Abstract: A regasification apparatus includes a closed loop heat transfer fluid circulation assembly, for the storage of the cold energy extracted from fuel during its regasification, and provides: a first tank, for containing at ambient temperature the heat transfer fluid, and an insulated second tank where the latter is kept cold; a fluid/fluid heat exchanger, defining the heating means, in which the fluid, coming out of the first tank, is placed in heat transfer with the cold branch of the pipe and therefore cooled, then stored in the second tank. From the latter departs at least one insulated branch, to supply with cold fluid at least one utility present in the aforementioned vehicle, for example an air/fluid heat exchanger located downstream an intercooler of the engine. By means of a pipe, the heat transfer fluid, heated back to ambient temperature, returns to the first tank.

Abstract: The regasification apparatus (1) is able to supply engines of vehicles with natural gas stored below zero, in liquid form, inside a cryogenic cylinder (H), then heated by heating means (C), placed along a pipe (3) connecting said cryogenic tank (H) with the engine (M). The apparatus (1) comprises a closed loop heat transfer fluid circulation assembly (10), for the storage of the cold energy extracted from the fuel during its regasification, and provides: a first tank (A), for containing at ambient temperature said heat transfer fluid, and an insulated second tank (B) where the latter is kept cold; a fluid/fluid heat exchanger (13), defining said heating means (C), in which said fluid, coming out of the first tank (A), is placed in heat transfer with the cold branch of the pipe (3) and therefore cooled, then stored in said second tank (B).

Abstract: A probe for the measurement of the total pressure or temperature of a two phase wet gas flow is also disclosed. Embodiments provide a stem, a tip on the top of the stem, a cup serving as a shield is formed in the tip, a at least one tube or thermal element positioned within the cup serving as a measuring device for the incoming wet gas flow; at least one hole which passes through at least one wall of the cup; and a pressure changing device configured to accelerate the wet gas flowing around the cup. A method and system for the measurement of the total pressure or temperature of a two phase wet gas flow is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present probes are miniaturized, total pressure and total temperature, probes able to measure in wet gas conditions, two phase flow, inside pipes or compressor. When measuring in wet gas conditions, the probe measures accurately with a defined amount of liquid phase. Differently from standard probes, such probes are able to generate a gas expansion on the external side of the cup. This guarantees the appropriate purging of the liquid fraction of the flow from the cup, letting the total pressure measurement of the gas. The total temperature probe, beside the purging of the liquid collected, has a miniaturized cup in order to protect the measuring element from the direct impact of the liquid droplets. This permits to measure the total temperature of the gas, without influence of the liquid fraction of the flow.
