小型冷凍を用いたヘリウム液化機/再凝縮装置

抄録

This is a review of compact liquefaction/recondensation equipment with cryocoolers, namely, GM-coolers and pulse tube cryocoolers. The improvement of liquefaction performance is remarkable since the advent of the 4-K pulse tube cryocooler. This article describes a brief history about 4-K cryocoolers and their liquefaction performance. Additionally, commercialized helium gas liquefaction/recondensation systems with cryocoolers are introduced and those specifications are shown.
