The cryogenic vessel, storing a liquified solutions as LOX and $LN_2$, consists of a external vessel, internal vessel, thermal insulator and internal support. The internal support should be satisfied with mechanical strength not only to support weight of internal tank but also to maintain uniform space between external and internal tank in spite of external mechanical shock. However, excessive structure design of internal supports is able to increase the amount of heat conduction and the rate of vaporization. The thermal insulator, filled with space between a external and internal vessel, reduces the rate of heat transfer and guarantees the standing time of cryogenic vessel. Especially powder type of insulator has low thermal conductivity and reduce the specification of structure design. In order to evaluate the effect of insulator on structure design, the experiment set-up simulated cryogenic vessel was tested in shock environment according to thermal insulator. As a result, the behavior of internal support under external shock was understood and the design criteria was able to be suggested.
