This lecture covers the design and manufacturing process of cryogenic tanks for bi-liquid propulsion, including material selection, geometry design, and safety requirements. The tanks are assembled using carbon fiber tubes and cryogenic resistant adhesive epoxy, with a focus on using aluminum alloy, stainless steel, and carbon fiber reinforced polymer. The manufacturing steps involve capillary machining, welding, winding with carbon filaments, and testing for safety.
