Determination of the resistance to cryogenic spillage of insulation materials - Part 3: Jet release (ISO 20088-3:2018)

This part of ISO 20088 describes a method for determining the resistance to cryogenic spray on Cryogenic Spillage Protection (CSP) systems. It is applicable where CSP systems are installed on carbon steel and will be in contact with cryogenic fluids. Liquid jet release is potentially formed at high pressure LNG handling section in LNG liquefaction unit, e.g., around 40 - 60 bar operating pressure. Due to high velocity discharge, it may cause severe condition for cryogenic protection coating by large momentum with extreme cryogenic temperature. Liquid nitrogen is used as the cryogenic medium since it has a lower boiling point than liquid natural gas or liquid oxygen and it is not flammable. Additionally, it can be safely used for experiment.

Bestimmung der Beständigkeit von Isoliermaterialien bei kryogenem Auslaufen - Teil 3: Freisetzung von Hochdruckstrahlen (ISO 20088-3:2018)

Dieses Dokument beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Widerstands von CSP-Systemen (en: cryogenic spill protection, CSP; de: Schutz gegen kryogenen Auslauf) gegen kryogene Strahlen als Folge einer Freisetzung unter Druck, die nicht zu Eintauchbedingungen führt. Es ist anwendbar, wenn CSP-Systeme auf Kohlenstoffstahl installiert sind und mit kryogenen Flüssigkeiten in Kontakt kommen.
Ein kryogener Strahl kann durch Freisetzung aus Prozessanlagen, die unter Druck stehen, entstehen (z. B. nutzen einige Verflüssigungsprozesse einen Betriebsdruck von 40 bis 60 bar). Aufgrund der hohen Druckentlastung kann der Schutz gegen kryogenen Auslauf durch den großen Impuls in Kombination mit der extremen kryogenen Temperatur beeinträchtigt werden.
Obwohl in der Prüfung flüssiger Stickstoff als kryogene Flüssigkeit verwendet wird, gilt die in diesem Dokument beschriebene Prüfung als repräsentativ für eine Freisetzung von Flüssigerdgas durch eine Öffnung mit einer Breite von 20 mm oder kleiner bei einer Druckentlastung von 6 barg oder weniger basierend auf simulierten Parametern 1 m von der Auslaufstelle entfernt. Das Vertrauen für die Repräsentativität dieser Prüfung basiert auf einem Vergleich zwischen dem erwarteten dynamischen Druck der simulierten Freisetzung und dem dynamischen Druck der Freisetzung in Übereinstimmung mit diesem Dokument.
Bei dieser Prüfung ist es nicht praktikabel, den gesamten Bereich der unter realen Anlagenbedingungen auftretenden kryogenen Prozessbedingungen abzudecken; insbesondere deckt die Prüfung keine Freisetzungen von kryogenen Hochdruckstrahlen ab, die in Kühlkreisläufen und in LNG-Strömen unmittelbar nach der Verflüssigung vorzufinden sind.
Als kryogenes Medium wird flüssiger Stickstoff genutzt, da das Material bei den in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Drücken sicher gehandhabt werden kann. Die Prüfung wird bei einem nominalen Druck von 8 barg durchgeführt.
ISO 20088 1 deckt Szenarien einer kryogenen Freisetzung ab, die zu Poolbildungsbedingungen bei Stahlteilen, die gegen kryogenen Auslauf als Folge einer Freisetzung von Strahlen oder einer Niederdruckfreisetzung von Flüssigerdgas oder flüssigem Stickstoff geschützt sind, führen können. ISO 20088 2 deckt Expositionsbedingungen der Dampfphase als Folge einer Strahlfreisetzung oder einer Niederdruckfreisetzung von Flüssigerdgas oder flüssigem Stickstoff ab.

Détermination de la résistance des matériaux d'isolation thermique suite à un refroidissement cryogénique - Partie 3: Émission sous forme de jet (ISO 20088-3:2018)

