Re: Liquid Gases on Robot as coolant

In what ways are you having heating problems on the robot? Although liquid nitrogen may be possible (and likely the safest of all liquid gases, it probably won't pass inspection on your robot. The reasoning would be that LN can be a major safety hazard due to it's low temperature, although there is no explicit rule saying it isn't allowed (assuming the no hydraulic fluid rule doesn't apply in this case).

Supposedly, it might be allowed for you to spray the stuff down before a match with compressed, supercooled gas, to lower the initial temperature well below zero, and hopefully it'll slow any overheating during a match. Just a theory, though.
