“Despite the effectiveness of multi-layer insulation systems, previous reports suggest that the addition of a vapor-cooled shield (VCS) will further reduce boil-off losses [34,44].”

“Therefore, the BOH must be vented to maintain the pressure of the tank, otherwise, the warmer stratified column of LH2 can potentially cause cavitation and damage the LH2 pump [44,64].”

“Therefore, the warmer LH2 rises to the surface, causing the temperature of the upper layers to be higher than that of the bulk liquid [44].”

“LH2 transport at lower pressures (near atmospheric) is a way to mitigate boil-off formation due to flashing, though at the expense of storing a smaller volume of LH2 [44,65].”

“Additionally, transport of LH2 from high-pressure (between 0.24 and 0.27 MPa) to low-pressure Dewars (0.12 MPa) is another issue that can generate BOH [44].”

In the citing paper
“This substantial reduction in heat loss is determined by the heat exchange between the low-temperature BOH and the incoming ambient heat ( qroom in Figure 4c), allowing for efficient use of the low-temperature sensible heat of the BOH prior to its reliquefaction or venting, as shown in Figure 4c [34,44,63].”

“The reason is the quick vaporization, known as the flashing phenomenon, occurring over the transfer of LH2 from a tank to another with a difference of pressure.”

“A possible solution to sloshing is the addition of cross baffles inside the tank to mitigate the impact forces during acceleration and prevent LH2 movement [34,44].”

In the citing paper
“LH2 tanks are generally of three types: i) double-jacketed tanks with liquid nitrogen on the outer jacket, ii) super-insulated tanks with reflective powder or multi-layer insulation (MLI), and iii) vapor-cooled shielded (VCS) tanks employing super-insulation [34,44] as graphically described in Figure 4.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