Ce document décrit une méthode pour déterminer la résistance à l'émission d'un jet cryogénique sur les systèmes de protection contre le jet cryogénique (CSP) qui ne résulte pas dans des conditions d'immersion. Elle s'applique quand des systèmes CSP sont installés sur de l'acier au carbone et sont appelés à être en contact avec des fluides cryogéniques.
Un jet cryogénique peut être émis par des équipements de procédés fonctionnant sous haute pression (par exemple certains procédés de liquéfaction utilisent  une pression de service comprise entre 40 bar et 60 bar). Du fait de la haute pression d'émission, la protection contre le jet cryogénique peut être compromise en raison d'une grande quantité de mouvement à une température cryogénique extrême.
Bien que l'essai utilise de l'azote liquide comme liquide cryogénique, l'essai décrit dans ce document est représentatif d'une émission de GNL, par un orifice de 20 mm ou moins, à une pression d'émission de 6 bar ou moins, sur la base de paramètres simulés à 1 m de le point d'émission. La confiance dans le fait que cet essai est représentatif repose sur une comparaison de la pression dynamique attendue de l'émission simulée par rapport à la pression dynamique provenant des émissions, conformément au présent document.
Dans cet essai, il n'est pas pratique de couvrir l'ensemble des conditions de processus cryogéniques rencontrées dans des conditions réelles d'usine; en particulier, l'essai ne couvre pas les émissions de jets cryogéniques à haute pression qui pourraient se trouver dans les circuits de réfrigération et dans les flux de GNL immédiatement après la liquéfaction.
L'azote liquide est utilisé comme milieu cryogénique en raison de sa capacité à manipuler le matériau en toute sécurité aux pressions décrites dans ce document. La condition de test est exécutée à une pression nominale de 8 bars.
L'ISO 20088‑1 traite des scénarios d'émission cryogéniques pouvant conduire à des conditions de flaque pour les aciers protégés par une protection cryogénique contre les émissions résultant d'une émission par jet ou d'un dégagement à basse pression de GNL ou d'azote liquide. L'ISO 20088‑2 couvre les conditions d'exposition à la phase vapeur résultant d'une émission de jet ou d'un dégagement de GNL ou d'azote liquide à basse pression.

Ugotavljanje obstojnosti izolacijskih materialov pri puščanju v kriogenem območju - 3. del: Visokotlačni curek (ISO 20088-3:2018)

Ta del standarda ISO 20088 opisuje metodo za ugotavljanje obstojnosti na kriogeno pršenje v sistemih za zaščito pred puščanjem v kriogenem območju (CSP). Uporablja se, kadar so sistemi za zaščito pred puščanjem v kriogenem območju nameščeni na ogljikovo jeklo in bodo v stiku s kriogenimi tekočinami. Visokotlačni curek tekočine potencialno nastane v območju za rokovanje z utekočinjenim zemeljskim plinom (LNG) v enoti za utekočinjanje zemeljskega plina, npr. okoli 40–60 barov delovnega tlaka. Zaradi visoke hitrosti izpusta lahko povzroči težke pogoje za kriogeno zaščitno prevleko z velikim momentom in ekstremno kriogeno temperaturo. Kot kriogeni medij se uporablja tekoči dušik, saj ima nižje vrelišče kot tekoči zemeljski plin ali tekoči kisik in ni vnetljiv. Prav tako ga je mogoče varno uporabiti za preizkus.

Introduction
The test is intended to be, as far as practicable, representative of a potential accidental pressurized
release of cryogenic liquid natural gas (LNG) manufactured in industrial plants. The test includes:
a) an initial enhanced cooling effect due to the momentum driven liquid contact with the substrate;
b) a localized force that may be expected in a cryogenic jet release.
This test is designed to give an indication of how cryogenic spill protection systems will perform when
subjected to a sudden cryogenic jet release.
The dimensions of the test specimen might be smaller than typical items of structure and plant. The
liquid cryogenic jet mass flow rates can be substantially less than that which might occur in a credible
event. However, the thermal and mechanical loads imparted to the cryogenic spill protection systems
from the cryogenic jet release, described in this document, are representative of a cryogenic LNG jet
release with hole size 20 mm or less and release pressure less than or equal to 6 barg.

