Analysis of cryogenic propellant behaviour in microgravity and low thrust environments.

Author(s) : FISHER M. F., SCHMIDT G. R., MARTIN J. J.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The paper describes a recent validation in which model predictions were compared with drop tower test data. Although the tests were originally conducted in the 1960s to support design and performance assessments of the Saturn S-IVB stage liquid hydrogen tank, the data have proven useful for verifying the accuracy of the model.
