Estimation of Thin-Film Contribution in Phase Change Calculations Involving Cryogenic Propellants

What is it about?

Future human space missions are inevitably going to be powered by cryogenic propellants. These propellants need to be stored and maintained at really low temperatures for long durations. In this study, models to predict evaporation in these propellant storage systems are evaluated to help address some of the uncertainties associated with them.
