Updates about the Flint Cross fireRead more » More news
Did you know over £140 million worth of clothing gets dumped in landfill sites each year. Even if it's on its last legs it can still go to be recycled.
Residents encouraged to give old clothes a new lease of life and help save money by recycling them as part of a new campaign.
Recycle for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough (RECAP) has launched the 'Love your clothes' campaign which is an national initiative, with backing of 64 major charities and clothing retailers such as Debenhams, John Lewis and the British Heart Foundation. The campaign which runs throughout August, September and October is asking residents to recycle all their unwanted textiles – not just clothes, instead of throwing them away.
All unwanted textiles can be used again, no matter what condition they are in. Even rags, old towels, worn out clothes, stained fabrics and misshapen tops can be recycled into new outfits or can be made into things such as padding for furniture, carpet backing and even speakers.
It's easy to do – residents can either take them to their local recycling centre, a textile bring bank or donate them to a local charity to help them raise funds. Your local council will have a leaflet with these details, or visit the website for a simple guide.

While I don't agree with the decision, I understand it. Shame, though.
This is coming from someone who doesn't even LIKE Ridley, Metroid, or its fan base; I did feel that he deserved a spot.
Male, United States
While I don't agree with the decision, I understand it. Shame, though.
This is coming from someone who doesn't even LIKE Ridley, Metroid, or its fan base; I did feel that he deserved a spot.
How fitting that MEWTWO was constructed as an EXPERIMENT. Sakurai confirmed to be Giovanni.
Downloading Pokémon TCG immediately. I've been asking for months for them to bring over the European VC games, and they're finally doing it. Slowly, but surely.
I'm so glad I held onto my Wii Zapper all this time. So glad.
@RedKnightXIII Learn how to grab. He is crippled by grabs EVEN on For Glory.
I think ones like Smash!Mario and Smash!Yoshi will be limited-edition, too, since those characters will be reissued in different forms with subsequent games. It was confirmed early on that things like Mario Party 10!Mario will be backwards compatible with Smash.
Sheesh, someone give this guy a pillow. And an all expenses paid plane ticket to somewhere. I'm fine with Mewtwo being the only DLC for a while, he's really outdoing himself.
I plan to buy Nightmare in Dream Land immediately. I hope to send a message that I appreciate the fact that they're finally bringing over some of the Europe-only VC games, and I will let them know that on Club Nintendo, too.
Aww yissss, they're finally bringing the European games to the US. Now I can finally stop complaining on Club Nintendo.
Now, just to wait for Game & Watch Gallery 3...
Great, that means I can't use them. All controllers with Turbo Buttons have been universally banned in real matches since 64, and in all other fighting games even before that.
@ghasfarost Only if you like Castlevania. I always found the series very generic and boring, personally, so this is going to be a LONG wait for me.
In the meantime, I'm still waiting for Fire Emblem and Game & Watch Gallery 3, which are already out in Europe...
And Reggie thinks letting more of these through has more potential than the Virtual Console. He needs to either get some sense with quality control or step down.
So SSB3D sold 300,000 less units here than it did in Japan in the same time period? That's actually pretty bad.
8/10, eh? Too bad it will never, ever be released in the North American service.
sigh YET ANOTHER completely empty week. I've complained about the awful state of the VC on every single VC game Club Nintendo survey I fill out. Just goes to show you that Reggie doesn't actually care about what's in demand.
Still nothing for the 3DS VC? Oh boy. Big surprise.
It uses the Gamepad? Drat, I thought I had something to use the Wii Zapper on again...
@SuperMalleo NoA did, at least.
No Game & Watch Gallery 3?... Drat... stupid Europe getting all the good VC games exclusively...
I hope GW Gallery 3 makes its way to the U.S. on Thursday. I've been waiting for it to get released for a while now.
...though, admittedly, with SSB4 about to be released, this does seem like the perfect time to put the spotlight on Mr. Game & Watch.
