Best Answer

The geyser effect is observed in vertical pipelines with an overhead reservoir when circulation of the cryogenic product ceases. Under the action of a thermal influx, a low fluid boil, which proceeds in an avalanche like process, develops at first in the pipeline; this leads to a fluid discharge into the overhead propellant tank. A hydraulic hammer of significant magnitude, which may cause the system to rupture and lead to an emergency situation, develops as the pipeline is subsequently filled with fluid from the overhead propellant tank under gravity. The periodic nature of the geyser eruptions depends on the magnitude and distribution of the thermal influx over the length of the pipeline; therefore, the cyclic repetition of impact loading is also a risk.

Does fds feminine spray contain aerosol?

An aerosol is a cloud of solid or liquid particles in a gas. I think you are asking if FDS contains a propellant. I believe the Isobutane in the product is used as a propellant and is also what makes the product flammable.


What is the difference between solid propellant and liquid propellant rockets?

The Shuttle uses both. The outer rockets on the main body are aluminum oxide. Once lit you are on. In the big container sits a lot of separated liquid Oxygen and liquid Hydrogen. When mixed at the output nozzles, a steerable, controllable jet of very hot water is let go. The difference being solid rockets go on then off. The liquid ones are controllable.
