Good point, are you thinking of frost buildup on electrical connections? where should I look for moisture traces? or are you thinking that moisture traces in the ceramic could damage the heater when frozen?
I think the boiling effect is what I was hoping for. My plan was to place the heater at...
Are you thinking that nickel-chromium wire would become a super conductor at LN2 temperatures?
From what I can see, super conducting occurs only in special alloys (niobium-titanium or niobium-tin) at very low temperatures (~10K), which is why liquid helium is used (liquid at ~4K) not LN2...
Hi Everyone,
I'm working on a prototype for a LN2 evaporator and am thinking of using an immersed electric heating element (cartirdge heater style: nichrome element in ceramic matrix encased in stainless steel). I am wanting to input ~100W at 110V AC.
From the research I have done it looks...
I have very little cryogenic experience and I'm trying to find a well insulated hose that will remain very flexible at cryogenic temperatures.
I'm trying to supply roughly 0.5 CFM of nitrogen gas at about 100K and atmospheric pressure to a cryostat device. I was thinking that hose with ~1/2" ID...
