Computer-aided design of nitrogen-free helium cryostats

Novel computer-aided technique for optimization of the cryogenic storage system performances is proposed. A new method of optimization, i.e., rotating coordinates (MRCs) with random search is applied and the parameters of cryogenic storage vessels are computed. The optimum geometric sizes of the sys...

Summary:Novel computer-aided technique for optimization of the cryogenic storage system performances is proposed. A new method of optimization, i.e., rotating coordinates (MRCs) with random search is applied and the parameters of cryogenic storage vessels are computed. The optimum geometric sizes of the system and a set of possible materials for its manufacturing are defined on the basis of the computation results. The developed software for computer design of cryogenic system is created on Microsoft C for MS DOS. The results of computation are analyzed in comparison with experimental data.
