Design of the Linear Compressor Stirling Cryocooler

Linear compressor 스터링 냉동기 설계에 관한 연구

This paper presents operating process and design method on the linear compressor Stirling cryocooler for cooling infrared detector. The free piston-type Stirling cryocooler, which applies 1) the Stirling cycle for refrigeration, 2) linear motors for driving, 3) flexure bearings for support systems, and 4) fine gap for clearance seals, is the most suitable design for a mechanical cryocooler utilized in a night vision environment.
