Storage and Transfer Systems

Since heat transfer through these insulations can occur by several different mechanisms, the apparent thermal conductivity of an insulation that incorporates all of these heat-transfer possibilities offers the best means of comparing these difference types. Table III provides a listing of some accepted k values for popular insulations used in cryogenic storage and transfer systems. 

The difficulties encountered with the use of multilayer insulation for complex structural storage and transfer systems can be minimized by the use of evacuated powder insulation. This substitution in insulation materials, however, incurs a 10-fold decrease in overall thermal effectiveness of the insulation system. Nevertheless, in applications where this is not a serious factor and investment cost is a major factor, even unevacuated powder insulation with still a lower thermal effectiveness may be the proper choice of insulating material. Such is the case for large LNG storage facilities.

A standard liquid storage and transfer system is composed of a double wall storage vessel with either metallic or synthetic flexible transport tubing, a pressure build-up coil, fill and vent valves and necessary pressure control elements.
