ShareThermoacoustic refrigerator for space applications.
Author(s) : GARRETT S. L., ADEFF J. A., HOFLER T. J.
Type of article: Article
Summary
A new spacecraft cryocooler which uses resonant high-amplitude sound waves in inert gases to pump heat is described. The phasing of thermoacoustic cycle is provided by thermal conduction. This "natural" phasing allows the entire refrigerator to operate with only one moving part (the loudspeaker diaphragm).
