WSU student helps pave the way for NASA dust cleaning

Washington State University student, Ian Wells, will be presenting a solution to cleaning lunar dust out of spacesuits to NASA.  It may seem like a minor problem, however, it’s an issue that NASA has faced for years.  In WSU’s HYPER Lab, Professor Jake Leachman tested the Leidenfrost Effect and discovered that liquid nitrogen can pick up lunar dust. Prior to this, Wells created a camera with the ability to capture the flow of fluids. The camera he built worked well enough that Leachman asked him to try it out in the HYPER lab, taking images of the liquid nitrogen picking up dust.

Origami provides a path to building a better tank for rocket fuel

A plastic bladder folded into an origami shape can stand up to cryogenic temperatures. (WSU Photo) Build a better fuel tank, and the space industry will beat a path to your door. At least that’s what Washington State University researchers are hoping after they harnessed the ancient art of origami to develop a foldable fuel bladder that stands up to cryogenic temperatures. Graduate student Kjell Westra, engineering professor Jake Leachman and their colleagues at WSU’s Hydrogen Properties for Energy Research Laboratory, or HYPER Lab, describe their design in the journal Cryogenics. Their research addresses a longstanding challenge in rocket science: How can you store and pump super-chilled propellants like liquid hydrogen more efficiently?
