Abstract

The application discloses a continuously-operated multistage extremely-low-temperature adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration system, which comprises multistage adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators, a cold quantity transmission structure, a temperature control unit, a buffer cavity, a staged heat connection structure and a heat sink. The multistage adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators are arranged between the heat sink and the temperature control unit, and the refrigeration paths of the multistage adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators are formed by the on-off of the heat switches to realize step-by-step temperature reduction. The cold quantity transmission structure transmits the cold quantity generated by the multistage adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators to the temperature control unit. The temperature control unit is encapsulated with a low-temperature working medium, and the low-temperature working medium is phase-changed in the temperature control unit to realize cold quantity buffering and continuous refrigeration output through the latent heat of phase change. The buffer cavity is communicated with the temperature control unit and is used for buffering the gas-phase pressure fluctuation of the low-temperature working medium. The staged heat connection structure is connected with the communicating pipe through a heat exchanger to form a heat exchange connection, so that the heat conduction and heat leakage of the communicating pipe from the high-temperature side to the temperature control unit are reduced. The application can obtain a lower refrigeration temperature through the multistage adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators, and can convert the intermittent cold quantity in the adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration process into a continuous and stable cold quantity output through the temperature control unit. The application has the advantages of low refrigeration temperature, continuous operation, good temperature control stability and small parasitic heat leakage.
