Modeling the thermal mechanical behavior of a 300 K vacuum vessel that is cooled by liquid hydrogen in film boiling

This report discusses the results from the rupture of a thin window that is part of a 20-liter liquid hydrogen vessel. This rupture will spill liquid hydrogen onto the walls and bottom of a 300 K cylindrical vacuum vessel. The spilled hydrogen goes into film boiling, which removes the thermal energy...
