Nitrogen flow boiling and chilldown experiments in microgravity using pulse flow and low-thermally conductive coatings

Abstract The enabling of in-space cryogenic engines and cryogenic fuel depots for future manned and robotic space exploration missions begins with technology development of advanced cryogenic fluid management systems upstream in the propellant feed system. Before single-phase liquid can flow to the...
