Résumé

Closed cycle 4He sorption refrigerators are an increasingly popular choice for remote cryogenic operations. The presence of a superfluid film on the inner walls of the evaporation pot limits their performance. The authors present a simple model of the gas, film, and heat flow in a 4He sorption refrigerator, taking into account the effects of an orifice to limit superfluid film flow. The model serves as a useful guideline for optimizing cryogenic performance. They also present a diagram of hold time vs. steady state temperature as a function of the radius of the orifice and compare the model to measurements. [Reprinted with permission from Elsevier.
