CONTINUOUS LEVEL SENSORS FOR CRYOGENIC LIQUIDS USING HIGH-CRITICAL TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTORS.

Author(s) : SIEGMANN S.

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE AUTHORS HAVE DEVELOPED A DEVICE USING HIGH-TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTING SENSORS FOR THE CONTINUOUS DETECTION AND CONTROL OF THE LEVEL OF CRYOGENIC LIQUIDS WITH BOILING TEMPERATURES OF UP TO 90 K. THE SENSORS CONTAIN MATERIAL OF LANTHANUM (BARIUM, STRONTIUM) COPPER OR YTTRIUM-BARIUM-COPPER OXIDES WITH SUPERCONDUCTING TRANSITION TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 20 AND 90 K. FOR THE FIRST TIME, CONTINUOUS LEVEL MEASUREMENTS BECOME POSSIBLE IN OPEN CRYOSTATS OF, EG, LIQUID NITROGEN OVER A LENGTH OF 1 M.
