摘要

斯特林型制冷机结构紧凑、可靠性高、制冷温区广，在低温区应用广泛。其应用场景大多严格要求恒温或不可维修，目前影响其性能的最主要因素是运行过程中工质污染导致的性能失效。本文概述了国内外对斯特林型制冷机污染失效的研究进展，归纳了污染成分与污染释放特性，重点分析了性能变化与不同污染的关系以及污染固体的分布特性。制冷机内部表面吸附的高相变点气体，在运行过程中逐渐脱附扩散，随后在机器最冷端凝华，增加流动阻力与回热损失，导致机器性能周期性波动。最后展望了亟需明确的机理与参数，为将来研制长寿命斯特林型制冷机提供了方向。

Abstract

Stirling type refrigerators are compact

highly reliable

and operate across a broad refrigeration temperature range

making them widely used in cryogenic applications. Most of their applications require strict temperature control or do not allow maintenance. At present

performance degradation caused by contamination of the working gas during operation is the primary factor limiting their performance. This paper reviews the research progress on contamination-induced failure in Stirling type refrigerators in China and abroad. It summarizes the results on contaminant species and lifetime tests. The paper focuses on the relationship between performance changes and different contaminants

and on the distribution characteristics of contaminant solids. Gases with high phase transition temperatures

adsorbed on the internal surfaces of the refrigerator

gradually desorb and diffuse during operation. Then they desublimate at the coldest end of the machine

which increases flow resistance and regenerator loss and leads to periodic performance fluctuations. Finally

it points out the mechanisms and parameters that still need to be clarified

and provides guidance for the future development of long-life Stirling type refrigerators.
