The LNG fuel system consists of the cylinder (fluid reservoir), vaporizer, line regulator, buffer tank, pressure
building pipeline and other systems.
The LNG cylinder (fluid reservoir) is a cryo-insulation pressure vessel which can be used to multiply fill a gas.
With the double-layer vacuum insulation structure, the reservoir consists of the inside liner, housing, insulating layer,
valves and etc. The natural gas is stored in the low-temperature low-pressure vacuum insulation reservoir with
the form of liquid-state, the inside temperature of the fluid reservoir is generally between -138 and -162,
and the normal operating pressure of the cylinder shall be no more than 1.89MPa.
Vaporizer: The LNG gas shall be vaporized by the vaporizer to the CNG gas after its temperature rises, and
then the CNG gas is supplied to the engine. Much more heat will be absorbed during vaporization. The
vaporizer uses the engine circulating coolant to heat and vaporize the liquefied natural gas (LNG), and thus
make the natural gas meet the engine operating temperature and flowrate requirements.
The main function of the line regulator is to decrease the pressure of natural gas after vaporized by the
vaporizer and lower the pressure down to the set pressure of the pressure stabilizer so as to ensure that the
pressure of gas entering into the engine meets the operating requirement.
The function of the buffer tank is to store a certain amount of gas in the tank, and provide the additional gas
consumption if the higher gas consumption (e.g., high power required) is required while the vaporized gas is
insufficient, which avoids the shortage of gas supply.
For the LNG supply system, the gas supply and pressure will directly affect the engine performance and its
operating reliability.
