The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Washington State University (WSU) to design, develop, fabricate, and test a Heisenberg Vortex Tube (HVT); a hydrogen delivery device intended to increase hydrogen liquefaction cycle efficiency and lower the cost of liquid hydrogen delivery. Experiments would be conducted alongside development of the HVT, to further research on vortex tube operation and development. The project would be completed over three Budget Periods (BPs), with a Go/No-Go Decision Point in between each BP.
