Abstract:Heat exchangers (HEX) are the backbone of almost all thermodynamic cycles. In cryogenics they are a demanding technological brick and their effectiveness can be a cornerstone for the performance of an entire system. A highly effective counter-flow heat exchanger (CFHEX) plays a crucial role in systems that are based on fluid circulation. Such systems enable cooling in the range between ≈ 2.5 W and several Watt at 4.5 K, which is above the cooling power range of an individual small-scale cooling source (e.g. cr… Show more
