Simplified heat engine

In Sterling-cycle heat engine, pneumatic system is used to drive displacer/regenerator, eliminating mechanical linkages and valves

Highly stable microwave delay line

TWM /Traveling Wave Master/ comb structure serves as a highly stable microwave delay line for determining the short-term stability of the hydrogen maser frequency standards used in the deep space network. Cryogenic cooling is used to minimize signal attenuation and thermal noise

Improved cryogenic refrigeration system

Two-position shuttle valve simplifies valving arrangement and crank-shaft configuration in gas-balancing and Stirling-cycle refrigeration systems used to produce temperatures below 173 degrees K. It connects the displacer and regenerator alternately to the supply line or the return line of the compressor, and establishes constant pressure on the drive piston

Refrigeration apparatus Patent

Method and apparatus for producing very low temperature refrigeration based on gas pressure balanc

Centrifugal-reciprocating compressor

A centrifugal compressor is described which includes at least one pair of cylinders arranged in coaxial alignment and supported for angular displacement about a common axis of rotation normally disecting a common longitudinal axis of symmetry for the cylinders. The cylinders are characterized by ported closures located at the mutually remote ends thereof through which the cylinders are charged and discharged, and a pair of piston heads seated within the cylinders and supported for floating displacement in compressive strokes in response to unidirectional angular displacement imparted to the cylinders

The superconducting cavity-stabilized maser oscillator

The possibility of integrating a superconducting cavity with a traveling wave maser is explored to obtain a frequency standard with very high spectral purity

The application of masers to physical measurements

Traveling wave maser for direct measurement of changes in ruby spin temperature for various perturbation
