Résumé

Cryogenic vessels have been commonly used for over 40 years for the storage and transportation of industrial and medical gases. The advantage of storing gases in such a form is obvious: in a volume of 1 litre of liquid, about 800 litres of gas can be stored. This represents a clear advantage over the transportation of such gases in compressed form, which is done today at pressures of 200-300 bars (less gas per volume unit) and requires thick walls (and heavy vessels) to resist the high pressure.
