← ScienceWhich consequence results when rapid vaporization occurs in cryogenic storage?
A)Pressure buildup risks BLEVE explosion✓
B)Reduced thermal gradient enhances insulation
C)Superconductivity maintenance becomes energetically cheaper
D)Sublimation prevents helium gas venting
💡 Explanation
Pressure buildup risks BLEVE because **latent heat of vaporization** causes rapid expansion, therefore a catastrophic tank failure is likelier rather than increased insulation efficiency inherent during controlled boil-off.
