Abstract
A regasification apparatus includes a closed loop heat transfer fluid circulation assembly, for the storage of the cold energy extracted from fuel during its regasification, and provides: a first tank, for containing at ambient temperature the heat transfer fluid, and an insulated second tank where the latter is kept cold; a fluid/fluid heat exchanger, defining the heating means, in which the fluid, coming out of the first tank, is placed in heat transfer with the cold branch of the pipe and therefore cooled, then stored in the second tank. From the latter departs at least one insulated branch, to supply with cold fluid at least one utility present in the aforementioned vehicle, for example an air/fluid heat exchanger located downstream an intercooler of the engine. By means of a pipe, the heat transfer fluid, heated back to ambient temperature, returns to the first tank.
