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.
