Abstract
A pulse tube cryocooler includes a pulse tube that includes a tube inner space, and an integral flow straightener that includes a flow straightening layer disposed to face the tube inner space so as to straighten a refrigerant gas flow from the tube inner space or into the tube inner space and a heat exchange layer formed integrally with the flow straightening layer outside the flow straightening layer with respect to the tube inner space so as to exchange heat with the refrigerant gas flow by contact with the refrigerant gas flow and is disposed at a low-temperature end and/or a high-temperature end of the pulse tube. The flow straightening layer includes a plurality of protrusions that protrude from the heat exchange layer toward the tube inner space.
