(4) when sample temperature reaches 5K or so, cryogenic globe valve is closed, opens throttle valve and vacuum pump, liquid helium is carried out Cooling, until superfluid helium temperature is stablized near 1.8K in superfluid helium pond.
(5) liquid helium amount in liquid helium bath is monitored, throttle valve opening is adjusted, is equal to high-purity helium liquefaction amount by throttle valve Liquid helium amount, and the evaporation capacity for being equal to superfluid helium in superfluid helium pond can be connected with realizing that helium gas-liquid can be converted and be recycled in equipment The continuous continuous acquisition for carrying out superfluid helium.
(6) temperature of superfluid helium and cooled sample in temperature, liquid level and the pressure and superfluid helium pond of liquid helium bath are monitored Temperature.
It is provided by the invention using refrigeration machine as the sub-cooled equipment of cold source in conjunction with above content, it can be quick by pre-cooling Obtain 1.8K superfluid helium using room temperature high-purity helium, the sample pre-coo time that is cooled is short, convenient to the device for needing extremely low temperature It is rapidly cooled;And by once supplying, helium gas-liquid can be converted and be recycled in equipment, can continuously be surpassed The acquisition of helium is flowed, stable cooling capacity is provided for cooled sample, has saved helium resource, avoided the fluctuation due to temperature, shadow Ring the stability and accuracy of cooled sample low temperature test.And sub-cooled equipment provided by the invention also has artificially Operation requires low, and easy to operate and safe reliable, liquid helium stores the advantages such as difficulty is small.
Obviously, the above embodiment of the present invention be only to clearly illustrate example of the present invention, and not be pair The restriction of embodiments of the present invention may be used also on the basis of the above description for those of ordinary skill in the art To make other variations or changes in different ways, all embodiments can not be exhaustive here, it is all to belong to this hair The obvious changes or variations that bright technical solution is extended out are still in the scope of protection of the present invention.
