Tubes à pulsion et froid.

A review of pulse tube refrigeration.

Auteurs : RICHARDSON R. N., EVANS B. E.

Type d'article : Article, Article de la RIF

Résumé

The pulse tube belongs to the class of miniature cryogenic refrigerators usually referred to as cryocoolers. In common with Stirling and Gifford-McMahon machines, operation depends on a regenerative gas expansion cycle but unlike these coolers the pulse tube has no moving parts at low temperature and hence offers the potential for high reliability. Although comparisons may be drawn between the operation of a pulse tube and that of a Stirling cooler, the exact nature of the working cycle is far from clear and the device continues to intrigue. The authors provide here an introduction to the device and attempt to explain its operation as a conventional second law system.
