Abstract

See full text

A double walled gas valve unit controls the gaseous fuel flow within a vessel gas system. The gas valve unit may include a housing providing an outer wall, a fuel gas inlet, a fuel gas outlet, and an inert gas inlet, and a fuel line fluidly connected to the fuel gas inlet and the fuel gas outlet and extending within the housing, thereby forming an inner wall of the double walled gas valve unit. The fuel line may include a flow control valve and a block valve, a flushing line, and a flushing valve system. The flushing line is fluidly connected to the inert gas inlet. The flushing line is also fluidly connected via the flushing valve system to a storage side access point of the fuel line and to an engine side access point of the fuel line. The storage side access point is fluidly positioned between the fuel gas inlet and the block valve. The engine side access point is fluidly positioned between the block valve and the fuel gas outlet.
