Fluid supply and storage device, vehicle and method including such a device
A liquefied fuel cryogenic tank has an inner jacket delimiting a fluid storage volume and an outer jacket disposed around the inner jacket with a vacuum thermal insulation gap therebetween. A withdrawal circuit has an assembly of one or more valves and a withdrawal line that has a first heating heat exchanger located outside the inner jacket and a second heating heat exchanger located inside the inner jacket. Fluid flows through the withdrawal line via the first heat exchanger and then the second heat exchanger or via the first heat exchanger without entering the second heat exchanger.
PROCESS TO CAPTURE AND STORE METHANE AND NATURAL GAS FROM PRODUCING FACILITIES USING SOLID SORBENTS
A process for capturing and storing natural gas from a natural gas production facility includes flowing a natural gas stream through a first natural gas flow path extending from a wellhead to a sales gas pipeline. In response to receiving an indication of a process upset in the sales gas pipeline, at least some of the natural gas stream is diverted from the first natural gas flow path to a second natural gas flow path leading to a storage system having a storage vessel with one or more adsorbent beds such that the natural gas stream diverted to the second natural gas flow path is adsorbed by the one or more adsorbent beds and stored in the storage system.
METHOD FOR DELIVERING LIQUID HYDROGEN
The invention relates to a method for delivering liquid hydrogen to at least one target tank, in a system comprising the target tank, at least one source of liquid hydrogen such as a liquefier, and at least one intermediate tank intended to be replenished by the source and intended to deliver liquid hydrogen to the target tank, the method comprising the following steps of determining an initial state vector relating to an initial state of the system; determining initial performance data, using a performance estimation model and the initial state vector; determining configuration data of the target tank, using a configuration estimation model and the initial performance data; configuring the target tank, using the configuration data, so as to allow the target tank to reach a preset thermodynamic state for the delivery of liquid hydrogen by the intermediate tank.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR FLOW BALANCING
Various embodiments of the present technology may provide a vessel coupled to a first reaction chamber and a second reaction chamber via a first gas line and second gas line, respectively. Each gas line may comprise a variable feature, wherein each flexible feature is configured to change the flow dynamics of a gas flowing through the gas lines.
