The boiling temp of nitrogen at 1 atm is -196°C. The temp of liquid nitrogen in a tank open to the atmosphere at sea level will remain constant until it is depleted. Any heat transfer to the tank will result in the evaporation of some liquid nitrogen, which has a heat of vaporization of 198 kJ/kg and a density of 810 kg/m² at 1 atm. Consider a 3-m-diameter spherical tank that is initially filled with liquid nitrogen at 1 atm and -196°C. The tank is exposed to ambient air at 15°C, with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 35 W/m?-K. The temperature of the thin-shelled spherical tank is observed to be almost the same as the temperature of the nitrogen inside.
