Palo Alto, CA 94304, U.S.A. Ray Radebaugh Thermophysics Division National Institute of Standards and Technology Boulder, CO 80303, U.S.A. ABSTRACT The Stirling Refrigerator Performance Model (SRPM) has been validated extensively against the Lockheed built Stirling Coolers and various units in the literature. This model has been modified to predict the performance of the Pulse Tube Coolers (PTCs). It was successfully validated against a Lockheed in-house-built PTC. The results are to be published elsewhere1. In this paper, the validation of PTRM against a NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) orifice pulse tube cooler is reported. Dimensions and operating condition of the PTC were obtained from NIST without prior knowledge of the performance. In other word, this is a 'blind test' on the PTRM with the help of the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Good correlation was found between the test data and the prediction. PTRM is a generic model that gives accurate performance prediction of the pulse tube coolers. Download this Paper Do You Know Someone Who Needs A Job in Engineering, Physics or Chemistry?
