Abstract
To improve the efficiency of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) subcooled helium cryogenic system, the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP), is manufacturing a cryogenic subcooled research platform (CSRP). The CSRP system consists of a helium refrigerator with a capacity of 1200 W/4.5 K + 720 W/3 K and a distribution system that provides a supercritical forced flow cooling by using a helium circulation pump and 3 K subcooled helium generated using a two-stage cold compressor (CC) for the superconducting magnet and other devices. The distribution system not only distributes refrigeration to the cold components, but also serves as a test platform for some key equipment, such as the helium pump, CC, and venturi flow meter.
