Device for the reduction in thermal stresses due to the use of compensators which consists of flexible, highly flexible material

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for low-tension compensation of the thermally induced changes in length of adjacent barrier layers in a tank for storage and transport of cryogenic media. The compensation takes place in that in the between or on the insulating layers (5) barrier layers (2) located at distances interruptions (2a) are arranged, which, with a highly flexible material, the compensator (1) can be closed, which in turn in a gas-tight manner with the barrier layers (2) is connected.
