Cold Vacuum Compressor for RHIC Helium Refrigerator
- Brookhaven National Lab. (BNL), Upton, NY (United States)
The RHIC 24.8 kilowatt refrigerator was originally designed for ISABELLE with the low pot, a liquid helium vessel in cold box5, to be operated at 0.1 atm pressure for 2.49 K. A four stage cold vacuum compressor was built to pump helium vapor from 0.095 to 1.4 atm. The RHIC cryogenic system is designed for 4.6 K operating temperature with 0.92 atm pressure in the low pot. This report presents the latest requirement for the cold vacuum compressor.
