A method and apparatus for subcooling a liquid composed of a volatile fluid, for instance, a saturated liquid cryogen, in which two chambers are filled with the fluid and are each initially pressurized after filling so that the fluid is converted to a subcooled liquid. The pressurization of the two chambers is maintained as the subcooled liquid is delivered from each of the two chambers. The filling and the delivery of the two chambers is effected in accordance with a cycle in which one chamber is filled and initially pressurized just prior to the completion of the delivery from the other chamber to allow the continual delivery of the subcooled liquid. |
