Increase of Refueling Systems Efficiency of Rocket Launching Sites by Utilization of Cold Energy of Cryogen

[摘要] An important point in the use of cryogenic substances is their storage and transportation taking into account their phase state. Cryogenic substances can be used in liquid, gaseous and solid state. In all cases, it is possible to utilize the cold energy potential of the cryogen, either to reject heat from the cooling object during its regasification, or to obtain mechanical work and / or electricity. Therefore, the actual task is to improve the efficiency of rocket launching sites by using cold energy of cryogenic substances.
