Abstract
There is provided a tank system having a removable plug assembly. The tank system has a vacuum tank with a vacuum tank main portion, a pressure tank mounted within the vacuum tank, and a vacuum cavity formed between the pressure tank and the vacuum tank. The pressure tank has the removable plug assembly with removable plug element(s), each configured to plug and to unplug opening(s) in the pressure tank, and a retraction mechanism within the pressure tank coupled to the removable plug element(s). When an emergency condition occurs, the retraction mechanism is activated to pull the removable plug element(s) away from the opening(s) and into the interior of the pressure tank, to allow a cryogenic fluid to exit from the pressure tank, through the opening(s), and into the vacuum cavity, and when the vacuum tank has a breach, to allow the cryogenic fluid to further exit out into air.
