Howdy, folks, Georges here from PSAS <http://psas.pdx.edu/> at Portland
State University!
I'm wondering if anybody knows anything about creating a diffuser for
the N2 entrance on a LOX tank. We're using the N2 to pressurize our LOX,
and we need a diffuser to make sure we don't end up with pressurized N2
mixing into the LOX and getting pushed into our systems downstream.
Is anybody aware of any research articles or other sources out there
about the possible designs for this sort of thing? Possible
materials/important design points to make sure the thing actually works
as intended? Key hangups to be avoided?
Thank you,
