The Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) Pulse Tube Cryocooler System is a two-stage pulse tube cryocooler designed to service space applications requiring simultaneous cooling of two separate optical assemblies at different temperatures, ultra-high reliability, and long lifetime. The mechanical cryocooler is a two-stage variant of the Northrop Grumman HEC (High Efficiency Cryocooler), consisting of...
Miniature coaxial pulse tube cryocoolers are widely used for cooling instruments in space science missions and military exploration fields due to their low vibration, long life, and high reliability and rapid cooling. In this study, a highly compact 0.91 kg miniature coaxial pulse tube cryocooler is developed. When the charging pressure is 4 MPa and 72 W of electrical power is inputted into...
