Summary

A thermoacoustic refrigerator using a traveling acoustic wave for heat pumping was constructed. It is composed of a linear motor, a branched tube, and a looped tube. The refrigerator is filled with 0.5 MPa nitrogen. In the looped tube, a regenerator having many narrow flow channels is placed. From the linear motor, an acoustic wave is supplied and then, the heat pumping occurs along the regenerator. The constructed refrigerator achieved the minimum temperature of -45°C and the cooling power of 18.4 W at 0°C.
