摘要
The shock compression experiment of liquid helium is an available way to gain properties of specimen at high temperatures and pressures.Based on Fluent,a thermal insulation analysis and design of a liquid helium temperature target in the environment condition of 100 Pa for shock compression experiment is performed.Then,a cryogenic target with a 10 K helium vapor shield and a separated vacuum interval is particularly developed.A lowest temperature of 3.63 K and a stable temperature of 3.70 K in the specimen cavity with an accuracy of 0.1 K are obtained by means of continuous flow and vacuum cooling.Both time-consuming and temperature stability are well-suited to the requirements of the shock compression experiment.The results show that the calculated and experimental data well-matched each other.The simulation method may be effective and feasible for the optimal design of the cryogenic target.
The shock compression experiment of liquid helium is an available way to gain properties of specimen at high temperatures and pressures. Based on Fluent, a thermal insulation analysis and design of a liquid helium temperature target in the environment condition of 100 Pa for shock compression experiment is performed. Then, a cryogenic target with a 10 K helium vapor shield and a separated vacuum interval is particularly developed. A lowest temperature of 3.63 K and a stable temperature of 3.70 K in the specimen cavity with an accuracy of 0.1 K are obtained by means of continuous flow and vacuum cooling. Both time-consuming and temperature stability are well-suited to the requirements of the shock compression experiment. The results show that the cal- culated and experimental data well-matched each other. The simulation method may be effective and feasible for the optimal design of the cryogenic target.
