Definitions
- the object of the present invention is a device, which placed downstream of the pressure regulator in a liquefied petroleum gas or natural gas supply facility, improves the efficiency of fuel consumption in the installation, by recovering the losses and removal of impurities, through a process of filtering, and stabilizing the gas flow through a rearrangement of the molecules thereof.
- liquefied petroleum gases which are present in natural gas which is used as fuel in domestic, commercial and industrial environments.
- the liquefied petroleum gases are a mixture of butane and propane, methane being the main component of natural gas, which represents between 70% and 90% of its composition. Both can be supplied for consumption in either fixed or portable containers, in the case of fixed containers these are filled by tank trucks and in the case of portable containers the filling is done in industrial plants and its supply to the end user is performed by changing the empty container to a full one.
- the installation of both natural gas and liquefied petroleum gases is similar and includes the storage container, a pressure regulator that reduces the pressure of the fuel inside the container and controls the outgoing flow, the transport pipes that lead the gas to the devices that consume said fuel and from which one can mention the boilers for domestic hot water or heating, the kitchens with gas burners or even refrigerators that use it as a source of energy.
- the performance of these facilities depends on the flow and supply pressure and the percentage of impurities contained in natural gas or liquefied petroleum gases.
- the pressure and the flow of supply are reduced by the loss of load produced by the pipes and accessories of the installation, such as stopcocks.
- the gas supplied has a series of impurities, such as other hydrocarbons, sulfur, water and other substances, which in combustion produce highly polluting emissions or reduce their performance.
- the proposed invention solves the drawbacks described in the preceding paragraphs by means of a device that is easy to install and maintain, which has a low manufacturing cost, improves combustion efficiency and reduces pollutant emissions.
- the gas-saving device for installations of liquefied petroleum gases or natural gas object of the present invention, is of the type of devices that are installed downstream of the pressure regulator and upstream of the apparatus consuming the liquefied petroleum gases or natural gas, such as, among others, boilers, stoves, refrigerators, etc.
- the gas saving device comprises the following elements:
- a first three-way T-shaped inlet fitting which has a central gas inlet path and two lateral gas outlets, whose central inlet path is connected to the pipe coming from the pressure regulator;
- the gas passes through an activated carbon filter through which it is possible to remove all the impurities that the gas brings. - Then the gas passes through a copper spiral that causes a centrifuge through which we achieve the rearrangement of the molecules of the same.
- Figure 1 Sectional elevation of a gas saver device scheme
- Figure 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the gas saving device
- the gas-saving device shown in Figure 1 is connected downstream to an inlet pipe of natural gas or liquefied petroleum gases.
- the gas enters through the central inlet route (2) to the first three-way T-shaped fitting (1) and its flow is divided by leaving the two lateral outlets (3) towards the lateral inlets (6) of the second three-way T-shaped fitting (5) through the flexible or rigid pipes (4).
- the two gas flows from the first three-way T-shaped fitting (1) are joined at the central outlet of the second fitting (7) increasing the gas pressure.
- the gas passes to the steam trap (8) where the impurities that also contain, at the entrance of said steam trap, the gas passes through an activated carbon filter (9), improving the retention of particles and impurities, making the gas practically pure.
- the gas passes through a spinning copper spiral (10), where the rearrangement of the gas molecules is achieved, achieving the stabilization of the flow in the installation and improving its circulation. And after this step, the gas is directed towards the gas consuming appliances, through the flow regulator (1 1) that unifies the gas flow to the consumption requirements.
- the connections between the different elements of the invention and the supply installation are hermetically connected by means of their corresponding fittings and accessories, such as gaskets, senators, to ensure tightness. of the installation and therefore prevent gas leaks that can lead to dangerous explosions.
- the gas-saving device proposed in the present invention increases the pressure and the flow rate of the gas supply to comply with the specifications of the appliances consuming said gas, eliminates the impurities it contains and eliminates the problem of freezing due to insufficient vaporization of the gas. gas, so that combustion produces a lower amount of emissions and polluting particles, and also makes it more efficient.
- Another of the multiple advantages of the invention is that its installation does not require modifications to the general installation already made, but only its connection to the inlet pipe of the gas supply.
