Expansion ratio
The expansion ratio of a
gaseous form, at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure.[1]
If a sufficient amount of liquid is
pressure relief valves and vent valves are important.[2]
The expansion ratio of
cryogenic from the boiling point
to ambient is:
- nitrogen – 1 to 696
- liquid helium – 1 to 745
- argon – 1 to 842
- liquid hydrogen – 1 to 850
- liquid oxygen – 1 to 860
- neon – Neon has the highest expansion ratio with 1 to 1445.[3][4]