@rjejr that analogy doesn't work here. Because it wasn't the tires or engine that were taken; it was a bumper sticker that the previous owner accidentally left attached.
Miiverse was not required, optimal, or even decent for comic sharing. Now get over yourself, use your SD card, and stop acting so entitled.
I'd like to point out that MIIVERSE SHARING WAS NEVER INTENDED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
That FAQ even said that on release day, when screenshots were still allowed. It was a glitch or oversight that it was enabled at first.
No.No no no no no. I am NOT buying characters that'll take up space on my shelves and my wallet.
Skylanders and Infinity are the two most hated games of this generation. Who the flying love would follow their example?!
Please watch the profanity — TBD
Ugh... what about those of us who need to make multi-part LONG posts?! Which I need to often?!
I... actually think putting on the Updated Rerelease of Yoshi's Island was a good choice. This one was meant to be played on a home console and not a portable, after all, and it provides a bit of fresh air instead of just rereleasing the SNES one... again.
@Nintenjoe64: ...wait, WHAT?! Ugh... UGH. No doubt it's due to some anti-piracy DRM nonsense that's not going to stop them anyway. Bloating the game to over 20 times its size is a little excessive, EVEN FOR NINTENDO...
Mmhhh, I think I'll pass. WarioWare was good, but not Non-Portable good.
(And why is everyone still pretending to be excited about SMB3? Even people who hate Mario have memorized every brick in fifty different ways by now...)
I can't pretend to be excited about the releases this week. I already own the GBA games, and Rusty's Ripoff Shop just plain pisses me off by being there. A bunch of little minigames that probably exist thousands of ways in Adobe Flash for more than the cost of DSiWare each... who would buy those?! That said, I'll probably download it anyway for the one free game and the fact that I have a massive SD card...
As much as I disagree with the decision, I at least see where they're coming from with it. That said, I won't be buying any of them because I own the original cartridges already.
3DS GBA VC will come eventually. But hey, Wii U owners like me need SOMETHING besides Super Mario Bros.: Slightly Different Brick Positions Ultra Turbo Edition #78 to tide us over until Super Smash Bros. comes out. I basically have a $300 brick right now.

D'Lorin - Ain't Yo Boyfriend
Artist: D'Lorin
Producer: J Wess
Album: Still Life
Avg Rating: 3.1 ( 7 votes )
Women are always claiming that they just want men to be honest. In that case, ladies, I'd like you to meet the man of your dreams, D'Lorin. On new The DJBooth world premiere Ain't Yo Boyfriend the Cali native, fresh off his CyHi-assisted single A.S.A.P., lets it be known that he's not here for love, just some good ol' fashioned hit it and quit it. With J Wess laying down a supremely mellow, guitar infused beat D'Lorin expands on the title's premise, making sure girls hit his bed, but don't stay there for long. For more hip-hop that's not afraid to tell it like it is, be sure to cop D'Lorin's Still Life album, available for free stream and download on The DJBooth this Wednesday, August 8.

Global Insights: World Might Not Play Along With Obama's 'Team of Friends'
President Barack Obama begins his second term with a new national security team in the making. It now looks like most if not all his key nominees will secure Senate confirmation in coming months, with Sen. John Kerry at State, former Sen. Chuck Hagel at Defense and White House counterterrorism czar John Brennan at the CIA.
Though some have described Obama's new "team of friends" as representing an inward-looking impulse, world events may not permit that. As in his first term, Obama will probably again face a gap between his preferred goals and strategies -- focusing on Asia and rebuilding U.S. military and economic power -- and contingencies both abroad and at home, with non-Asian scenarios diverting his attention and U.S. political stalemate threatening his domestic agenda. ...

The present invention relates to a liquid propellant feed system for bipropellant rockets.
