Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
One question - cryogenic fuel is normally transported in huge Dewar type of containers.So why is it mentioned that they are chiolling and then pumping the fuel ? Are they lowering the temperature further to prevent "in fueling transit" temperature rise ?
Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
Video broadcast on DD and web starts at 3:52pm
Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
ISRO should assemble a fully final GSLV and let it stand for 30 days and see what happens to the parts every 2 hours. Last time it leaked and they said something like it happens to that specific alloy after a period is irresponsible behaviour. They should have pre-tested the alloy's durability in advance.

Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
The problem is one of the rolling stock they used an older version stock which is known to develop cracks.They ahd changed the stock to a different AFNOR number alloy

Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
nvishal do you think you can load cryogenic fuel and tons of toxic liquid fuel and keep it standing for days ?
Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
Nvishal ji, the difficulty and expense in maintaining LH2 and corrosive LOX for long periods is why most ICBMs don't have cryogenic engines.

A material science guy would laugh at that excuseThe problem is one of the rolling stock they used an older version stock which is known to develop cracks.They ahd changed the stock to a different AFNOR number alloy
Are you saying that these nationally broadcasted launches are "tests" in reality?do you think you can load cryogenic fuel and tons of toxic liquid fuel and keep it standing for days ?
Well anyway, Im doing OT posts here. Will post in the old space thread next time.

Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
The problem that occurred during last attempt was due to a bit bold step with confidence in the second stage fuel tank. We cant say that ISRO showed negligence. it is just an accident. The same tank was used in most of the previous launches.
By the way..Liquid/Cryo fuels have to be loaded just before launch.

Re: GSLV-D5 Launch status and post launch discussions
Gentlemen, fuel loading is always done at the end for stages with liquid or Cryo fuels. Only Solid fuelled stages are pre-cast... also. Fueling is done ONLY at the launch site and right before the launch.
