ABSTRACT
|
A
transferline with a triaxial bayonet for connecting a helium liquefier
cold box and Dewar has been conceived. Liquid helium (LHe) settles in
the Dewar vessel and the remaining cold gaseous helium (GHe) returns to
the cold-box as a part of the liquefier cycle. The two coaxial lines are
enclosed in an outermost vacuum line. These three coaxial lines come
out of the liquefier through a triaxial bayonet joint which facilitates
assembly/disassembly of the system due to the absence of welded joints.
The present paper discusses schematic, design, and working of such a
triaxial bayonet. It is conceived such that reduction in overall length,
ease of fabrication, reduction of thermal stresses due to flexibility
of bellows and reduction in fabrication cost are achieved. |
