Summary

THE INTEREST OF THE ORIFICE IN A PULSE TUBE IS TO EVACUATE MORE HEAT THAN IN A BASIC PULSE TUBE AND CONSEQUENTLY TO INCREASE THE COLD POWER. THE PAPER DESCRIBES AN HYBRID SYSTEM (BOTH BASIC AND ORIFICE PULSE TUBE) WHICH PERMITS TO OBTAIN A VERY GOOD EFFICIENCY: 57 K COLD TEMPERATURE WITH A 12 WATT COLD POWER AT 72 K. THE RESULT IS A 40% OF CARNOT EFFICIENCY WHEN THE REGENERATOR LOSSES ARE NOT NEGLECTED.
