Study on ambient and cryogenic grinding was performed to test the novelty of cryogenic grinding and pin point the drawbacks of ambient grinding. Comparative study had shown that ambient grinding need more power (8.92%) and specific energy (14.5%) than cryogenic grinding. Particle size analysis had shown that cryogenic grinding produced coarser particles. Comparative study of energy law constant...

Presentation and discussion of a unique magnetic coupling design that has been developed for cryogenic service in liquefied gases that allows the submerged motor or generator to be isolated from the process fluid in a safe, proven and compact design.

The most important demand in an efficient carbon isotope separation is to keep the cryogenic distillation column parameters at their required set points, despite disturbances or uncertainties. One of the key parameters is the column temperature that has a direct influence on the carbon separation coefficient. The nonlinear model of the separation process considers the top and bottom column temp...

Analytical and experimental studies conducted at the NASA Langley Research Center for investigating integrated cryogenic propellant tank systems for a Reusable Launch Vehicle are described. The cryogenic tanks are investigated as an integrated tank system. An integrated tank system includes the tank wall, cryogenic insulation, Thermal Protection System (TPS) attachment sub-structure, and TPS. A...
