Abstract
Techniques facilitating mechanical vibration management for cryogenic environments are provided. In one example, a system can comprise a processor that executes computer executable components stored in memory. The computer executable components can comprise a linearization component and a drive component. The linearization component can translate data indicative of a nonlinear drive signal into a linear drive signal. The drive component can dynamically control operation of a compressor of a cryocooler using the linear drive signal. The cryocooler can provide cooling capacity for a cryogenic environment.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a processor that executes the following computer-executable components stored in memory;
- a linearization component that translates data indicative of a nonlinear drive signal into a linear drive signal;
- and
- a drive component that dynamically controls operation of a compressor of a cryocooler using the linear drive signal, the cryocooler providing cooling capacity for a cryogenic environment.
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- translating, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, data indicative of a nonlinear drive signal into a linear drive signal;
- and
- dynamically controlling, by the system, operation of a compressor of a cryocooler using the linear drive signal, the cryocooler providing cooling capacity for a cryogenic environment.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
- translate, by the processor, data indicative of a nonlinear drive signal into a linear drive signal;
- and
- dynamically control, by the processor, operation of a compressor of a cryocooler using the linear drive signal, the cryocooler providing cooling capacity for a cryogenic environment.
