Measurement and Correlation of Directional Permeability and Forchheimer's Inertial Coefficient of Micro Porous Structures Used in Pulse Tube Cryocoolers

The operation of pulse tube cryocoolers (PTCs) is based on complicated and poorly-understood solid-fluid interactions involving periodic flows of a cryogenic fluid in a flow loop that includes components filled with micro porous structures. CFD simulation is the current trend in modeling of pulse-tu...