Most rocket utilize either pump fed liquid propellants, or solid propellants. For some applications, bipropellant pressure fed liquid rockets are used. Propellants are stored in tanks which are pressurized with gas by one of several means. High pressure propellants are fed from the pressurized tank to the rocket engine. The usual propellants used are monomethyl hydrazine (fuel) and nitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer).
Pressure fed liquid propellant rockets typically have a lower propellant fraction and thus lower are performing than pump fed liquid rockets. However, they are reliable, and well adapted to missions where the engine must be started and stopped many times. Pressure fed bipropellant liquid rockets are used in such systems as the orbital maneuvering system and the attitude control system of the Space Shuttle. Pressure fed liquid rocket engines are also used in interplanetary spacecraft for course correction, orbital insertion, etc. (e.g. Mars Observer).
For use in rocket vehicles operating in zero gravity, pressure fed liquid propellant systems must have some way of insuring that upon initial opening of the valves from the propellant tank(s) to the engine, the tank expels liquid propellant rather than pressurizing gas. In one system for this, propellant acquisition devices consisting of screens or closely spaced vanes are employed over the tank outlet. Propellant is maintained by surface tension at the outlet of the tank, to allow initial rocket engine operation (once the rocket accelerates, the propellant moves to the outlet end of the tank). In another system, the propellant is separated from the pressurizing gas by a flexible diaphragm or bladder. The diaphragm allows the gas to apply pressure to liquid, but prevents the gas from ever entering the tank outlet.
The simplest method of pressurizing a liquid propellant tank is a "blowdown" system. The tank is filled only partly with propellant, then high pressure gas is introduced into the "ullage space" (the part of the tank not occupied by propellant). Typically, helium is used as a pressurizing gas because it has a low molecular weight (and thus, a low gas density which reduces the inert mass of the rocket and improves performance). Helium also has the advantage that it is chemically unreactive with all propellants, and relatively insoluble in propellants. In use, as the pressurized propellant is fed to the rocket motor, the pressure in the tank drops due to expansion of the gas. When a substantial fraction of the propellant is withdrawn quickly, there is little time for heat transfer from the tank walls. In this case, the gas expands adiabatically rather than isothermally, and the gas cools as it expands which causes even more of a pressure drop.
To counteract the effect of pressure drop as propellant is withdrawn, a separate tank of high pressure gas at ambient temperature may be provided. Gas from this tank is then reduced in pressure by a pressure regulator, and applied to the ullage space of the propellant tank(s). Such "stored gas" systems offer good pressure regulation, but suffer from complexity of plumbing, and have a number of failure modes related to leaking pressure regulators and migration of propellants past check valves. A failure in the helium pressurization system for the bipropellant engine of the Mars Observer is thought to be responsible for the loss of this $1 billion spacecraft.
In the case of a pressure-fed orbital launcher, all propellant needs to be expelled quickly from the tank in a short time period. Large scale versions of the blowdown or stored gas systems may be used. Blowdown systems suffer from excessive vehicle size, while stored gas systems suffer from complexity. Both suffer from relatively heavy inert masses. The performance of such systems may be improved by heating the ullage gas, but this imposes additional complexity.
Higher performance may be gained by storing the pressurizing agent as a liquid, then evaporating it with a liquid fueled gas generator to produce gas of the temperature and pressure needed for tank pressurizing. Such liquid evaporation systems weight less than blowdown or stored gas systems, and thus can be relatively high performing. They are however relatively complex, typically requiring high pressure storage tanks for cryogenic pressurizing agents and gas generators burning auxiliary propellants.
Solid propellant gas generators are simpler, but the temperature of the gas which is produced is too high to be used directly for the pressurization of most propellants without dilution with a vaporizable liquid (which again increases complexity).
