Abstract

The space-cycle averaged Nusselt number is used to characterize the heat transfer characteristics of cold end heat exchanger in cryocoolers working with cryogenic oscillating helium flow. An experimental setup for cryogenic oscillating flow heat transfer measurement was designed and established. According to the experimental data obtained, it is evident that low temperature is significantly disadvantageous for heat transfer in oscillating flow. Similar to the experimental results at room temperature, under different mass flow rates, the heat exchanger has its own corresponding optimal Reynolds number at certain temperature for maximized heat transfer capacity.
