Hello, this is my first post, and I hope its in the correct forum!
As the title says, I'm interested in the power needed to vaporise LOX(liquid oxygen).
Specifically the physics involved for an old UK missile/rocket, called Blue Streak.
Some info here for that rocket.:

I've done some work with Mathcad, and this is what I have so far:

I have a value of 376Kw for this, but what's worrying me is the figure for Gas_Mass_Lox, the gaseous Lox from the heat-exchanger. Its completely different from HE_Lox_Flow. that's the mass going into the heat-exchanger.
I'm not sure any of the work I've done is accurate, just following some textbooks and using the formulas.
All help appreciated.
