Re: Liquid Gases on Robot as coolant

This, in combination with other rules (see earlier post) will almost certainly disallow your idea.

But if it's in a tank, it's not going to be a coolant. I was picturing an open container, which, while dangerous, can only absorb energy and evaporate (similar to a heatsink, so this question confuses me unless it's for electronics which cannot be easily accessed), NEVER store it. So yes, theoretically it can store energy if the heat absorbed from the environment is not allowed to escape back in the form of N2 gas.

Compressed air, as I am led to believe, means compressed air, not a liquid form of a gas. The rules on de-pressurizing gas would be incapable of being applied.
