LiveJournal Brains: Liquid VS Gaseous Hydrogen...

[seawasp]

Anyone out there have pointers to a good reference on the physical parameters of the two states, assuming near-same temperatures and pressures (as you'd find in a tank that had some liquid H2 in it with gaseous H2 above)? I'm interested in physical, electromagnetic, etc., parameters and any differences. Some I can find easily (density, for instance), others not quite so much. I know METALLIC hydrogen has some drastically different properties but I don't know if that's the case for liquid VS gas.

It definitely can. NASA has very large tanks of LH which have a gas-filled void space at the top depending on how much of the LH has been used, or boiled off (which it is always doing).

There are certainly tables in the Journals, the problem is finding them if you are not familiar with them and do not have a subscription.

I'd think the Seawasp would need to be pretty fortunate for there to be a single person studying and publishing on all of this. It strikes me as something that a lot of different people would have parts of what he is after.