Finally, "main tank injection" has been proposed for orbital launchers. In this system, hypergolic propellants are used which chemically react with one another on contact to release large amounts of heat. The typical combination of propellants used is a hydrazine based fuel, with nitrogen tetroxide as an oxidizer. The hydrazine tank is pressurizing by spraying liquid nitrogen tetroxide into it, which causes a violent chemical reaction which generates large volumes of hot gas. The nitrogen tetroxide tank is pressurized by spraying hydrazine type fuel into it which gives the same effect. Main tank injections systems however, are still relatively complex, and suffer from a number of potential problems related to controlling the pressure of the tank when there is a lag period between injection of the hypergolic propellant, and generation of the gas. Furthermore, main tank injection requires the use of highly toxic propellants (all standard hypergolic propellant combinations included at least one very toxic propellant), and generates very high gas temperatures which limits the materials suitable for tank construction. Main tank injection has never been used in an actual launch vehicle.
A number of the above described propellant feed systems are discussed in "Modern Engineering for Design of Liquid Propellant Rocket Engines" by Huzel et al. published by the American Institute of Aeronautic and Astronautics, Vol. 147 (1992), Chapter 5, pp 135-153 inclusive.
U.K. patent application 2051246A published Jan. 14, 1981 by Davies et al. describes an evaporating liquid ammonia to provide a sufficiently high pressure at the expected operating temperature and using a flexible diaphragm to apply the pressure to the liquid fuel.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,132,165 issued Jan. 2, 1979 to Leeson describes a missile employing solid rocket fuel which also heats a liquid that vaporizes to provide pressurized vapor that is used to propel the liquid fuel to a combustor after the solid fuel has been depleted.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,207,399 issued May 4, 1993 to Risenberg describes another vapor pressurizing system disassociates hydrazine and the byproducts used to indirectly heat the fuels, i.e. the oxidizer and the fuel to generate vapor pressures in both of these tanks sufficient to feed each of these propellant components to the engine.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved pressure feed system for delivering a volatile rocket propellant and a second rocket propellant to a rocket engine.
Broadly, the present invention relates to a pressurized propellant feeding system for a rocket engine comprising a source of a volatile liquid rocket propellant and source of a second liquid rocket propellant, storing both said volatile and said second rocket propellants in pressure communicating relationship, said volatile propellant having a vapor pressure sufficiently high to pressurize both said volatile and said second rocket propellants and provide the sole means for forcing said volatile rocket propellant and said second rocket propellant each from its said source to said rocket engine.
Preferably, both said volatile and said second rocket propellant are stored in a single vessel.
Preferably, said volatile and said second propellants are separated from each other by a bladder means.
In some cases said bladder means will comprise a diaphragm.
Preferably said bladder means will comprise a collapsible/expandable bladder containing one of said propellants.
Preferably, said second propellant is contained within said bladder.
Preferably, an outlet for one of said propellants positioned above the other of said propellants will have a density sufficiently higher than said other of said propellants to deform said bladder means and form a sump for receiving said one of said propellants.
Preferably a gas outlet will be provided leading for leading from a zone containing the vapor form of said volatile propellant.
In some cases said volatile and said second rocket propellant are removed from their respective sources in substantially the same direction.
Further features, objects and advantages will be evident from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which;
FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration of the first embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a similar schematic section of a second embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 3 shows a similar view of a third embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 4 shows a fourth embodiment of the present invention.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the two rocket propellants, namely the volatile propellant which preferably is the fuel and the other propellant (normally the oxidizer) are contained within the same vessel 10.
In the FIG. 1 embodiment the vessel or container 10 contains a bladder 12 that is collapsible from the full condition which is sized to contain all of the second propellant 44 to a collapsed condition wherein the top 14 of the bladder 12 approaches the bottom 18 and the free space generally indicated at 20 within the tank or vessel 10 is increase in size while the volume within the bladder 12 decreases.
In the FIG. 1 embodiment space 20 external to bladder 12 contains volatile propellant 24 which normally will have an upper surface 26 and a pressurized gaseous atmosphere 30 thereabove (i.e. a vapor zone containing the volatile component in the vapor phase). The gaseous atmosphere 30 is generated by evaporation of the volatile propellant 24 and thus has a pressure substantially equal to the vapor pressure of the volatile propellant 24.
