Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a cryogenic accumulator which is easy to process, highly resistant to vibrations and capable of controlling the internal gas by compressing rare earth elements into a predetermined capacity in sheet and storing them in a container made of a low heat conductive material by way of a distributor. CONSTITUTION:A cold heat reservoir 1, which is formed into sheet from an alloy or a chemical compound with contains cryogenic and large granular rare earth metals having large specific heat and is compressed into a predetermined capacity, is stored in a container 3 made of a plurality of low heat conductive materials by way of a distributor 2. Since a cold heat accumulator is preset so as to meet the predetermined capacity of gas contained in the cold heat reservoir based on this construction, it is easy to optimize the balance between the amount of helium to be compressed and the pressure loss. As a result, the capacity of a refrigerator can be improved.

Next, the operation will be explained. High-pressure helium gas (6) cooled to, for example, about 10 mm in the upstream ffl expansion section (not shown) is introduced from the high-temperature part boat of the container (3). The helium gas is gradually cooled to nearly 4 K and discharged from the low-temperature section boat.This helium gas is expanded in the low-temperature side 1δ1 tension section (not shown) to cool the object to be cooled (1 not shown). The distributor (2) is insulated in the axial direction and has helium gas (
Helium gas (6) of 135 bow if &, which uniformizes the flow of (6), is introduced from the low-temperature side boat and cools the regenerator material (6).

At extremely low temperatures, the specific heat of helium gas increases, so it takes a lot of time for the regenerator to perform the above operation. In order to increase the volume, if the regenerator is made larger, the volume of gas in the regenerator increases, so the pressure 1it (ffl (not shown)) increases the amount of helium gas (6) that must be compressed, increasing the efficiency of the refrigerator. For this reason, it is necessary to put the cold storage materials (13) and (14) into the container without any gaps.However, if the gaps are too closed, the pressure loss when the gas (6) flows will increase, which will reduce the efficiency. Type 5 - Conventional cryogenic regenerators use cylindrical or cylindrical regenerator materials, but rare earth materials such as G d Rh are extremely fragile and difficult to process into cylindrical or cylindrical shapes. Due to its shape, conventional regenerators have a large internal gas volume, which has the disadvantage of making it difficult to limit the volume.

In addition, vibrations and gas movement during operation cause the regenerator material to be stretched, resulting in fine powder that adheres to the seal portion of the expansion section and reduces performance.