Determination of the resistance to cryogenic spillage of
insulation materials —
Part 3:
Jet release
CAUTION — The attention of all persons concerned with managing and carrying out cryogenic
spill tests is drawn to the fact that liquid nitrogen testing can be hazardous and that there is a
danger of condensing liquid oxygen (fire/explosion), receiving a ‘cold burn’ and/or the possibility
that harmful gases (risk of anoxia) can be evolved during the test. Mechanical and operational
hazards can also arise during the construction of the test elements or structures, their testing
and disposal of test residues. An assessment of all potential hazards and risks to health shall
be made and safety precautions identified and provided. Appropriate training and Personal
Protection Equipment shall be given to relevant personnel. The test laboratory is responsible for
conducting an appropriate risk assessment in order to consider the impact of liquid and gaseous
nitrogen exposure to equipment, personnel and the environment.
1 Scope
This document describes a method for determining the resistance of a cryogenic spill protection
(CSP) system to a cryogenic jet as a result of a pressurized release which does not result in immersion
conditions. It is applicable where CSP systems are installed on carbon steel and will be in contact with
cryogenic fluids.
A cryogenic jet can be formed upon release from process equipment operating at pressure (e.g. some
liquefaction processes utilize 40 to 60 bar operating pressure). Due to high pressure discharge, the
cryogenic spillage protection can be compromised by the large momentum combined with extreme
cryogenic temperature.
Although the test uses liquid nitrogen as the cryogenic liquid, the test described in this document
is representative of a release of LNG, through a 20 mm orifice or less, at a release pressure of 6 barg
or less, based upon simulated parameters 1 m from the release point. Confidence in this test being
representative is based upon a comparison of the expected dynamic pressure of the simulated release
in comparison with dynamic pressure from releases in accordance with this document.
It is not practical in this test to cover the whole range of cryogenic process conditions found in real
plant conditions; in particular the test does not cover high pressure cryogenic jet releases that might be
found in refrigeration circuits and in LNG streams immediately post-liquefaction.
Liquid nitrogen is used as the cryogenic medium due to the ability to safely handle the material at the
pressures described in this document. The test condition is run at nominally 8 barg pressure.
ISO 20088-1 covers cryogenic release scenarios which can lead to pooling conditions for steel work
protected by cryogenic spill protection as a result of a jet release or low pressure release of LNG or
liquid nitrogen. ISO 20088-2 covers vapour phase exposure conditions as a result of a jet release or low
pressure release of LNG or liquid nitrogen.

4 Test configurations
4.1 General
The configuration under which the test is conducted is where the specimen is placed horizontally at
height on suitable supports. The test piece is impacted at the mid-point by a horizontal liquid nitrogen
cryogenic jet release. Due to safety concerns, it is proposed that the test should only be performed
outside, unless there are sufficient safeguards implemented to mitigate the confined space and liquid
nitrogen safety risks.
5 Construction of the test apparatus and substrates
5.1 General
The key items required for the test are:
— a nozzle and cryogenic liquid feeder assembly where the temperature and pressure of the liquid can
be measured at the point the liquid enters the reducing diameter pipe to the nozzle;
— liquid nitrogen of sufficient volume for the test duration supplied from a tanker capable of offload
via a pump to generate the required stable pressure at the nozzle;
— a carbon steel specimen protected with CSP;

— thermocouples to determine the temperature as a function of time in the steel specimen.
5.2 Material
The steel grade used for the test is to be recorded. Where welded plate girders are used, construction is
to be representative of the as-built structure. All dimensions are in millimetres and, unless otherwise
stated, the following tolerances shall be used:
— whole number ± 1,0 mm;
— decimal to point ,0 ± 0,4 mm;
— decimal to point ,00 ± 0,02 mm;
— angles ± 0’ 30”;
— radius ± 0,4 mm.
Test specimens shall include as a minimum a beam of designation 406 mm × 178 mm × 60 kg/m
or tubular specimen of wall thickness 6,3 mm and outer diameter between 270 mm and 350 mm
(including the cryogenic spill protection material). All test specimens are to be 2,5 m in length unless
otherwise agreed by the sponsor.
5.3 Release nozzle
5.3.1 Nozzle construction
Liquid nitrogen is released towards the specimen from a nozzle as shown in Figure 1. The nozzle shall
be of length (150 ± 1,0) mm, constructed from 10 mm nominal diameter stainless steel pipe with
outside diameter of 20 mm to 30 mm, -0,5/+0,5 mm giving a wall thickness between 5 mm and 10 mm.
The nozzle shall not be tapered and the end shall be clean cut with no chamfering of pipe walls. The
nozzle is fed with liquid nitrogen from a 52,5 mm diameter schedule 40 stainless steel pipe gradually
reducing in internal diameter to 10 mm over a length of 200 mm to 250 mm.

