Abstract
A liquid delivery system is configured to pump a liquid (e.g., a cryogenic liquid) without a mechanical pump. The system includes a storage tank to store the liquid at low pressure; a transition tank configured to transition the low pressure liquid to a high pressure gas; and a pumping tank configured to first receive part of the low pressure liquid from the source tank and then to receive the pressurized gas from the transition tank to expel the low pressure liquid from the pumping tank. The liquid delivery system can be used to deliver fuel to an engine (e.g., on an aircraft).
