TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a CLHP using methane as working fluid operating at 100 −190 K was investigated, and its thermal performance including the supercritical startup, heat transport capacity under different heat sink, power cycling characteristics, temperature hysteresis phenomenon and thermal resistance variation, was experimentally investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, two nitrogen-charged CLHPs were employed to provide cryocooling at 80-100 K. The authors focused on the supercritical startup of the CLHP with redundancy design, and an extensive experimental study under four possible working modes was conducted.

TL;DR: In this article, extensive experimental studies on the supercritical startup and heat transport capability of a neon-charged CLHP integrated with a G-M cryocooler were carried out, where the effects of the auxiliary heat load applied to the secondary evaporator and charged pressure of the working fluid were investigated.

TL;DR: In this paper, 3D printing technology and phase change material (PCM) were combined into a thermal energy storage (TES) system, which could fulfill the requirements of light weight and high thermal conductivity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combined 3D printing and thermal energy storage (TES) technology to address the temperature control of the star senor baffle, which was 3D printed using aluminum with lattice structure, and tetradecane was chosen as the phase change material (PCM) for thermal storage.
