ShareSummary
A mechanical support system is described for a space-borne helium 3 refrigerator. Measurements of the Young's modulus, tensile strength, creep and thermal conductivity of Kevlar cords at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures are discussed and used to predict the performance of the system. Results of vibration tests of the mechanical support are compared with these predictions.
