A highly efficient 100-liters/hour class helium liquefier system.

Summary

A new helium liquefier system has been designed and built to provide over 100 liters per hour with a highly efficient process cycle. The modified Claude-cycle utilizes four reciprocating piston expansion engines configured in series, with the lowest temperature engine acting as a wet expander (replacing the usual Joule-Thomson valve).
