Conventionally cryocoolers are defined as devices that are capable of reaching temperatures of 120 K or below. Among various types of cryocoolers, pulse tube cryocoolers (PTCC) have developed rapidly over the past decades. PTCC are advantageous due to the absence of moving parts at the cold end, and their miniaturization aspects. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) studies are nowadays necessary...

Joule Thomson (JT) cryocoolers are emerging as an alternative choice for cooling temperatures upto 100 K. This is enabled by using refrigerants instead of single/pure refrigerant as a working fluid. Such cryocoolers are also referred to as Mixed Refrigerants Joule-Thomson (MRJT) cryocoolers. By using mixed refrigerants, the pressure ratio in the cryocooler is reduced from an order of 100s to...

Cold end temperature of Stirling generator needs to be increased to reduce the heat sink radiator area which is limited due to the payload capacity of rocket in space application. However, the cold end temperature increase leads to the linear alternator’s overtemperature and failure consequently. A coupled Stirling Generator-Pulse Tube Cryocooler system driven by a Stirling Engine was proposed...
