Abstract
In a general GM type orifice pulse tube refrigerator, there are two short periods during which both the high pressure valve and the low pressure valve are closed in one cycle. We call the short period `waiting time'. The pressure differences across the high pressure valve and the low pressure valve are decreased by using long waiting time. The pressure difference loss is decreased. Thus, the cooling capacity and the efficiency are increased, and the no-load temperature is decreased. The mechanism of the waiting time is discussed with numerical analysis and verified by experiments. Experiments show that there is an optimum waiting time for the no-load temperature, the cooling capacity and the efficiency, respectively. The no-load temperature of 40.3 K was achieved with a 90° waiting time. The cooling capacity of 58 W at 80 K was achieved with a 60° waiting time. The no-load temperature of 45.1 K and the cooling capacity of 45 W at 80 K were achieved with a 1° waiting time.
