Combined Cold Compressor/Ejector Helium Refrigerator Cycle

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Cryogenic Engineering ((ACRE,volume 29))

Abstract

In recent years there has been increasing interest in raising refrigeration efficiency and capacity in cycles which produce cooling below 4.2 K. It is, of course, desirable to be able to produce the required subatmospheric pressure efficiently in the system.

Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Dept. of Energy.
