Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a cold energy recovery system installed in a ship which includes a liquefied gas storage device configured to store a liquid liquefied gas, and a cold energy recovery method by the cold energy recovery system.
  • a land LNG (liquefied natural gas) terminal receives and stores liquefied natural gas transported by an LNG carrier. Then, when liquefied natural gas is supplied to a supply destination such as city gas or a thermal power plant, liquefied natural gas is warmed with seawater or the like to be returned to a gas. When liquefied natural gas is vaporized, cryogenic power generation may be performed in which cold energy is recovered as electric power instead of being discarded in seawater (for example, Patent Document 1).
  • a ship which is equipped with an LNG storage facility for storing liquefied natural gas or a regasification facility for regasifying liquefied natural gas, may be moored on sea, and the liquefied natural gas regasifyied by the ship may be sent to a supply destination on shore or a power gauge (floating power plant) on sea via a pipeline.
  • a cryogenic power generation facility Since the ship is less expandable than an onshore facility, in order to install a cryogenic power generation facility, it is important to reduce the size of the cryogenic power generation system, especially a heat exchanger.
  • a heat exchanger As the small heat exchanger, a printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE), a plate heat exchanger, or the like can be given as an example.
  • WO 2010/007535 A1 relates to the conversion of liquefied natural gas and describes a method of and an apparatus for converting liquefied natural gas (LNG) to a superheated fluid through vaporisation and superheating of the LNG.
  • An LNG facility comprises a thermally-insulated storage tank having a submerged LNG pump. The facility is located aboard a seagoing vessel.
  • the apparatus includes a first main heat exchanger in a series with a second main heat exchanger.
  • the first main heat exchanger is heated by a condensing first heat exchange fluid (propane) flowing in a first heat exchange circuit including a first supplementary heat exchanger for revaporising the first heat exchange fluid and the second main heat exchanger by a condensing second heat exchange fluid flowing in a second heat exchange circuit including a second heat exchanger for vaporising the second heat exchange fluid.
  • the first supplementary heat exchanger may be split and comprise two parallel heat exchange units.
  • the first heat exchange circuit has a turbo-expander intermediate the heat exchange vapour exit from the supplementary heat exchanger and the heat exchanger vapour inlet to the main heat exchanger.
  • GB 2 062 111 A concerns recovering energy from liquefied natural gas.
  • Water is used to warm and vaporise liquefied natural gas (LNG) by means of an intermediate heat exchange medium such as propane, which is circulated round a closed circuit wherein it undergoes liquefaction and vaporisation alternately by heat exchange with the LNG and water in heat exchangers, the vaporised intermediate heat exchange medium from the heat exchanger is expanded through a turbine to drive an electricity generator.
  • LNG liquefied natural gas
  • EP 0 009 387 A1 concerns a process for obtaining energy during the regasification of liquefied gases.
  • the liquefied gas is heated in a cryogenic heat exchanger by indirect heat exchange with a working fluid circulating in a closed cycle and is thereafter further heated by passing it in indirect heat exchange with air to be introduced into a gas turbine.
  • the working fluid passes through a recuperator in which it is heated by indirect heat exchange with expanded working fluid from an expansion turbine.
  • KR 101 792 460 B1 relates to an LNG vaporization method of a vaporizer for an LNG carrier, which vaporizes LNG stored in a storage tank of an LNG carrier and supplies the LNG to an engine.
  • the LNG carrier uses a heat pump system, wherein a heat medium for vaporizing LNG in a vapor state in the vaporizer is heat-exchanged and heated by the heat pump system using seawater or air as a heat source.
  • JP 2017/190829 A refers to a system that integrates a gas supply facility and a cooling facility.
  • the gas supply facility supplies gas obtained by vaporizing low-temperature liquefied gas
  • the cooling facility includes a cooling part, a gas cold recovery part for recovering vaporized cold of the low-temperature liquefied gas, and a cooling cold supply part for supplying the recovered cold to the cooling part.
  • the gas cold recovery part includes a first heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the low-temperature liquefied gas and first brine to vaporize the low-temperature liquefied gas and recovering the vaporized cold in the first brine, a gas cold transportation line for circulating the first brine, and a second heat exchanger disposed on the gas cold transportation line for transmitting the cold from the first brine to the cooling cold supply part.
