Description

<p><strong>The project determined specific performance metrics and discrete technology development goals with which to gage proposed investments in ground propellant systems operations at SSC.  Historical center studies/investigations were examined and surveyed on hydrogen and helium conservation and recovery. Additionally, a base analytic model of the Liquid Hydrogen (LH2) propellant tank at SSC’s E1 test facility was developed and documented using Thermal Desktop</strong>®/<strong>FlowCAD</strong>®<strong>.</strong><strong> <em>FloCAD</em></strong>®<strong> is a </strong><em>Thermal Desktop</em>®<strong> module that allows a user to develop and integrate both fluid and </strong><em>thermal</em><strong> systems within a CAD based environment.</strong></p>
