[N2O thermal equilibrium]
Very interesting.. you are the first person other than myself to acknowledge
this issue as serious.
I have struggled with N2O temperature striations over and over and over again.
Almost always, my goal is heating the N2O, not cooling it. I have played with a
few possibilities:
-A collapsible rain barrel filled with ice for the supply tank.
-Paint the rocket or static tank black to get help from the sun.
-A magnetic object inside the tank, moved by an external magnet. (like a chem
lab magnetic stirrer on steroids)
-Agitator in the tank... but my machining abilities aren’t good enough for
dynamic seals, etc.
Ken, do you have a practical solution for small amounts of Nitrous? (20-50lbs)
