  • Publication number: 20230067883
    Abstract: The present disclosure designs a mixed refrigerant hydrogen liquefaction device including a normal-pressure precooling cold box, a vacuum cryogenic cold box, a hydrogen refrigeration cycle compressor unit, a nitrogen cycle refrigeration unit and a mixed refrigerant cycle refrigeration unit. The precooling section uses a mixed refrigerant process and a nitrogen cycle refrigeration process as the main sources of cold energy. The refrigerant refrigeration cycle is the main source of cold energy in the temperature range of 303K to 113K. The liquid nitrogen refrigeration cycle is the main source of cold energy in the temperature range of 130K to 80K. The hydrogen refrigeration cycle provides cold energy for the temperature range of 80K to 20K. Most of the BOG generated in a storage part is recovered by an ejector. A plate-fin heat exchanger is filled with ortho-para hydrogen conversion catalysts to realize the para hydrogen content of liquefied hydrogen ?98%.
