Disk oxygen generator with closed flow loop for long-term COIL operation

摘要

A test facility was designed to operate a disk type singlet delta oxygen generator in a closed loop for the flow of basic hydrogen peroxide (BHP). The facility allows the investigations of the influence of operating conditions like BHP flow, gas flow, disk rotation speed, and system components like disk package parameters and type of liquid separator on the generator performance and the ascertainment of the facilities capability for long term COIL operation. The dimension of the generator in the closed flow loop is chosen in accordance with the 10 kW-DLR-COIL.
