✦ Synopsis

A self-contained, recyclable 3He refrigerator suitable for use in zero-gravity has been developed. This refrigerator successfully flew on 5 September 1989, as part of an S-520 sounding rocket payload designed to measure the spectrum of the cosmic submillimetre background. This paper presents the cryogenic performance of the refrigerator during flight.

He3-He 4 dilution refrigerator has been constructed which circulates He 3 by using two alternately operating adsorption pumps which are in the same cryostat as the dilution refrigerator. The scheme described here organised the low temperature circulation cycle such that the construction and cryostat

A discussion is presented on the problem of choosing the lengths and the diameters of the various tubes in a He 3-He a dilution refrigeration system, which are directly connected to the mixing chamber(s). The treatment is based on recently obtained explicit solutions of the differential equations de

## Abstract A prototype Stirling cycle refrigerator employing helium as a working fluid was investigated to determine whether a freon‐free machine was a viable alternative for the current household refrigerator. A displacer‐type or β‐type Stirling cycle machine of 100‐W capacity was designed and te
