Recently, reciprocating cryogenic pumps are mainly developed for small-and-mid sized fuel supply systems. Centrifugal type pumps are not actively developed. Most cryogenic submerged pumps are imported. For transportation, cryogenic liquefied natural gas requires the liquid pump technology that can works in extreme evironments. In order to transport liquefied natural gas, it is necessary to apply pump technology. This is the fundamental research for developing the submerged pump technology applicable to the transportation and storage system equipment of cryogenic liquefied system. It tries to secure basic design materials through reverse-engineering in the cryogenic submerged pump development. Regarding materials, STS-304 and STS-431 which are stainless materials widely used in the cryogenic area are applied. Aluminum alloy is applied to impeller and upper manifolder and the pump rotates at the high speed of 6,000rpm.

In this paper, effects of inlet shape on the performance of a submerged cargo pump were numerically studied using a commercial CFD code CFX. The inlet shape, especially the gap between pump and suction well, is an important parameter in a point of view of performances of submerged cargo pump due to its effects on the residual and also hydraulic performance of the pump, respectively. To know the optimized gap, the overall performance degradations were calculated with the gap. In addition to that, the flow field through the gap was investigated to explain the effect of velocity non-uniformity on the performance of the pump impeller.

The head-capacity curves for pumps developed by the pump manufacturer are based on tests of a single pump operating in a semi-infinite basin with no close walls or floors and with no stray currents. Therefore, flow into the pump intake is with no vortices or swirling. However, pump station designers relying on these curves to define the operating conditions for the pump selected sometimes meet the reductions of capacity and efficiency, as well as the increase of vibration and additional noise, which were caused by air-entered flow in the pump station. From this background, the authors are carrying out a systematic study on the flow characteristics of intakes within a sump of pump station model. Multi-intake sump model with anti-submerged vortex device basin is designed and the characteristics of submerged vortex is investigated in the flow field by numerical simulation. In this study, a commercial CFD code is used to predict the vortex generation in the pump station accurately. The analysed results by CFD show that the vortex structure and effect of anti-submerged vortex device are different at each pump intake channel.

The efficiency of the flow mixed pump installed within the bell-mouth in the sump is reduced by the flow characteristics of around intakes. Strong submerged vorticies can be successfully suppressed by installing an AVD(anti-submerged vortex device) on the bottom of pump intake channel just below the bell-mouth. Sump model with AVD device basin is designed and the characteristics of submerged vortex is investigated in the flow field by numerical simulation. In this study, a commercial CFD code is used to predict the efficiency of the pump with the AVD installation in the pump station accurately.

This study represents basic research for the development of submerged pump technology applicable to transfer and storage of a cryogenic liquids. Its purpose is to secure baseline design data by applying reverse engineering to the process of developing a submerged cryogenic pump. The two-stage model included in the ARTICK Series LNG Submerged Pump produced by Vanzetti of Italy was selected for analysis for development of a localized product, and was disassembled for reverse engineering. The pump was disassembled after analyzing its processing/assembly characteristics such as shrinkage of fittings. In addition, the materials used in manufacturing of the main components were analyzed, and the ingredients were confirmed. As a result, a design drawing for each component required for product development was secured via foundational design, and a test product was manufactured by maximizing the application of appropriate domestic technologies.

The purpose of this study is to examine the basic design of a submerged cryogenic pump, which is a two stage impeller pump. We limited this study to the impeller design of the submerged pump. We calculated its velocity triangle based on the impeller blade configuration and, in order to check its natural frequency, we carried out a modal test using a finite element method (FEM) analysis. Basically, modal test results had quite similar to FEM analysis.

최근, LNG는 저렴한 가격과 친환경적 연료 등의 이유로 선박용 대체연료로 각광을 받고 있으며, 그 수요량도 급성장이 예상된다. 그러나, 선박의 LNG 연료공급을 위한 극저온펌프(Cryogenic Pump) 제작과 관련한 국내 기술력은 매우 미흡한 실정으로 핵심 부품의 설계와 제작 기술이 절실한 시점이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 선박용 LNG 공급 시스템용 극저온 잠액식 원심펌프(Cryogenic Submerged Centrifugal Pump)의 단계별 개발절차에 대하여 기술하였다. 그리하여, 각 단계별 특성 및 주요 개발항목을 공학적이고 관리적인 측면에서 접근함으로써 실질적이고 구체적인 개발방법을 제시하는데 연구 목적을 두었다.

In this study, localized development of a submerged cryogenic pump for use in LNG containers is conducted with large-sized commercial vehicles as the target. The submerged pump installed in an LNG storage container is the key module that supplies fuel to the engine through the reciprocating motion of a piston. Research and development on 660-L fuel containers is performed herein. The target is to achieve a mileage of 600 km or more by applying it to major NGV vehicles worldwide. In this manner, the present study aims to verify the operating mechanisms of the major parts of currently advanced products through reverse engineering in the early development process and draw basic design data.
