1 Joule-Thomson Refrigeration Sam Coogan

2 Adiabatic Expansion Many ways to have adiabatic expansion – Constant Entropy (Isentropic) – Constant Internal Energy (Free Expansion) – Constant Enthalpy (Joule-Thomson)

3 Joule-Thomson Effect Throttling process reduces pressure Caused by non-idealities Joule-Thomson Coefficient

4 Why? Cooling at very low temperatures Achievable Cryogenics Short cool down time

5 Applications Cryogenic Freezing (Cryonics) Gas liquefaction (O 2, N 2, Ar) Linde Technique (Liquefaction of Air)
