Abstract

The LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) cabin is a key component in the maritime transport of -163 LNG. The cryo-insulation performance of cabin directly affects the security of LNG transport greatly. Based on a 10000m3 LNG ship, two structural schemes of the LNG cabin are certain, which include their materials, supports and parameters. One is two single cylinder with 5000 m3, the other is a vertical cylinder with 10000 m3. With the safety requirements of cryopreservation of -163 LNG, it calculates the heat leakage of two schemes. Lastly, the temperature field distributions of two types of LNG cabins with full load are simulated by 3d mathematic models by finite element software.
