Definitions
- the invention concerns a cryostat configuration, with at least one cryostat, which has at least one first chamber with supercooled liquid helium having a temperature of less than 4 K and at least one further chamber, which contains liquid helium at essentially atmospheric pressure having a temperature of approximately 4.2 K, wherein a Joule-Thomson valve is disposed in the first chamber, the first chamber being separated from the further chamber by a thermally insulating barrier, wherein helium from the first or the further chamber expands through the Joule-Thomson valve into a pump-off pipe, which is in thermal contact with the helium of the first chamber and supercools the latter, and wherein the pump-off pipe is directly or indirectly in thermal contact with the further chamber during its further progression and is then connected to the inlet of a pump.
- cryostat configuration is known from DE 40 39 365 C2 (U.S. Pat. No. 5,220,800).
- Magnet systems for magnetic resonance equipment are subject to the highest achievable demands in terms of the magnetic field strengths and homogeneity.
- the superconducting magnet coils only require energy during the charging phase and produce a high magnetic field in short-circuited operation for a long time after the power supply has been disconnected. Decay times until half the original field strength is reached are around 5000 years for modern superconducting magnets. This means that, in short-circuited operation over a period of hours and days, practically no change occurs in the magnetic field strength.
- a cryostat that has two concentric helium tanks, one nesting inside the other.
- a filling pipe for liquid helium leads to the inner tank so that the liquid helium can be moved from the outer to the inner tank.
- the helium is pumped off down to a pressure of 40 mbar and thus cooled down to a temperature of 2.3 K.
- a further disadvantage is that no means are provided to lower the helium consumption required to operate this equipment, with the result that both enormous operating costs are incurred and only relatively short intervals between liquid helium refills are achieved, except in cases where it is in any event necessary to constantly fill the equipment with fresh helium during operation.
- a thermally insulating barrier not only prevents convection between the two chambers but, to a great extent, also heat transfer by thermal conduction from one chamber to the other.
- the barrier consists of two plates separated by a vacuum and consisting of a poorly thermally conducting material, such as stainless steel or plastic. The vacuum insulation prevents heat exchange between the upper and the lower reservoir.
- an electric heating element is disposed in the further chamber usually in addition to the thermal insulation.
- the vacuum is part of the single vacuum part of the cryostat, so that the barrier does not have to be separately evacuated.
- the electrical supply cables to the magnetic system and the supply cables for liquid helium are routed inside through the conduit passing through the tower or towers.
- This hollow conduit design results in a dual cryostat that can be used both at 4.2 K under normal pressure and in vacuum operation in the range, for example, from 1.8 K to 2.3 K.
- the cryostat In both operating modes, the cryostat has low-loss properties because, irrespective of the proportion of the helium flow that is pumped off and evaporates, the total enthalpy in both gas flows is essentially passed to the shield system of the cryostat.
- the cryostat contains two chambers with helium at two different temperature levels, there are two exhaust gas flows at different pressure levels.
- One exhaust gas flow arises due to the helium evaporating from the further chamber at atmospheric pressure; the second exhaust gas flow is formed by the helium pumped off through the refrigerator under a pressure of approx. 40 mbar.
- the two exhaust gas flows have different strengths, and the exhaust gas flow from the further chamber may even cease altogether.
- the enthalpy contained in the exhaust gas be utilized as-completely as possible.
- the object of this invention is to lower the helium consumption and therefore the operating costs still further as compared to prior art, while keeping the pressure in the first chamber as constant as possible.
- the object is inventively achieved by fluidically connecting the outlet of the pump and/or an outlet for evaporating helium of the or of at least one of the cryostats through a cryogen pipe with the further chamber, and providing the cryogen pipe with a branch-off device, which returns a partial current of the helium located in the cryogen pipe into the further chamber.
- the inventive cryostat configuration leads part of the helium into the first chamber.
- the helium is re-condensed in the cryogen pipe, which becomes increasingly colder inside the cryostat.
- the thermal energy of the helium is brought into the further chamber, making a heating element superfluous.
- the helium for re-condensation can originate from the same cryostat, into which the partial current is to be returned. This would be the case, for example, if only one cryostat were present. However, in a configuration having multiple cryostats, it is conceivable for the evaporated or pumped-off helium of one or more further cryostats to be input into one of the cryostats for re-condensation.
- One especially preferred embodiment is characterized in that a pressure regulating device is provided, which keeps the pressure in the further chamber constant.
- a pressure regulating device is provided, which keeps the pressure in the further chamber constant.
- This could be implemented, for example, using an actively or a passively regulated valve on the cryogen pipe.
- a constant pressure is indispensable for an even temperature distribution and especially important for highly sensitive NMR measurements.
- a heating device is provided in the further chamber.
- the necessary heat input into the further chamber can only be achieved by the helium supplied to the cryostat, embodiments are conceivable in which pressure regulation is achieved by means of the evaporation rate of the helium from the further chamber.
- the pressure regulating device sets the pressure in the further chamber to a settable target pressure that is greater than or equal to the ambient pressure of the cryostat configuration.
- the pressure regulating device sets the pressure in the further chamber to a defined positive pressure above atmospheric pressure.
- cryogen pipe has at least one relief valve and/or at least one bursting disk. This ensures controlled pressure reduction in the event of an unexpected large increase in pressure.
- cryogen pipe contains a buffer vessel for the provision of an additional volume for the flowing helium.
- a reserve volume is constituted in case more helium has to be supplied to the cryostat.
- the buffer volume is also an additional means of keeping the pressure constant.
- cryogen pipe has at least one filtering device for separating off impurities in the helium.
- Impurities that enter the first chamber can constitute significant heat input.
- solids and frozen matter can be deposited, narrowing or even blocking pipes and valves. For that reason, the helium used must be of high purity.
- the partial flow returned into the further chamber comprises between 20% and 80%, preferably between 25% and 60% of the total helium flow conveyed through the pump.
- helium is input into the cryogen pipe from at least one further, physically separate cryostat.
- This embodiment is especially advantageous if multiple cryostats are installed in a place of work, such as a research institute.
- the evaporating helium from one cryostat can, for example, be input into another cryostat and cooled in the manner described.
- a preferred embodiment is characterized in that a superconducting magnet coil is disposed in the first chamber.
- cryostat configuration is part of NMR, MRI, or FTMS equipment.
- the equipment comprises an ultrahigh-resolution high-field NMR spectrometer with a proton resonance frequency ⁇ 800 MHz.
- the first chamber and the further chamber can be disposed either one above the other or side by side.

- the helium evaporated from the further cryostat 32 can now partially be input into the first cryostat 31 with supercooled helium.
- the partial flow input into the first cryostat 31 now no longer has to be condensed by the condenser 39 , whereby the latter is offloaded and can be rated for a smaller capacity.

- FIG. 4 illustrates an embodiment of an inventive cryostat configuration 40 , in which multiple further cryostats 42 are connected to a cryogen pipe 45 constituted as a manifold.
