Vapor release from depressurized liquid helium

In addition to liquid losses due to container and transfer tube normal heat
leak, tube and receiving vessel cool down, boil-off in the container resulting
from heat input of the pressurizing gas and saturated vapor equalization,
there is a flash loss from the pressure drop in a transfer line and a loss from
depressurizing a container after making a partial withdrawal.
For best transfer efficiency, the withdrawal should be started and
maintained with as low a pressure as practical. Too low a pressure will
require a longer time to make a transfer and thus permit heat leak in the
transfer system to become excessive. A balance between effects of heat leak
and depressurization generally may be attained by operating in a pressure
range of 2 to 3 psig.
22
Flash loss due to pressure drop through the transfer line may be estimated
by use of Chart 1 Helium Flash Rate. Depressurization loss of liquid in the
container may be estimated by use of Chart 2 Helium Depressurization
Losses.
For example: Assume a helium container is discharging at a constant
pressure of 5 psig. From Chart 1 the flash loss is approximately 13.8%
of the liquid entering the transfer tube. From Chart 2 the loss from
depressurizing the container is approximately 12.5% of the liquid
remaining in the container.

Water ice has a liquid residue while remaining refrigerants are converted to the gas phase. CO2 snow is flashed from liquid CO2 at 314.7 psia storage pressure. Snow
yield is 46% by weight. Liquid carbon dioxide is stored at zero degrees and maintained at zero degrees by a mechanical refrigerator. This permits storage of liquid carbon
dioxide without loss. Dry ice pellets are manufactured by compressing CO2 snow in an extrusion machine. Liquid nitrogen losses are present during storage.

Net Positive Suction Head Requirements for

Cryogenic Pumps
Head to PSI Conversion
More pump problems result from incorrect determination of Net Positive

Suction Head (NPSH) than from any other single cause.
Liquids at any temperature above their freezing have a corresponding vapor
pressure which must be taken into account when planning a pumping system.
NPSH can be defined as the difference between the actual pressure and the
vapor pressure of the liquid at the suction port of the pump. This is also
sometimes referred to as sub-cooling or super pressure.
While sitting idle, the liquid in a storage vessel will gradually absorb heat and
with all the vents closed, will generate pressures that are directly related to the
temperature of the liquid. These pressures are called the saturated vapor
pressures. This saturated condition exists as long as the liquid is at its boiling
point for any given pressure in the vessel. The important point to remember is
that no matter what the tank pressure is, any reduction in pressure will cause the
saturated liquid to boil.
No cryogenic pump can operate on saturated liquid since in order to establish
flow into the pump suction, there must be lower pressure in the pump. This
pressure drop causes the saturated liquid to boil, and the resultant vapors enter
the pump causing it to cavitate and lose prime.
To prevent cavitation, some NPSH must be provided to the pump. The
amount of minimum NPSH varies with size, type and make of pump, and is
generally indicated on the nameplate. The NPSH can be provided by static head,
or elevation of liquid above the pump suction and/or by building an artificial
pressure in the supply tank with a pressure building coil. This artificial pressure
must be maintained throughout the pumping cycle to insure proper and efficient
pump operation.
It is easy to lose, or offset, this artificial pressure or liquid head by warming
the liquid in the suction line to the pump by heat from the atmosphere. It is
possible to have a high super pressure in the storage tank so that the liquid is
highly subcooled and still have saturated liquid at the pump suction. To prevent
this, pump suction lines should be short and well insulated.

Air Pressure Drop In Pipe
Air Pressure Drop In Pipe
For lengths of pipe other than 100 feet, the pressure drop is proportional to the
length. Thus, for 50 feet of pipe, the air pressure drop is approximately one-half
the value given in the table. The pressure drop is also inversely proportional to the
absolute pressure and directly proportional to the absolute temperature.
To determine the pressure drop for inlet or average air pressures other than
100 psi and at temperatures other than 60F, multiply the values given in the table
by the formula:
100 + 14.7
P + 14.7
)(
460 + t
520
P is the inlet or average gauge pressure in pounds per square inch.

t is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.
The flow of compressed air in cubic feet per minute at any pressure is inversely
proportional to the absolute pressure and directly proportional to the absolute
temperature.
To determine the cubic feet per minute of compressed air at any temperature and
pressure other than standard conditions, multiply the value of cubic feet per minute
of free air by the fomula:
14.7
14.7 + P
)(
460 + t

Calculations For Pipe Other Than Schedule 40

To determine the velocity of water, or the pressure drop of water or air, through
pipe other than Schedule 40 use the following formulas:
P
d40 2
da
( )
\] Pa =
va = v40
P40
d40 5
da
( )
a refers to velocity or pressure drop through the desired Schedule pipe.

40 refers to the velocity or pressure drop through Schedule 40 pipe as given
in the table on the facing page.

1. The flows are based on a loss of head due to friction of fluids in given pipe size for fairly smooth pipe and is considered reasonably conservative. (C = 100)
2. For pitched gravity piping, the loss is one (1) foot per hundred feet of pipe.
3. The pressure piping losses are based on a loss of ten (10) feet per hundred feet of pipe. For short runs and few fittings, use next size smaller pipe;
for long runs or many fittings, use a size larger.
4. This chart is designed for rapid sizing of pipe for central coolant systems only. For large complex piping refer to Cameron Hydraulic Data Book.

