Eric Alar Master’s Student Mechanical Engineering Room: 1337 ERB Alar@wisc.edu 414-840-2798 Hometown: Milwaukee, WI Thesis: The Time Response and Heat Capacity of Pulse Tube Cryocooler Regenerator Helium-Adsorbed Plates
Motivation: Creare Inc Motivation: Creare Inc. has an ONR contract to develop a new microchannel regenerator with adsorbed helium, or MIRAH plates. These could be a significant improvement to current regenerators used in cryogenics.
Carry out the test for Creare Inc. Objectives: Prove that a difference exists between MIRAH and traditional rare earth metal regenerators Build a test facility capable of measuring a time response difference between the two types of regenerators Carry out the test for Creare Inc. Dewar
The test facility is currently being constructed…
