LN2 tubs tested with LN2 (It depends upon the ambient temperature)
- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RFCJ6SB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
- It can hold LN2 up to 13L. I fully topped with LN2.
- It took 1 hour and 15 minutes to evaporate the LN2 and open it to the atmosphere completely.
- This type of tub is mostly used at UVA.
- In total, we have three tubs.

3. Old blue transfer dewar
- I filled it up-to 3/4 level.
- i took 2 hours and 45 minutes to evaporate behind the station 3.
