Investigation of Regenerators and Pulse Tube Cryogenic Coolers

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0725514 | Open PDF

Abstract:

A program was conducted to investigate the design and testing of regenerators for cryogenic coolers, and to performance test a new pulse tube design configuration. A regenerator test station for studying and testing regenerators was constructed which includes the potential to study regenerators at liquid helium temperature. Testing was conducted at 77 deg K. A new single stage pulse tube, with a concentric configuration, was designed and fabricated.
