Summary

The automatic temperature control electronics for the multi-stage Stirling-type pulse tube cryocooler (SPTC) is indispensable in simultaneously maintaining steady cooling temperatures for each stage in practical applications. A novel automatic temperature control method based on expert PID/fuzzy hybrid control method is proposed and its characteristics are elaborated. The design of the control electronics is depicted and the prototype has been tested on a two-stage SPTC providing cooling at 30 K and 85 K, and a three-stage SPTC with cooling temperatures of 90 K, 40 K and 10 K at stages, both developed in the authors’ laboratory. Experimental results show that, with the novel control method and developed electronics, high temperature stability of ±0.3 K@85 K and ±0.2 K@30 K can be obtained for the two-stage SPTC and ±0.5 K@90 K, ±0.2 K@40 K, ±0.15 K@10 K are achieved for the three-stage one.
