The science and technology of liquid hydrogen-once essential prere­ quisites for the rapid development of space technology-are now also proving to be more and more important for the energy production of the future. Hydrogen as an energy carrier can generally mediate the existing disparity between nuclear energy and regenerative energy, both of which are indispensable for the future. Hydrogen, as a secondary energy carrier, can be produced from these primary energy sources with minimal environmental impact and without the detrimental, long-term pollution effects of current fossil fuel technology. Hydrogen, therefore, represents the ultimate in energy technology. The initial, large-scale application of hydrogen as a secondary energy was as a high-energy rocket propellant. The procedures for its large scale liquefaction, storage and employment were generally developed in the U.S. Currently in Europe similar activities are being conducted only in France. The effort in West Germany involves testing hydrogen-oxygen and hydrogen-fluorine rocket engines, studying also the physical and technical characteristics of slush hydrogen-mixture of the solid and liquid phase-and is concentrating currently on R&D applications of liquid hydrogen as an alternate fuel. Similar activities are also being conducted in Japan and Canada.FluidsThermodynamicsPower electronicsAir pollutionFluid- and Aerodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21026Thermodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21050Power Electronics, Electrical Machines and Networkshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24070Atmospheric Protection/Air Quality Control/Air Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35010Fluids.Thermodynamics.Power electronics.Air pollution.Fluid- and Aerodynamics.Thermodynamics.Power Electronics, Electrical Machines and Networks.Atmospheric Protection/Air Quality Control/Air Pollution.532533.62Peschka Walterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1492211BOOK9910789212203321Liquid Hydrogen3714560UNINA