5.3.2 Nozzle position
The nozzle shall be positioned horizontally in front of the test specimen, focussed at the centre point
such that the cryogenic jet release impacts normal to the web of the beam [dry film thickness (DFT)
measurement point 7] or normal to a tangent drawn where the radius of the tube intersects the centre
point of the tubular (DFT measurement point 3) as shown in Figure 4. The tip of the nozzle shall be
located (500 ± 10) mm from the protected surface of the test specimen as shown in Figure 2.
5.4 Specimen support
A generic support shall be used to hold and support the test specimen. The support shall be fabricated
from a material resistant to cryogenic temperatures. It is the responsibility of the test laboratory to
ensure proper design of such an item and to ensure that pool formation of cryogenic liquid cannot occur
and come in contact with the sample (for tubular specimens, no liquid should be allowed to enter the
inside of the specimen). An example is given in Figure 2 with more detailed figures showing the overall
test configuration in Annex B.

The application/installation methodology, including any necessary surface preparation, reinforcement,
thickness, top-coats, field joints, etc., is to be determined by the sponsor and/or specimen owner and
details provided for inclusion within the test report.
The thickness for sprayed applied systems shall be measured as close as practicable to the positions
identified in Figure 4, avoiding readings directly over thermocouples wires which may give false
readings. For preformed systems, thicknesses shall be measured for the system components at
locations on the specimen corresponding to those shown in Figure 4. If there are clear signs of thinning

Introduction
The test is intended to be, as far as practicable, representative of a potential accidental pressurized
release of cryogenic liquid natural gas (LNG) manufactured in industrial plants. The test includes:
a) an initial enhanced cooling effect due to the momentum driven liquid contact with the substrate;
b) a localized force that may be expected in a cryogenic jet release.
This test is designed to give an indication of how cryogenic spill protection systems will perform when
subjected to a sudden cryogenic jet release.
The dimensions of the test specimen might be smaller than typical items of structure and plant. The
liquid cryogenic jet mass flow rates can be substantially less than that which might occur in a credible
event. However, the thermal and mechanical loads imparted to the cryogenic spill protection systems
from the cryogenic jet release, described in this document, are representative of a cryogenic LNG jet
release with hole size 20 mm or less and release pressure less than or equal to 6 barg.

Determination of the resistance to cryogenic spillage of
insulation materials —
Part 3:
Jet release
CAUTION — The attention of all persons concerned with managing and carrying out cryogenic
spill tests is drawn to the fact that liquid nitrogen testing can be hazardous and that there is a
danger of condensing liquid oxygen (fire/explosion), receiving a ‘cold burn’ and/or the possibility
that harmful gases (risk of anoxia) can be evolved during the test. Mechanical and operational
hazards can also arise during the construction of the test elements or structures, their testing
and disposal of test residues. An assessment of all potential hazards and risks to health shall
be made and safety precautions identified and provided. Appropriate training and Personal
Protection Equipment shall be given to relevant personnel. The test laboratory is responsible for
conducting an appropriate risk assessment in order to consider the impact of liquid and gaseous
nitrogen exposure to equipment, personnel and the environment.
1 Scope
This document describes a method for determining the resistance of a cryogenic spill protection
(CSP) system to a cryogenic jet as a result of a pressurized release which does not result in immersion
conditions. It is applicable where CSP systems are installed on carbon steel and will be in contact with
cryogenic fluids.
A cryogenic jet can be formed upon release from process equipment operating at pressure (e.g. some
liquefaction processes utilize 40 to 60 bar operating pressure). Due to high pressure discharge, the
cryogenic spillage protection can be compromised by the large momentum combined with extreme
cryogenic temperature.
Although the test uses liquid nitrogen as the cryogenic liquid, the test described in this document
is representative of a release of LNG, through a 20 mm orifice or less, at a release pressure of 6 barg
or less, based upon simulated parameters 1 m from the release point. Confidence in this test being
representative is based upon a comparison of the expected dynamic pressure of the simulated release
in comparison with dynamic pressure from releases in accordance with this document.
It is not practical in this test to cover the whole range of cryogenic process conditions found in real
plant conditions; in particular the test does not cover high pressure cryogenic jet releases that might be
found in refrigeration circuits and in LNG streams immediately post-liquefaction.
Liquid nitrogen is used as the cryogenic medium due to the ability to safely handle the material at the
pressures described in this document. The test condition is run at nominally 8 barg pressure.
ISO 20088-1 covers cryogenic release scenarios which can lead to pooling conditions for steel work
protected by cryogenic spill protection as a result of a jet release or low pressure release of LNG or
liquid nitrogen. ISO 20088-2 covers vapour phase exposure conditions as a result of a jet release or low
pressure release of LNG or liquid nitrogen.

