Study of cryogenic container thermodynamics during propellant transfer

Study of thermodynamic phenomena occurring during transfer of cryogenic liquids from dewar to receiver tank reveals that the basic cause of tank implosion is evaporation rate of droplets entering the tank in the early transfer phase. Analyses of the thermodynamics involved and implosion prevention techniques are included.
