Heat radiation reduction in the cryostat with multilayer insulation technique

Multilayer insulation (MLI) is an important technique for the reduction of radiation heat load in cryostats. The present work is focused on investigation for the selection of suitable reflective layer and spacer material in MLI systems. In our analysis, we have selected perforated double-Aluminized Mylar (DAM) with Dacron, unperforated DAM with Silk-net and perforated DAM with Glass-tissue for their evaluation as the reflective layer as well as spacer materials in MLI technique. Current work would discuss the calculation of the effect of layer density and the number of layers on the heat load. Knowing the key parameters of MLI, we have compared the heat load generation in spherical as well as cylindrical cryostats and the effect of layering near and outer surface on the heat load.