The volatile propellant 24 is withdrawn via an outlet 34. The structure of outlet 34 is sufficiently denser than that of the propellant on which it rests, in the illustrated arrangement, the second propellant 44, so that under gravitational or rocket acceleration it locally depresses the upper surface of the bladder 14 to form a sump 16 for the acquisition of the volatile propellant 24. The outlet 34 is connected via a hose or tube 38 to a fuel outlet 40 that directs fuel to propellant control valves and the rocket engine as schematically indicated at 42.
The bladder 12 surrounds a space 22 which contains the second propellant 44 (oxidizer in the FIG. 1 embodiment) which is removed from the bladder via outlet 46 and directed to propellant control valves and the engine 42.
In the FIG. 1 embodiment the outlets 34 and 46 both remove the propellant components from their respective sources within the vessel 10 in essentially the same direction.
The operation of the system in FIG. 1 and of the other Figures is very similar and uses the pressure of the vapor phase 30 of a volatile propellant 24 to pressurize both the volatile propellant 24 and the second propellant 44 to provide the driving force to eject these propellants from the container 10 and feed them to the rocket motor 42.
In most cases it is desirable to provide a gas tap or outlet 28 leading from the vapor or gas phase zone 30. The outlet is constructed of material that permits the passage of the gas phase but prevent outflow of liquid. The vapor leaving though outlet 28 passes via line or tube 32 under control of the valve 36 to where it will be used as intended for example to be used for main engine thrust vector control (TVC), cold gas thrusters, or the like.
Liked parts have been indicated with like reference numerals in the various embodiments.
In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 2, the bladder 12 has been replaced by a different bladder 12A enclosing space 20 that contains the volatile propellant 24 to a level 26 above which is propellant vapor 30.
In this embodiment, the second propellant 44 is contained within the space 22 external to bladder 12A. As in the previous embodiment the second propellant 44 is withdrawn from the vessel 10 via the outlet 46 and fed to the engine 42. The volatile propellant contained within the bladder 12A is directed out through sump 16, outlet 34 and the connecting tube 38 to the outlet 40 and then to the engine as indicated at 42.
In the FIG. 2 embodiment the bladder 12A must expand via the internal pressure to substantially fill the vessel 10 when the second propellant 44 has been ejected.
Turning now to FIG. 3, in this embodiment the bladder 12 or 12A has been replaced by a diaphragm 12B attached to the tank walls to separate space 20, which contains the volatile propellant 24 to a level 26 above which is propellant vapor 30, from space 22 which contains the second propellant 44. The volatile propellant 24 and second propellant 44 are withdrawn or driven from vessel 10 by the pressure of the vapor 30 in the same manner as the two propellants are driven from the vessels 10 in FIGS. 1 and 2 embodiments. The diaphragm 12B must have sufficient slack to conform with the shape of the vessel 10 as the interface between spaces 20 and 22 is driven along the length of vessel 10 as the second propellant 44 is removed, while maintaining the separation of the two propellants.
In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 the volatile propellant is conducted to the bottom of the tank by a descending hose or connecting tube 38. It is also feasible in alternate embodiments of the invention to route this tube from the sump 16 and outlet 34 so that it exits the tank through the side or top of the tank, from which position an external propellant line descends to the engine. As an alternative to the use of a sump-forming outlet 34 and a flexible connecting tube 38 in the FIG. 1 embodiment, a rigid channel attached to the tank wall and extending from the space occupied by the volatile propellant to the bottom of the tank may be used. Said channel is perforated throughout its length, and is designed to act as a bladder stand-off device which creates an unrestricted flow path by which the volatile propellant can flow past the bladder containing the second propellant and reach an outlet in the tank bottom.
