Reliquefaction Technology for LNG Carrier

open access: yesJournal of The Japan Institute of Marine Engineering, 2005
Unlike all cargo ships, liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers have continued to use steam turbine propulsion plant despite more efficient diesel engine being available. This is because the gas that naturally evaporates from the cargo (called boil-off) is used as fuel for the steam turbines, and until recently there was no other use for it.

A hybrid Eulerian-Largrangian multiphase-thermal flow simulation of evaporative spray cooling in LNG cargo tanks

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
The safe loading of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) into Cargo Containment Systems (CCS) requires an efficient precooling process to prevent thermal shock. This study develops a hybrid Eulerian-Largrangian multiphase-thermal model to simulate the LNG spray ...

Induced abortion, miscarriage, and the risk of breast cancer—A registry‐based study from Finland

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
The history of induced abortion or miscarriage is not associated with an increased risk of either pre‐ or postmenopausal breast cancer. Abstract Introduction The potential effect of induced abortion and miscarriage on the risk of breast cancer has remained debated and has been a persistent source of misinformation. Many previous studies have been small

Energy Saving of LNG Carriers

open access: yesJournal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1993
In tankers and bulkers, energy savings made remarkable progress after the oil crisis by means of size enlargement, speed reduction, propeller rpm reduction or switching the main propulsion plant from steam turbine to diesel engine. However, in LNG carriers, which are high-technology and high-price ships, there are many commercial requirements, and size
