VORRICHTUNG UND VERFAHREN ZUM SCHUTZ EINES KRYOGENEN BEHÄLTERS UND SOLCH EINE VORRICHTUNG UMFASSENDER BEHÄLTER

摘要

Method for protecting a cryogenic tank, the tank comprising two concentric casings between them delimiting an inter-wall space in which a so-called low pressure obtains, the method involving: a step of detecting an impact on the tank and/or an increase in pressure within the inter-wall space, characterized in that it involves a step of generating a stream of inert gas within the inter-wall space only if an impact on the tank of a determined intensity and/or a determined increase in pressure at the inter-wall space is/are detected.
