Liquefied natural gas (LNG) vaporizers to re-gasify liquid
natural gas for import terminals worldwide. Custom formed ASME certified
stainless steel tube bundles, all welded into a header manifold system
and packaged into a common housing with separately mounted but integral,
skid mounted external process gas circuits, controls and instrumentation.
Pressure/Temperature Swing Adsorption system generally part
of a larger cryogenic air separation plant. Installed upstream of
the cryogenic distillation column, the adsorption cycle is part of
the overall process used for removal of impurities from the inlet
air stream and typically feature large bore carbon steel piping up
to 30" diameter all mounted onto common structural steel bases
with shop fabricated interconnecting spools for field routing between
each free standing vessel containing the proprietary adsorption bed
materials.
High temperature (500°C design) skidded combination H20/N20
purifier and adsorption system consisting of ASME certified vessels
constructed of type INCOLOY 825 materials including all process lines
and control valves. Full scope included installation of all instrument
tubing, electrical interconnect wiring to a common control panel along
with high temperature ceramic insulation.
 CVIP,
along with the collaborative design efforts of MIT, LLNL and LBNL,
shop assembled the HCX (High Current Experiment) cryostat for
the heavy ion fusion program (HIF) consisting of two superconducting
quadrupole cells contained within a shop fabricated 4K inner cold
mass container, LN2 thermal shielding and a low-emissivity radiation
shield, all were packaged within the lower portion of the cryostat
housing. This lower, packaged quadrupole cell assembly was then connected
to the separate and upper portion of the overall cryostat assembly
called the VCL (Vapor Cool Lead). This upper assembly was the liquid
helium vessel or reservoir for supplying and maintaining cryogen cooling
within the lower cells. - read

 Cryogenic
refrigeration system for an in-grid 350 meter long, high temperature
superconducting cable demonstration project partially funded by the
Department of Energy. System included a thermosyphon ASME certified
vessel, two liquid pumps and various valves and controls all packaged
and contained within a very compact, skid mounted, super insulated
vacuum jacketed cold box along with a separate combination vacuum
jacketed filter/flow metering skid. CVIP also provided on-site field
installation. read

 A
15 Tesla pulsed magnet cooled with liquid nitrogen and/or helium gas
used as a component of a mercury jet target development for eventual
use in the Muon Collider. System consisted of an inner pressure vessel
built around a three segmented copper coil package, complete with
intermediate cooling shield, multi layer super insulation system all
contained within an outer vacuum insulated vessel. - read

Matrix Fault Current Limiter (MFCL) Cryostat Assembly addressing
the fault current over-duty problems at transmission voltage levels
of 138kV or higher all within existing utility networks. Unit consisted
of a stainless steel inner ASME certified pressure vessel complete
with various copper gasket sealed flanges, bi-metal transition joints
and full body flanged top head for complete internal access. Pressure
vessel was mounted inside a separate vacuum jacketed outer vessel
complete with full flanged top plate and clear viewing ports. -

 CVIP
shop fabricated and vacuum leak tested complete spool sections plus
provided
on-site field welding assistance covering the complete vacuum
jacketed piping distribution system used for supplying cryogenic cooling
to a total of 1,740 superconducting magnets connected end-to-end within
a 2.4 mile continuous underground tunnel network, all at liquid helium
temperatures. A single, common 20" diameter outer vacuum jacket
was constructed with a liquid nitrogen cooled inner aluminum shield
surrounding four separate inner carrier lines all used for moving
gaseous and liquid helium from each helium source to each magnet use
point.
