Analyses, design and realization of thermal systems.

DEMCON kryoz delivers innovative cooling solutions. We have extensive experience and know-how on cooling-system design and hardware. Our services stretch from creating cooling solutions using mechanical (Stirling/Pulse tube), Joule-Thomson and thermoelectric coolers to cryostats/dewars, heat exchanger design and overall thermal management.

Competences

Extensive (low-temperature) thermal expertise

(Cryogenic) cooling processes, (cryo)coolers, heat switches, energy transfer & rejection, heat sinking, impact of material & gas properties.

System aspects may include:

(Cryogenic) cooling processes
Passive & active (cryo)coolers
Heat switches and heat sinking
(Counter-flow) heat exchangers & regenerators
Energy transfer & rejection
Impact of material & gas properties at (extreme) low temperatures

Multi-physics overall system modeling

Thermal-fluidic, stress-drift dynamic lumped element models.

To fully understand and optimize the thermal system, we can provide simulations of the fluidic and thermal behavior of the system using our internally developed LEM (lumped element method) approach. Additionally, even more detailed aspects of the system can be modelled using FEM/CFD models in which DEMCON bunova is specialized.

Vacuum & compressor technologies

Custom vacuum chambers, sorption compression, feed-throughs, carbon getters and long-life vacuum.

DEMCON kryoz has much experience with vacuum technology. We design and realize various vacuum systems and can assemble them, if necessary, under cleanroom conditions.

Fully customized vacuum chambers
Electrical, optical & fluidical feed-throughs
Long-life vacuum without active pumping

System integration

Design, integration and realization of thermal solutions (e.g. electron microscopes, space satellites, medical diagnostic equipment, industrial hardware). Our (cryogenic) cooling solutions are often part of larger (high-tech) systems. This often means we should optimize the cooling system for aspects including:

(Very) limited volume claim
Vibration & drift restrictions
Low thermal impact on the surrounding system
Specific sample loading procedures

Additionally, since Kryoz is part of the DEMCON Group, much know-how and experience with very complex total system integration is directly available. Look at some examples…

DEMCON Bunova

Creating optimized (cryo)cooling solutions often requires very detailed analyses of specific system parts. DEMCON BuNova offers high-end virtual simulation (FEM/CFD) facilities and has high-end expertise in the area of heat transfer, fluid dynamics and structural analysis. DEMCON BuNova has as a broad knowledge and experience area, with experts that are each specialized in a specific competence domain. Especially where disciplines cross, and knowledge of different areas is needed, DEMCON BuNova offers an added value.
