Vapor Bubble Growth in Liquid Methane in a Microgravity Environment
repressurization can then introduce the required subcooling in the bulk liquid. Depressurization maneuvers will introduce a superheat in the bulk liquid, that was previously at the saturation temperature of [...] Niklas Weber Department of Fluid Mechanics - University of Bremen, Center of Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM) Spacecraft using cryogenic fuels are currently in development to extend the [...] the transfer of thermal energy into the tank from the environment or introduce a subcooling into the bulk liquid to allow for transfer, venting maneuvers are a possible operation. These maneuvers transfer
