METHOD OF FILLING CARRIER ROCKET WITH HELIUM

摘要

A method of filling carrier rocket with helium is based on heating gaseous helium with subsequent filling cylinders of a carrier rocket with helium to the working pressure. Prior to helium heating it is carried out its cooling in a cryostat to the temperature of freezing harmful impurities with helium pressure control at the inlet and outlet of cryostat, and filtration, and before filling the cylinders with helium triple additional filling cylinders with helium to an intermediate pressure and its drainage is carried out, and in case the differential pressure at inlet and outlet of the cryostat is more than 1 MPa the cryostat is switched off and an additional cryostat is connected.
