Use of condensable working fluid component: Performance improvement in a Stirling cooler with Methane as a condensable component in Helium-Methane mixture as working fluid for refrigeration temperature about 130 K Use of condensable working fluid component: It is expected that the condensable component (Methane) will condense inside the regenerator; at the cold temperature end. The condensate will be drawn in to the expansion space along with the gaseous fluid (He) and will work as carrier fluid for the condensate. Some quantity of condensable fluid will expand isentropically to the lowest pressure level in the system; during expansion stroke of the displacer. Heat load on the condenser head causes it to evaporate in the atmosphere of carrier gas (He). The condensable component will evaporate only till the expansion space becomes saturated with the vapour.

Use of condensable working fluid component (Contd.) Performance improvement in a Stirling cooler with Methane as a condensable component in Helium-Methane mixture as working fluid for refrigeration temperature about 130 K Use of condensable working fluid component (Contd.) The isentropic expansion process will provide work output which will reduce the net work input for the system. During the return stroke of the displacer, the condensable fluid vapours will be pushed back in to the regenerator and will re-condense at the cold end of the regenerator. Due to presence of the condensable fluid vapours, the mass of carrier fluid (He) in the system reduces. This results in the reduction in contribution from expansion of gaseous fluid towards the cooling effect against the normal Stirling cycle.

When the in-situ re-condensation of Methane is considered, one of Performance improvement in a Stirling cooler with Methane as a condensable component in Helium-Methane mixture as working fluid for refrigeration temperature about 130 K Conclusions When the in-situ re-condensation of Methane is considered, one of the main options is to use the closed cycle Stirling cycle cryo-cooler. With reference to C.O.P. with Helium as the working fluid, the use of Methane-Helium mixture as the working fluid in the same cooler, without absolutely any change in hardware shows an increase in refrigeration capacity of around 180% at 130 K further increasing to more than 350% at higher refrigeration temperature of 160 K. The use of condensable fluid in a Stirling cryo-cooler for Methane or natural gas re-condensation shows great promise and that too without any hardware modifications.
