ABSTRACT:
An improved accumulator particularly adapted for use in controlling the pressure of a stream of fluid in its liquid phase utilizing the fluid in its gaseous phase. The accumulator is characterized by a shell defining a pressure chamber having an entry throat for a liquid and adapted to be connected in contiguous relation with a selected conduit having a stream of fluid flowing through the conduit in its liquid phase. A pressure and volume stabilization tube, including an array of pressure-relief perforations is projected into the chamber with the perforations disposed adjacent to the entry throat for accommodating a discharge of the fluid, in either gaseous or liquid phases, while a gas inlet and liquid to gas conversion system is provided for the chamber and connected with a source of the fluid for continuously pressurizing the chamber for controlling the pressure of the stream of liquid.
