temperature drop in one hour in a LNG tank

temperature drop in one hour in a LNG tank

(OP)
Hi,

I am working on calculating the gas rate formation in a tank into which LNG is being filled. I want to calculate the heat going into the liquid LNG at -163 from the LNG vapor existing at a high temperature initially, say +20 degrees, in one hour. For this purpose, I am focusing on calculating the temperature of the cooled down vapor from +20 degrees to some temperature in 1 hour and will then calculate the heat it has given out to the liquid LNG. How do I arrive at what will this final temperature of the vapor be at the end of one hour, assuming the liquid LNG is at saturated state and whatever heat it absorbs is used in evaporating into vapor. We can neglect the effect of the fresh evaporated vapor for the time-being.

Any insights are welcome. Thank you.
