Abstract:
A cryogenic refrigerator operating on the Split-Sterling cycle principle is disclosed. The refrigerator has a seal-less expander and achieves efficient operation without the use of external control apparatus. This is accomplished by sizing the expander so that two pressure differential forces developed across a displacer in the expander are approximately equal in magnitude. For efficient operation, the expander's gas flow rate is selected to provide the proper time delay between the two pressure differential forces.
