Report discusses calculations of thermodynamic aspects of refilling tanks with cryogenic liquids in low or zero gravity. Calculations required to design prototype system resupplying cryogenic propellant liquids to re-usable spacecraft not returning to Earth. Equations and computer programs developed for thermodynamic analysis used to extrapolate important design information from orbiting small-scale versions of system.
