Abstract
An experimental study was carried out to improve the cooling capacity and performance of the pulse tube refrigerator. Three buffer pulse tube refrigerator was designed and fabricated, and the experimental apparatus operating process of the therr buffer pulse tube refrigerator and results obtained with the performance test. The cooldown characteristics and load characteristics are described. The lowest temperature measured in the three buffer pulse tube refrigerator was 88K and the cooling capacity at the optimum operating condition was 27 W at 120K.
