Summary

A new type series inertance tube pulse tube refrigerator is introduced. It includes series cold heads. Each cold head's pulse tube connects an inertance tube as phase shifter. The acoustic power of the first pulse tube is partially used by the first inertance tube for phase shifting, while the remaining is used for generating additional cooling power. It is high efficiency with multi refrigeration temperature. A two-dimensional axisymmetric model was introduced for simulation by the commercial CFD software ANSYS Fluent. The numerical results show that it has high potential for getting higher efficiency. A protype series inertance tube pulse tube refrigerator was made and tested. Its efficiency is higher than the ordinary inertance tube pulse tube refrigerator at higher temperature range. At 232K, the efficiency is increased by 10%. The results show that it is valuable for further development.