In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, a flexible membrane (bladder means) in the form of bladder 12 or 12A or diaphragm 12B is used to divide the interior of the vessel into two spaces, 20 and 22. In these embodiments, space 20 contains the volatile propellant 24 and its vapor 30, while space 22 contains the second propellant 44.
Alternatively, if the propellants used are not hypergolic and can be safely stored in contact with one another, the bladder or diaphragm may be dispensed with. In this alternate embodiment the volatile propellant 24 is withdrawn through an outlet fitting analogous to 34 which has a density intermediate between that of the volatile propellant 24 and the second propellant 44. The outlet thus floats at the interface between the two propellants, and the volatile propellant 24 is withdrawn from the upper surface of the outlet structure through a hose or tube 38.
Obviously some of those embodiments wherein there is not a bladder means which positively separates the two propellants do not lend themselves to use under free fall conditions (i.e. zero gravity).
In the FIG. 4 embodiment, two separate vessels 10A and 10B are used. The volatile propellant 24 is contained in vessel 10A. Some of this propellant evaporates to form a vapor phase 30 which pressurizes space 20 in the vessel 10A and this pressurized vapor is conducted via a gas outlet 28, tube 32, valve 36 and interconnecting tube 48 to the vessel 10B to provide the same pressure in the space 20' in the vessel 10B as in vessel 10A. Line 48 also provides gas for TVC or cold gas thrusters. The second propellant is contained within space 22 in vessel 10B. The propellants 24 and 44 are driven from their respective vessels 10A and 10B through the outlets 40 and 46 respectively to the rocket engine 42.
The pressurized gas in space 20' in vessel 10B is preferably contained with an expandable bladder 12C. Alternately, the second propellant 44 could be contained in a collapsible bladder as shown in FIG. 1 or a diaphragm could be used to separate the gas and the second propellant 44. Separation of the gas and second propellant could also be accomplished by dispensing with the bladder means and using a thin layer of an immiscible and chemically inert liquid floating on top of the second propellant. Yet another alternative suitable for relatively non-reactive propellant combinations would be to use neither a bladder nor a diaphragm but to have the gas from vessel 10A directly contact and apply pressure to the second propellant 44 in the vessel 10B.
In the FIG. 4 embodiment a valve 36 is provided in the tube 48 to isolate the vessel 10A from the vessel 10B. With this arrangement the valve is maintained in the closed position isolating the two vessels 10A and 10B and opened when the engine is to be started.
The invention is most easily used with rocket propellants maintained at room temperature, where suitable materials for flexible bladders or diaphragms 12, 12A, 12B, 12C and fuel pickup lines 38 are readily available.
Composite materials such as Kevlar/epoxy or carbon fiber/epoxy are particularly suitable for pressure vessel 10, 10A, 10B construction, as they are light for their strength. Because the vessels operate near ambient temperature, there is no need for metal construction or heat resistant composite materials.
The flexible bladders or diaphragms shown for example at 12, 12A, 12B, 12C are preferably not under tension--the liquid pressure is the same on either side and the bladders or diaphragms are preferably made large enough to accommodate their maximum extension without stretching. The bladders for example may be though of as a "bag" rather than a "balloon".
Obviously, the bladder or diaphragm material must have chemical compatibility with both the fuel and oxidizer, suitable strength and abrasion resistance, and must be easily formed into bladders or diaphragms of the required dimensions using leak-proof joints.
The volatile propellant 24 must have the following characteristics:
be a good fuel or oxidizer for a bipropellant rocket engine
be chemically compatible with materials suitable for system construction
have adequate vapor pressure at the initial operating temperature of the rocket to provide the needed pressurization for rocket engine ignition and initial operation
have physical properties such that sufficient volatile propellant can evaporate to complete the expulsion of both the fuel and oxidizer from the propellant supply system of a bipropellant rocket engine without its vapor pressure dropping below the pressure required for rocket engine operation. Typical lower pressure limits for conventional bipropellant engines are approximately 1 MPa tank pressure.
