Project Operator National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC)
Project Host 蔡黃修
Summary
"This technology for the liquid helium phase separator consists of a refrigerator, heat exchange unit, radiation shield, and storage tank.

	Core Technology: Utilizes the low-temperature environment provided by the refrigerator to condense helium gas through the heat exchange unit.
	Heat Load Reduction: The system is designed to minimize heat load, thereby improving the efficiency of liquid helium storage.
	Recondensation: When helium gas vaporizes, the system recondenses it into liquid helium.
