Abstract
When cooling a superconducting magnet for use in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device, a two-stage cryocooler () employs a first stage cooler () to cool a working gas (e.g., Helium, Hydrogen, etc.) to approximately 25 K. The working gas moves through a tubing system by convection until the magnet () is at approximately 25K. Once the magnet () reaches 25 K, gas flow stops, and a second stage cooler () cools the magnet () further, to about 4 K.
