3. Vacuum insulated evaporator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_insulated_evaporator

   A vacuum insulated evaporator (VIE) is a form of pressure vessel that allows the bulk storage of cryogenic liquids including oxygen, nitrogen and argon for industrial processes and medical applications. [1] The purpose of the vacuum insulation is to prevent heat transfer between the inner shell, which holds the liquid, and surrounding ...

4. Pipe insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_insulation

   The application of thermal pipe insulation introduces thermal resistance and reduces the heat flow. Thicknesses of thermal pipe insulation used for saving energy vary, but as a general rule, pipes operating at more-extreme temperatures exhibit a greater heat flow and larger thicknesses are applied due to the greater potential savings. [3]

5. Oxygen firebreak - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_firebreak

   A fire in an oxygen tube approaching an oxygen firebreak. An oxygen firebreak, also known as a fire stop valve or fire safety valve, is a thermal fuse designed to extinguish a fire in the delivery tube being used by a patient on oxygen therapy and stop the flow of oxygen if the tube is accidentally ignited.

6. Oxygen transmission rate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_transmission_rate

   Oxygen transmission rate (OTR) is the measurement of the amount of oxygen gas that passes through a substance over a given period. It is mostly carried out on non-porous materials, where the mode of transport is diffusion, but there are a growing number of applications where the transmission rate also depends on flow through apertures of some description.

7. Solid oxygen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_oxygen

   Solid oxygen forms at normal atmospheric pressure at a temperature below 54.36 K (−218.79 °C, −361.82 °F). Solid oxygen O 2 , like liquid oxygen , is a clear substance with a light sky-blue color caused by absorption in the red part of the visible light spectrum.
