This paper describes an experimental study on the inertance pulse tube refrigerator using a small compressor. The purpose of this experimental study is to identify the performance of the inertance pulse tube refrigerator for various operating conditions and to obtain the optimum configuration. The dead volume effect is verified by two experimental apparatuses with different dead volumes between the compressor and the aftercooler. The refrigerator of the smaller dead volume shows better performance. The influence of operating frequency and charging pressure on the performance of the refrigerator is experimentally investigated. Reducing the regenerator mesh size improves the performance of the refrigerator. Finally, the inertance pulse tube refrigerator has maximum cooling capacity at the specific combination of the pulse tube length and the inertance tube length. The loss analysis is used to analyze and predict the optimum condition of the pulse tube refrigerator.

This paper describes the effect of rotating frequency on the pulse tube of Stirling type pulse tube refrigerator. Various conditions were analyzed by two-dimensional analysis with several dominant non-dimensional parameters. With the additional pressure term influenced by centrifugal force in rotating condition, the linearized conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy of the gas were solved to obtain the first order variables and calculate the enthalpy flow in rectangular coordinates. The rotational effect in pulse tube for the refrigerator's performance were quantitatively evaluated. According to the first order analysis, the enthalpy flow decreases with the rotating speed.

lower vibration than in any other small refrigerators. The experimental results of three types of pulse tube refrigerators are presented in this paper. The objectives of this study are to develop the design technology of the double inlet pulse tube refrigerator and acquire its application method. As a preliminary experiment, the refrigeration performances of the basic, orifice and double inlet pulse tube refrigerator were investigated. The lowest temperature obtained in this experiment was 34.4K. The refrigeration capacity at the optimum operating condition of the double inlet pulse tube refrigerator was 23W at 80K.

In this paper, the inertance tube is modeled by the distributed impedance model. This model is verified by the analytical solutions for the long tube without the reservoir. In this model the distributed impedace effect of the inertance tube is included and mass flow rate and pressure distributions are calculated along the inertance tube for various inertance tube lengths. Mass flow rate at the inlet of the inertance tube is also calculated by this model and compared to the lumped impedance method. Mass flow rate by the distributed model shows quite different behaviors from the lumped model when the operating frequency is high and the length of the tube becomes large.

Cooling with easy, reliable cryocooler is highly desirable for the commercial and military application The pulse tube refrigerator has no moving parts at the cold end, so that the mechanical vibration and magnetic noise can be reduced to the low level with higher relaibility and longer lifetime than the Stilting cryocooler. The inertance tube improve the performance of pulse tube refrigerator by providing optimal phase shift between pressure and amss flow rate, and it is easiest to implement at large cooling capacity and high operating frequency. In this study, the performance of the inertance pulse tube refrigerator was investigated by analysis. The results show the influence of the diameter and length of the inertance tube on the performance of the refrigerator.

A free piston and free displacer (FPFD) Stirling cryocooler and inertance pulse tube cryocooler for the cooling infrared detector and cryosensor are currently under development at Korea Institute of Machinery ＆ Materials. The pulse tube cryocooler, which has no moving parts at its cold section, is attractive for obtaining higher reliability, simpler construction and lower vibration than in any other small cryocoolers. In recent years, pulse tube cryocoolers have experienced a rapid development with the aim to eventually replace Stirling and Gifford-McMahon cryocoolers in various applications. In this study, operating characteristics of the conventional linear Stirling cryocooler was investigated by experiment. And, inertance pulse tube cryocooler with the commercial linear compressor(Leybold Polar) was designed, manufactured, and tested by the variations of the operating frequency, charging pressure and input power.

This paper describes experimental study on GM-type pulse tube refrigerator with neon as a working fluid instead of helium. Neon gas has similar compression characteristics with helium gas because it is a monoatoimc gas. In experiments, a cooling performance test was performed with same compressor and pulse tube refrigerator for neon and helium as working gas. From experimental results, a PTR with neon show the improved cooling performance than a PTR with helium. Cooling performance and operating characteristics of a PTR were discussed and compared for two different working gas.
