Multilayer insulation is considered the most potential heat insulation material in cryogen storage. Various heat transfer analyses have been carried out and the results have been compared with the experiments. However, boundary temperatures of the experiments are certain values due to the limitation of the testing apparatus using cryogen. Therefore, for practical engineering design purpose, a...
Thermal radiation properties of materials are essential for the design of cryogenic apparatus. While the experimental data of the emissivity of materials are not sufficient, especially at cryogenic temperature. In this paper, a home built apparatus based on a two-stage Gifford McMahon crycooler for rapid emissivity measurement was present. Emissivity of materials can be measured rapidly from...
Future accelerators like the Future Circular Collider (FCC) under study at CERN, will be considerably larger than the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) presently in operation, with consequent increasing demands for cryogenically efficient cryostat solutions. MLI insulating systems remain the technology of choice for large accelerators due to the compromise they offer between thermal performance and...
