Summary

DESPITE ITS OVERALL ATTRACTIVENESS, THE BASIC JT CYCLE REQUIRES MORE INPUT POWER THAN COMPETING CYCLES. TO OVERCOME THIS DISADVANTAGE, THE AUTHOR HELPED DESIGN A HYBRID CRYOCOOLER THAT USES THERMOELECTRIC COOLERS COMBINED WITH A COUNTERFLOW HEAT EXCHANGER TO ASSIST THE JT PROCESS. THE RESULT IS A HYBRID COOLER WITH POWER PERFORMANCE AS GOOD OR BETTER THAN COMPETING CYCLES.
