Description
It is a pretty well-known fact that space manufacturers and design engineers spend countless hours testing critical components in their launch vehicle systems such as cryogenic applications where leakage rate remains one of the most challenging and dangerous elements. If the leakage rate becomes too high, this can cause catastrophic failure. This is the reason rocket sealing solutions, especially those used in tanks and feedlines, must meet very stringent specifications. Aside from leakage rate, it is important to note that cryogenic systems are subject to other performance stressing factors that must also be considered in order to secure a well-balanced solution.
