Not pursuing cryocooling
Option 1: No cryogenic cooler and using the orbit to stratify the container automatically
Option 2: Have a Heating/Cooling System to purposefully introduce stratification.
- Viable if we realize other components might overheat (Onboard computer & thermal)
- Heating/Cooling Options:
- Fluid Loop System
- Cryogenic
- Thermoelectric
Things to do:
- Investigate which heating/cooling system
- Choose optimal liquid to replace cryogenics with
- Choose sensors + optimal placements to test for stratification for each test
Research:
- Wireless Temperature Sensor to Float within Liquid
