✦ Synopsis

The aim was to provide a wide range of thermal and flow regimes necessary for experiments on HeII hydrodynamics and heat transfer as well as to test the realistic cryogenic equipment. The cryoblock is added to the 300 W / 4.5 K helium refrigerator to fulfil this task. This cryoblock contains series of heat exchangers and two liquid helium baths at the temperature 16vels of 3.0 K and 1.8 K. The paper presents the design of units, details of construction, preliminary results of operation, and planned experiments.

It should be noted that the mesh regenerators used in Reference 1 achieved a minimum temperature not lower than 40 K and a net refrigeration power of ~ 3 W at 77 K. On the contrary, our experimental data have shown that the single stage regenerator, suitably hybridized, can attain minimum temperatur
