Thermal Performance of the Texas Instruments 1-W Linear Drive Cryocooler

The efficiency, of the electronics plays a large part in determining the overall spacecraft power requirements to operate the cooler as well as determining the thermal dissipation characteristics of the various electrical components. The results of all the performance measurements are presented in the paper.

Development of a Periodic 10 K Sorption Cryocooler

The design and fabrication of a small, closed-cycle, periodic 10 K sorption cyrocooler laboratory system is described. The cooler is designed to provide cooldown from 60 to <10 K in under 2 minutes, maintain a simulated detector heat load of 100 mW below 10 K for over 10 minutes, and have the ability to be recycled in under 6 hours.
