Basic Study on Explosive Evaporation of Cryogenic Fluids by Contacting Normal Temperature Fluids in the Pressure Vessel

The mixture of the extreme low temperature fluid and the normal temperature fluid becomes the cause which causes pressure vessel and piping system crush due to explosive boiling and rapid freezing. In recent years in Japan, the demand of cryogenic fluids like a LH2, LNG is increasing because of the advance of fuel cell device technology, hydrogen of engine, and stream of consciousness for environmental agreement. On the other hand, as for fisheries as well, the use of a source of energy that environment load is small has been being a pressing need. Therefore, we carried out the experiments related to promotion of evaporating cryogenic fluids, in the contact directly of the water and liquid nitrogen.
