Why Do Gas Carriers Have These Humps?

[@littlekirby6]

I think this was a great explanation for those who aren't already familiar with gas transport and gas partial pressures, great video!

[@ktwei]

Tell us Fergie.

[@Pedritox0953]

Fergie: My hump, my hump, my hump.... Check it out

[@topiasr628]

Those lovely lady lumps...

[@3941602]

good 1

[@papanga1197]

Almost missed the joke

[@scharftalicous]

ROFL

[@dopecarmilla]

Always happy to see a new video!

[@bjjrhino]

Fantastic as always

[@pineapplepolymorphism3315]

If I had to take a guess, its probably to even out the pressure

[@csours]

Lovely LNG Bumps

[@MightySifton]

Are they to carry gas?

[@joãoAlberto-k9x]

Of course, my dear. 🎉.

[@stykytte]

mind blown.

[@hallow2835]

The real reason is that they contain shark milk as an offering so that the megaladon will drink it and spare the ship

[@nyftn]

a sphere is the best shape to handle pressure

[@giantdwarfulf]

99 percent of gas tankers with spherical (type b) tanks are LNG carriers. Fully refrigerated LPG tankers (those able to carry cargo as cold as ethylene) usually have type C (usually cylindrical) or type A (prismatic) tanks. Type C is the most pressure resistant. The normal fully pressurised gas tanker is fitted with type C tanks withstanding a pressure of up to 18 bar. Type A and B both have very low design pressures of 0.7 bar at most.

Wait, wasn't the hump on the other side yesterday? What hump? -Young Frankenstein

[@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat]

Great video

[@darsharjunrao9057]

Great!

[@kittyvlekkie]

Captain, you can't just say that

[@RobertCraft-re5sf]

But why do I have those humps

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

Working on tankers gave me the hump !!😅⚓

[@Ray_of_Light62]

Thank you for the video. Lately, there are many more gas carrier ships sailing around. Greetings, Anthony

[@calex007]

Would not an equal volume of a more carbonaceous hydrocarbon be more energy dense than an equal volume of LNG?

[@Kirmo13]

Wait so how do LNG cars work? I can't imagine they keep the tank ad -82C

[@jamesengland7461]

They're usually CNG cars, with a pressure tank.

[@DTXBrian]

Smaller vehicles are far more likely to be CNG than LNG. LNG is mostly trucks. As fuel is burned from the tanks, the act of withdrawing fuel from the tanks cools the fuel left in the tanks. Combine that with crazy amounts of insulation, and there’s no need for active cooling for trucks in operation.

[@simonabunker]

Wouldn't methane be more likely to be transported as ammonia?

[@clazy8]

You probably mean hydrogen instead of methane.

[@jamesengland7461]

Methane is CH⁴. Ammonia is NH³.

[@simonabunker]

@@clazy8 ah yes - you are correct! My mistake.

[@manwiththeredface7821]

But what she gon' do with all that junk, All that junk inside her trunk?

Ask your parents

[@CollectorVX]

i love your videos but the whistling in the background is incredibly distracting

[@croyfer]

That whisteling-sound in the background is terrible! Please make it go away!

[@LoisTravisis]

If laughter prolonged life, I'd be immortal by now thanks to this video💞

[@DemetriusTerrancece]

My boyfriend laughed so loud that the neighbors came to see what happened. Now they are watching this video too🍓

[@TrueRandomization]

Horrible explanation!
