launcher or for a satellite with a short lifetime, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: production of an internal skin of a plastic material selected from polyethylene and crystallized polyamide, winding a reinforcement of fibers and resins, providing the obtained vessel with the necessary conduits and control valves.
摘要:
A container for chemically aggressive liquids and gases has an internal lining which has a coating of meshed wire or expanded metal welded to at least a portion of the inner face of the container and a layer of synthetic resin putty applied to said coating.
摘要:
Gas containment vessels are provided that are comprised of an inner corrosion resistant shell made of lower strength steel alloy or aluminum alloy or thermoplastic polymer, and an outer concentric shell constructed of high strength, albeit lower corrosion resistant, metal or fiber-reinforced composite. The fiber can comprise filaments derived from basaltic rocks, the filaments having been immersed in a thermosetting or thermoplastic polymer matrix, and comingled with carbon, glass or aramid fibers such that there is load sharing between the basaltic fibers and carbon, glass or aramid fibers.
