Patent EP-1308667-A3 (EP)
Inventor: DRUBE THOMAS K
IPC: F17C5/00
Filed: 2002-10-31
Abstract: A system for transferring and conditioning a cryogenic liquid includes a replenishing tank containing a supply of cryogenic liquid, a bulk tank and a pump positioned there between. The pump causes a stream of the cryogenic liquid to flow from the replenishing tank to the bulk storage tank. A heat exchanger and parallel by-pass line are positioned between the pump and bulk storage tank. A flow control valve diverts a portion of the stream to the heat exchanger so that it is warmed and rejoined with the remaining cryogenic liquid flowing through the flow control valve. The warmed stream then flows to the bulk storage tank. The flow control valve is adjusted based upon pressures within the bulk storage tank via a pressure line in communication with the head space of the bulk storage tank and a pneumatic controller or a pressure sensor in the bulk tank head space and a programmable logic controller.

rotary valve located between a suction pressure zone and the
introducing passages. An opening of each of the introducing
passages has an advanced area a part of that is inclined
relative to an axial direction and a circumferential direction

passages, which communicates with the high pressure
compression chamber after the discharge stroke ends, to a low
pressure introducing passage, which communicates with the low
pressure compression chamber. When a high pressure opening of
the residual gas bypass passage starts to be connected with
the opening of one of the introducing passages, an advanced
area of the high pressure opening of the residual gas bypass
passage extends along the advanced area of the opening of the
