Stable operation of helium cryogenic system and low heat loads are of paramount importance. In order to achieve the required pressure stability and heat loads, all sources of possible disturbances have to be eliminated at the design phase and latest during the commissioning activities. One of such disturbances is thermally driven oscillations (TAO), which could occur when a local heat source...
Cryogenic valves are indispensable components for the reliable operation and controlling of cryogenic facilities. The key controlling components are cryogenic valves, which are used to regulate the flow of cryogenic fluids or to liquefy gases. Helium cryogenics typically has additional requirements, for example, very low heat loads, high leakage tightness, etc, which leads to specialized...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) cryogenic desublimation separation is an emerging contamination-free carbon capture method. Solid CO2 as an important industrial product is widely used in many fields. So far, there have been few investigations focusing on the detailed desublimation characteristics of CO2 due to the difficulty of visual experiments under low temperatures and the challenge of controlling...
A novel fruit peeling method based on cryogenic treatment is proposed. And a corresponding cryogenic equipment has been developed. The principle of cryogenic peeling is that the expansion coefficient of fruit and peel is different at low temperature. Compared with the conventional chemical peeling methods, cryogenic treatment peeling is a treatment method that does not contaminate foods. For...
