Two-stage double-inlet pulse tube refrigerator down to 10 K.

Summary

A two-stage pulse-tube refrigerator, driven by a 6 kilowatt Gifford-McMahon compressor and solenoid valves, has been developed and tested successfully. The first stage, when operated separately as double inlet system, achieved more than 30 watts at 80 K. Using a copper block for the interstage coupling, a second-stage double-inlet pulse tube has been placed at the cold end of this pulse tube. First measurements with the two-stage double-inlet system showed a no-load minimum temperature of 14.3 K and a cooling power of 1 watt at 19 K.