Candidate volatile propellants include:
nitrous oxide
C3 and higher hydrocarbons containing dissolved methane, ethylene or ethane to provide vapor pressure.
Since fuel and oxidizer are stored in the same tank separated only by a bladder means, the most suitable combinations of propellants are those which are not hypergolic with each other (and thus would not cause an explosion should a hole develop in the bladder means).
Suitable non-hypergolic oxidizers for hydrocarbon fuels include hydrogen peroxide, perchloryl fluoride, nitrogen tetroxide, and various grades of nitric acid. The most favored oxidizer is hydrogen peroxide, due to its good performance, low cost, high density and lack of nitrogen tetroxide toxicity. Nitromethane, nitroethane and nitropropane are believed to be suitable fuels for use with nitrous oxide as they have a low oxidizer to fuel ratio (to minimize the volume occupied by the relatively low density nitrous oxide) and have a density higher than that of nitrous oxide (important for embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3).
As the propellants are withdrawn from the tank 10, the volatile propellant 24 evaporates to provide pressurizing gas. As evaporation takes place, the energy for evaporation is withdrawn primarily from the volatile propellant 24, which cools in spite of a certain amount of heat flow from the tank walls and the other propellant 44 in the tank. As the volatile propellant cools, its vapor pressure drops and the pressure throughout the propellant tank drops correspondingly.
Because only a fraction of the volatile propellant 24 evaporates, it will only cool modestly as the propellants are expelled from the tank. The remainder of the somewhat cooled volatile propellant is burned in the engine. In effect, the volatile propellant is acting as its own heat sink for provision of energy for liquid evaporation. This distinguishes this system from a conventional liquid evaporation propellant pressurization system, which relies on an external source of heat to provide the energy needed for evaporation.
If mixed volatile propellants are used, the propellant mix will be selectively depleted of its volatile component as it evaporates. This will act to lower the vapor pressure of the mix continuously as the propellants are withdrawn via a mechanism independent of the lowering of vapor pressure due to temperature drop.
The progressive pressure drop caused by propellant cooling and by depletion of volatile components acts to automatically reduce tank pressure and thus rocket thrust throughout a rocket burn. This gives a form of automatic throttling which usefully limits the final acceleration of the rocket.
The performance of the described system depends strongly on the final density of the pressurizing gas at the end of a rocket bum (the lower the better). This drives the system to use volatile propellants which generate a low molecular weight gas phase. For a given volatile propellant, the gas density depends on the final pressure and temperature of the gas. Rocket performance may thus be improved by arranging the propellant supply system to have a low tank pressure at the termination of the rocket burn (even if for performance reasons pressure was high at the beginning of the bum), and/or by heating the pressurizing gas. These refinements are not absolutely required for the implementation of the system, as volatile propellants such as ethane or ethane mixed with higher hydrocarbons give good performance even in a simple passive sealed system following its natural pressure and temperature history.
To reduce the pressure (and thus, the gas density and mass at the end of a rocket burn), pressurant gas may be bled from the top of the tank during liquid propellant withdrawal, and used for a variety of purposes. The bleeding of gas causes a pressure drop which increases evaporation of the liquid phase of the volatile propellant. This in turn cools the liquid, which lowers its vapor pressure, driving down the tank pressure more rapidly than would happen otherwise.
To increase the temperature of the pressurizing gas (and thus, reduce its density), hot gas from a solid or liquid gas generator may be injected into the ullage space of the tank. Alternatively, decomposed hydrogen peroxide (which produces a jet of hot steam and oxygen which spontaneously reacts with hydrocarbon vapors) may be used.
When all but residual liquid propellant has been expelled from the tank, the tank will still contain a substantial mass of high pressure gas. After the main engine has shut down, this gas may be exhausted through the engine, recapturing heat from the still-hot engine and giving a small additional amount of thrust to improve the rocket performance.
