Producing liquid-solid mixtures of hydrogen using an auger

Producing slush oxygen with an auger and measuring the storage characteristics of slush hydrogen

“…In this study, an auger previously used to produce slush hydrogen [1] was used to produce slush oxygen. The auger system can continuously produce slush, and since the auger system can be immersed in liquid, slush can be produced at pressures above triple point pressure.…”

Density determination of slush nitrogen by the improved capacitance-type densimeter

“…There are several slush fluid production techniques, such as the freeze-thaw method [1] and the Auger method [2], and the former is commonly used in the laboratory due to its simplicity. In the freeze-thaw method, solid layers are created on the liquid/vapor interface by evacuating the vapor during the freeze cycle, then are submerged into the liquid during the thaw cycle and finally are broken into solid particles by the agitator.…”
