Some LNG ships have a Reliquefaction plant onboard to reliquify 💧 the natural boil off NBOG and return it to the cargo tanks instead of burn it 🔥 in their engines.

The principles of heat transfer, evaporation and condensation are applied in refrigeration systems. The below figure 👇 shows the operating cycle of simple shipboard refrigeration cycle on a fully refrigerated LPG carrier. While we will learn the basics of refrigeration on an LPG system, this will help build your understanding 📈for #LNG reliquefaction systems.

In a single stage compression reliquefaction cycle the boil-off vapours from the cargo tank are drawn off by the compressor and compressed. This compression process increases 📈 the pressure and temperature of the vapour, allowing it to be condensed against seawater in the condenser. The condensed liquid 💧is then flashed back to the tank via float expansion valve or a level control. The liquid/vapour mixture that is returned to the cargo tank is normally distributed by a spray rail to maximise the cooling effect within the tank.