The operation of the pressurization system naturally generates a large mass of high pressure gas in the ullage space of the tank. This may be tapped for other uses by a fitting at the top of the compartment containing the volatile propellant. For zero gravity operations, a liquid blocking device may be used to ensure that only gas is removed from the tank. Gas withdrawn in this way may be used in a gas injection thrust vector control system for the main engine. The same gas can be used in cold gas thrusters for roll control and for stage separation maneuvers (replacing the solid rockets normally used for the latter). In upper stages gas may be used in cold gas thrusters for attitude control, propellant settling, minor course corrections, and rendezvous maneuvers.
Volatile propellants used for tank pressurization are always just at their boiling temperature in tanks. A small pressure drop will thus cause vapor formation. At the engine of an accelerating vehicle, the volatile propellant is under a modest hydraulic head, but it is likely that any attempt to throttle its flow will result in cavitation and two phase flow downstream of the valve, which may be undesirable in the engine injector. Propellant feed systems for the volatile propellant are likely therefore to be designed to minimize pressure drops, and use an engine shutoff valve which provides an unrestricted flow path when open. With "wide-open" volatile propellant flow to the engine, any adjustment to mixture ratio must then be done by throttling the other propellant. An alternative solution to the problem of potential two phase flow in injectors is to vaporize all of the volatile propellant before leading it to the injector, using a regenerative cooled thrust chamber or other suitable method of heating.
In most practical implementations of the invention, the propellant with the lower vapor pressure is positively expelled by a bladder or diaphragm system, and thus, is available under zero gravity conditions without a propellant settling maneuver.
In zero gravity conditions, a propellant settling maneuver is required before main engine ignition to ensure pickup of the volatile propellant. This can be done by the vehicle attitude control system. Alternatively, if the lower vapor pressure propellant is a monopropellant (e.g. hydrogen peroxide), the rocket engine may be operated in monopropellant mode first to settle the volatile propellant prior to bipropellant operation.
Having described the invention, modifications will be evident to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

For some reason my account was corrupted after a PC reboot yesterday. And now I can't seem to be able to log into my Google Chrome account. It shows me the account page and I login though it doesn't load the next page that's supposed to come up
Alright, fix it through the most obvious way: My account was still "signed in" but it asked for my password. I selected the option to sign in with a complete new account and re-entered my email and the corresponding password. Now it's logged in and all synced up again.
Edit: A question though. Has anyone had the Omnibox being part of a Google search page? Whenever I was searching on Google yesterday the Omnibox was part of the search page and the black bar of Google was gone (I hope I'm explaining this right). The Omnibox dropdown also looked a bit different and the "New Tab" page had a search field in it as well.

Jim Gilchrist Sympathizes With Caller Who Wants To Gas Child Migrants To Death
Minuteman Project leader Jim Gilchrist appeared today on VCY America's "Crosstalk," where a caller chimed in to suggest that the child migrants who have fled to the southern U.S. border should be put into a gas chamber.
"We need to put them in a prison camp or a building and not give them any help, just lock them up with arms behind them, or otherwise we are going to put them in a building and gas them to death like they did in Germany, we can't put up with this," the caller said.
After host Vic Eliason chided the caller for her remarks, Gilchrist said he sympathized with her "angst" and "anger" at the "mob of illegal aleins." He thanked the caller and commended her for sharing her beliefs, claiming that her call to kill the immigrants was simply a metaphor.
"I understand that lady's angst and her resignation that we are no longer a nations of laws," Gilchrist said. "She sees we are no longer a nation of laws."
He continued: "Maybe the conduct du jour now is fight lawlessness with lawlessness, and if we are going to have a Congress and a president and a mob of illegal aliens who are going to snub their nose at the law, why can't this lady feel the same way? I sense that is where her anger is coming from. She has no intention of putting anyone in prison, I think that was a metaphor. I commend her for coming forward with her feelings because I know what she is talking about. Thank you, ma'am."