Chart Your Single Source Supplier

of Cryogenic Equipment
Customer needs are the top priority with us. From handling carts to the largest
cryogenic vessels, we have the accessories to create an efficient system for you.
Dual Relief Valves

With dual relief valves, one
cylinder can be used for both liquid
(low pressure) and gas (medium
pressure) accounts, which
maximizes the flexibility of your
liquid cylinders.
Hospital Reserve Kit

Hospital oxygen applications
require a backup supply of oxygen.
The Chart hospital reserve kit
connects the primary supply (Chart
bulk storage tank) with the back-up
supply. If the primary supply of
oxygen is interrupted, the reserve kit
automatically switches to the backup supply and provides a local and
remote warning.
Handling Carts
Chart provides a variety of
handling carts, roller bases,
and accessories to make the
transportation of liquid
cylinders safe and easy.
Hose
Stainless steel transfer lines that
remain flexible during liquid
transfer can be coupled with a
bronze phase separator.
Lo-Loss Filling System
Muffler
When attached to the vent
connection of the liquid cylinder,
the Chart muffler can reduce the
venting noise during the fill.
58
The Chart lo-loss system reduces

liquid cylinder filling losses
without increasing filling times.
This safe, easy and economical
filling device can be fitted for
manual or automatic
operation. It is available
as single or multiple gas
systems.

M45 Manifold
The M45 Manifold is a convenient, automatic way of increasing the gas
delivery rate to any application. The unique changeover value automatically
switches from the primary bank of cylinders to the secondary bank when
needed. An indicator light shows when this occurs, so replacement cylinders
can be ordered.
The economizer functions of all tanks still work through the M45 Manifold. Tank
pressure and delivery pressure are shown on the manifold, while other features
include:
All stainless steel cabinet can
be wall mounted or used with
the optional floor stand.
Hoses are easily mounted to

the cabinet
Takes up to six liquid cylinders

Stainless steel braid cover is standard on the inner flex and optional for the vacuum
jacket flex.
Chart vacuum insulated pipe utilizes multi-layer super insulation for lowest
BTU loss. When used to replace copper or conventionally insulated lines,
investment payback can be extremely fast.
Custom manufactured sections and flexible piping allow easy system
planning and installation no
special tools are required.
Bayonet couplings provide
positive metal-to-metal
interference fit at cryogenic
temperatures. With these reusable couplings, pipe
sections and components can
be easily assembled or
removed for system
modification or expansion.

Definitions
Absolute Zero The lowest temperature attainable. All molecular activity is
considered to cease. Its value is -459.7F (-273.15C)
Coefficient of Viscosity A measure of the tendency of a fluid to resist shear. The
unit for viscosity is the poise which is defined as the resistance (in dynes per square
centimeter of its surface) to one layer of fluid to the motion of a
parallel layer one centimeter away and with a relative velocity of one cm per second.
Critical Pressure The pressure under which a substance may exist as a gas
in equilibrium with the liquid at the critical temperature.
Critical Temperature The temperature above which a gas cannot be
liquified by pressure alone.
Cryogenics The science which involves very low temperatures, usually
regarded as below -150F.
Density Mass per unit volume.
Dew Point The temperature at which liquid first condenses when a vapor
is cooled.
Dielectric Constant The specific inductive capacitance of a material. It is equal
to the ratio of the capacitances of two condensers of identical size, one using the
particular dielectric, the other using air or a vacuum as the dielectric.
Joule-Thomson Effect The change in temperature resulting from expansion of
a gas or vapor through an orifice or other restriction. In general, a lowering of
temperature or cooling effect is the usual result of such an expansion.
Latent Heat of Fusion The heat required to convert a unit mass of substance
from the solid state to the liquid state at a given pressure (and temperature).
Latent Heat of Sublimation The heat required to convert a unit mass of
substance from the solid state to the gaseous state.
Latent Heat of Vaporization The heat required to convert a unit mass of
substance from the liquid state to the gaseous state at a given pressure (and
temperature).
Liquified Gases Usually applied to the liquid form of substances which under
normal conditions of temperature and pressure are found as gases. Liquid oxygen
is an example.
Molecular Weight The sum of the atomic weights of all the atoms in a molecule.
The atomic weight is the relative weight of the atom, on the basis of carbon isotope
C12.
Normal Boiling Point The temperature at which a liquid boils when under a total
pressure of one atmosphere.
Normal Sublimation Temperature The temperature at which a solid sublimes
under a total pressure of one atmosphere.
Specific Heat The ratio of the heat capacity of a body to the heat capacity of
water at some reference temperature.
96
Definitions & Miscellaneous

Specific Gravity The ratio of the mass of a body to the mass of an equal volume
of air (for gases) at a specified temperature. It is dimensionless. For liquids and
solids, it is the ratio of the mass of a body to the mass of an equal volume of water.
Specific Heat Ratio Ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to the specific
heat at constant volume at a particular temperature.
Specific Volume The volume occupied by one unit weight of a substance.
Superconductivity The phenomenon by which some substances suddenly lose
all electrical resistance when their temperatures are reduced. These transitions
occur at temperatures lower than that of liquid hydrogen.
Thermal Conductivity The property of a material that describes the rate at
which heat will be conducted through a unit area of material for a given driving
force. It is dependent on the material and upon its temperature.
Triple Point The particular condition under which a substance can be present in
any or all phases (gaseous, liquid, or solid).
Vapor Pressure The pressure exerted by a vapor in equilibrium with the liquid
phase of the same substance.
