Abstract

A micro coaxial pulse tube cryocooler has been developed for infrared detection. This paper presents the experimental data of performance and describes the optimization process of a pulse tube cryocooler in detail. With a tiny size and high frequency, this cryocooler is driven by the linear compressor. The combination of inertance tube and buffer is adopted as phase shifter. The effect of the structure and operating parameters on cooling performance are investigated through experiments. As a result, the regenerator has a dimension of 40 mm length, and the optimal frequency is 175 Hz. It can provide a cooling power of 0.5 W at 80 K with a 30 W input electric power and 0.8 W at 150 K with a 10 W input electric power.
