- the liquefied fluid storage tank shown in FIG. 1 conventionally comprises a storage wall 1, for example of generally cylindrical shape, whose internal surface delimits a storage volume for liquefied fluid (cryogenic fluid stored in liquid / gas equilibrium).
- a storage wall 1 may be housed in an outer wall with an insulation system between the walls 1, 5 (vacuum and thermal insulation layer).
- the storage wall 1 can also be housed in a vacuum chamber or a cold atmosphere for isolating as much stored fluid as possible from the heat inputs.

- the nitrogen can be vaporized (for example at a temperature of -103 ° C. (170K).
- the structure of the exchanger also makes it possible to adapt the power of the heat exchange, defined by the difference between the temperature of change of state of the hot fluid in the tank delimited by the wall 1 and the temperature of the mass 3. This power is also dependent on the coolant flow rate.
- the heat capacity of the assembly gives a significant thermal inertia to the system. This ensures temperature stability and therefore pressure in the tank. In general, the large amount of frigories stored within the assembly ensures the thermal stability of the system.