  • WO 2018/100 486 A1 concerns a heat pump with prime mover in cryogenic applications and refrigerating fluids.
  • a liquefied gas regasification line comprises a vaporization section of said gas, a prime mover, a first heat exchanger operating on the circuit of a first intermediate fluid and a heat pump, said heat pump comprising an evaporator and a condenser, said heat pump operating with a refrigerating fluid which in said evaporator acquires heat from a second intermediate fluid and which in said condenser surrenders heat to a third intermediate fluid, said third intermediate fluid operating a further heat exchanger with which it surrenders heat to the liquefied gas.
  • the prime mover supplies mechanical or electrical energy to said heat pump and thermal energy to said first heat exchanger.
  • Patent Document 1 JP 2017- 180 323 A
  • a temperature of another heat exchange object is lower than a solidifying point of one heat exchange object (for example, seawater)
  • the one heat exchange object is solidified in heat exchange in the heat exchanger, and the solidified heat exchange object may adhere to a surface of the exchanger and block the heat exchanger.
  • a small heat exchanger has a higher risk of blockage of the heat exchanger than a large heat exchanger (for example, a shell tube type heat exchanger), and thus has a problem in reliability.
  • an object of at least one embodiment of the present disclosure is to provide a cold energy recovery system capable of suppressing blockage of the heat exchanger due to solidification of a heat medium, and capable of improving reliability of the cold energy recovery system when the small heat exchanger is used.

    einen zweiten Wärmetauscher (52), der stromabwärts vom ersten Wärmetauscher (51) in der Arbeitsfluid-Zirkulationsleitung (4) angeordnet ist, wobei der zweite Wärmetauscher (52) so konfiguriert ist, dass er Wärme zwischen dem durch die Arbeitsfluid-Zirkulationsleitung (4) fließenden Arbeitsfluid und dem durch die Zwischenwärmemedium-Zirkulationsleitung (6) fließenden Zwischenwärmemedium austauscht;
    einen dritten Wärmetauscher (53), der so konfiguriert ist, dass er Wärme zwischen dem durch die Zwischenwärmemedium-Zirkulationsleitung (6) fließenden Zwischenwärmemedium und dem von außerhalb des Kälteenergierückgewinnungssystems (2) zugeführten Heizwasser austauscht;
    eine Flüssiggas-Versorgungsleitung (3), die so konfiguriert ist, dass sie das Flüssiggas aus der Flüssiggas-Speichervorrichtung (11) schickt; und
    einen Hilfswärmetauscher (81), der stromabwärts des ersten Wärmetauschers (51) an der Flüssiggasversorgungsleitung (3) angeordnet ist, wobei der Hilfswärmetauscher (81) so konfiguriert ist, dass er Wärme zwischen dem durch die Flüssiggasversorgungsleitung (3) fließenden Flüssiggas und einem im Kälteenergierückgewinnungssystem (2) zirkulierenden Heizmedium austauscht,
    wobei das Heizmedium aus dem durch den dritten Wärmetauscher (53) erhitzten Zwischenwärmemedium besteht, das durch die Zwischenwärmemedium-Zirkulationsleitung (6) fließt, und
    wobei das Verfahren zur Rückgewinnung von Kälteenergie Folgendes umfasst:
    einen ersten Wärmeaustauschschritt (S101) zum Durchführen eines Wärmeaustauschs zwischen dem verflüssigten Gas und dem Arbeitsfluid durch den ersten Wärmetauscher (51);
    einen zweiten Wärmeaustauschschritt (S102), bei dem durch den zweiten Wärmetauscher (52) ein Wärmeaustausch zwischen dem Zwischenwärmemedium und dem Arbeitsfluid durchgeführt wird, das im ersten Wärmeaustauschschritt (S101) Wärme mit dem verflüssigten Gas ausgetauscht hat; und
    einen dritten Wärmeaustauschschritt (S103), bei dem durch den dritten Wärmetauscher (53) ein Wärmeaustausch zwischen dem Heizwasser und dem Zwischenwärmemedium durchgeführt wird, das im zweiten Wärmeaustauschschritt (S102) Wärme mit dem Arbeitsfluid ausgetauscht hat.
