Experts in the field contribute detailed discussions of the fundamentals of refrigeration, liquefaction, storage and handling of cryogenic fluids in these two volumes. Emphasis is placed on helium, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and liquified natural gas (LNG). New and updated information resulting from the great expansion of cryogenic technology and its applications is presented. Theories for the safe use and handling of cryogens begin this volume. Liquefaction equipment and refrigeration techniques are described. Transfer systems, storage and transport of cryogenic fluids are also examined.
