Summary

THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE A CLOSED-CYCLE LINDE-HAMPSON NITROGEN LIQUEFIER WHICH WAS DEVELOPED IN INCORPORATING A NEW, NON-CLOGGING, DEMAND-FLOW JOULE-THOMSON NOZZLE. THE FLOW AREA OF THE NOZZLE, A TAPERED ANNULAR ORIFICE, IS REGULATED BY A VERY RUGGED LOAD-SENSITIVE DIFFERENTIAL THERMAL EXPANSION SCHEME AND BY A MANUALLY ADJUSTABLE MICROMETERMECHANISM. LABYRINTH FLOW SPOILERS WITHIN THE ORIFICE PROVIDE TURBULENT VOIDS WHICH BREAK UP AND CLEAR CONTAMINANTS FROM THE FLOW.