4 Test configurations
4.1 General
The configuration under which the test is conducted is where the specimen is placed horizontally at
height on suitable supports. The test piece is impacted at the mid-point by a horizontal liquid nitrogen
cryogenic jet release. Due to safety concerns, it is proposed that the test should only be performed
outside, unless there are sufficient safeguards implemented to mitigate the confined space and liquid
nitrogen safety risks.
5 Construction of the test apparatus and substrates
5.1 General
The key items required for the test are:
— a nozzle and cryogenic liquid feeder assembly where the temperature and pressure of the liquid can
be measured at the point the liquid enters the reducing diameter pipe to the nozzle;
— liquid nitrogen of sufficient volume for the test duration supplied from a tanker capable of offload
via a pump to generate the required stable pressure at the nozzle;
— a carbon steel specimen protected with CSP;

— thermocouples to determine the temperature as a function of time in the steel specimen.
5.2 Material
The steel grade used for the test is to be recorded. Where welded plate girders are used, construction is
to be representative of the as-built structure. All dimensions are in millimetres and, unless otherwise
stated, the following tolerances shall be used:
— whole number ± 1,0 mm;
— decimal to point ,0 ± 0,4 mm;
— decimal to point ,00 ± 0,02 mm;
— angles ± 0’ 30”;
— radius ± 0,4 mm.
Test specimens shall include as a minimum a beam of designation 406 mm × 178 mm × 60 kg/m
or tubular specimen of wall thickness 6,3 mm and outer diameter between 270 mm and 350 mm
(including the cryogenic spill protection material). All test specimens are to be 2,5 m in length unless
otherwise agreed by the sponsor.
5.3 Release nozzle
5.3.1 Nozzle construction
Liquid nitrogen is released towards the specimen from a nozzle as shown in Figure 1. The nozzle shall
be of length (150 ± 1,0) mm, constructed from 10 mm nominal diameter stainless steel pipe with
outside diameter of 20 mm to 30 mm, -0,5/+0,5 mm giving a wall thickness between 5 mm and 10 mm.
The nozzle shall not be tapered and the end shall be clean cut with no chamfering of pipe walls. The
nozzle is fed with liquid nitrogen from a 52,5 mm diameter schedule 40 stainless steel pipe gradually
reducing in internal diameter to 10 mm over a length of 200 mm to 250 mm.

5.3.2 Nozzle position
The nozzle shall be positioned horizontally in front of the test specimen, focussed at the centre point
such that the cryogenic jet release impacts normal to the web of the beam [dry film thickness (DFT)
measurement point 7] or normal to a tangent drawn where the radius of the tube intersects the centre
point of the tubular (DFT measurement point 3) as shown in Figure 4. The tip of the nozzle shall be
located (500 ± 10) mm from the protected surface of the test specimen as shown in Figure 2.
5.4 Specimen support
A generic support shall be used to hold and support the test specimen. The support shall be fabricated
from a material resistant to cryogenic temperatures. It is the responsibility of the test laboratory to
ensure proper design of such an item and to ensure that pool formation of cryogenic liquid cannot occur
and come in contact with the sample (for tubular specimens, no liquid should be allowed to enter the
inside of the specimen). An example is given in Figure 2 with more detailed figures showing the overall
test configuration in Annex B.

thickness, top-coats, field joints, etc., is to be determined by the sponsor and/or specimen owner and
details provided for inclusion within the test report.
The thickness for sprayed applied systems shall be measured as close as practicable to the positions
identified in Figure 4, avoiding readings directly over thermocouples wires which may give false
readings. For preformed systems, thicknesses shall be measured for the system components at
locations on the specimen corresponding to those shown in Figure 4. If there are clear signs of thinning
or thickening at positions away from those indicated for measurement, additional measurements
should be taken and reported.

9 Test procedure
A liquid nitrogen jet is released through a 10 mm orifice at a steady pressure between (8 ± 0,8) barg
and a liquid temperature less than -170 °C (measured at the point liquid exits the schedule 40 pipe as
described in Figure 1) impinging a test object placed 500 mm from the cryogenic jet release.
It is the responsibility of the test laboratory to ensure test parameters are maintained throughout the
duration of the test.
The test procedure shall include the following.
a) The test set-up should ensure that only the intended cryogenic jet release impinges the steel
specimen, protected with CSP, from the start of the test (e.g. provide a deflector plate or nozzle
until the liquid jet stabilizes with the required test parameters).
b) Pressure and temperature readings at the nozzle are to be taken throughout the test. The
temperature of the protected steel substrate is to be monitored throughout the test t
