Cryocooler Are Actively Used In Designing of NextGen Magnetic Levitation Trains.
Global
Cryocooler Market: Overview
According
to the Cryogenic Society of America Inc., a cryogenic cooler or a
cryocooler is a device designed to allow active cooling at
temperatures of about -150 degrees Celsius or colder. Different
thermodynamic techniques and cycles are utilized in the process of
cryocooling. On an average, a cryocooler has a capacity of 100W or
less whereas a cryogenic refrigerator or a cryoplant has a capacity
of 500W. The cryogenic fluids such as liquid helium, liquid nitrogen,
or very cold nitrogen and helium gas are utilized for cryocooling.
The liquefied gas is circulated to absorb heat from the interior of
the cryocooler and transfer it outside.

The
ability of a cryocooler to cool its interior environment depends on
various thermodynamic properties of the circulating gas. The global
cryocooler market has been witnessing considerable demand from the
developed economies owing to the rapidly evolving technologies in the
military and healthcare sectors.Some of the common types of
cryocoolers are Stirling cryocoolers, Brayton cryocoolers, pulse-tube
cryocoolers, Joule Thomson cryocoolers, and Gifford-McMahon
cryocoolers. In terms of services, the global cryocooler market can
be segmented into product repair and refurbishment, customer
training, technical support, and preventive maintenance. The key
application sectors in the global cryocooler market are research and
development, energy, military, commercial, medical, space, transport,
and environmental. The military sector has contributed immensely
towards the growth of the market.
Global
Cryocooler Market: Drivers and Restraints
The
growing demand for cryocoolers across the military and healthcare
sectors has been boosting the global cryocoolers market. In the
military sector, cryocoolers are used to maintain cryogenic
temperatures for IR sensors installed in night vision-based systems,
satellite-based surveillance, and missile guidance. In the healthcare
sector, the rising demand for cryocoolers can be attributed to their
extensive utilization in proton therapy, cryosurgery, MRI systems,
and liquefaction of oxygen in hospitals. The rapid shortage of helium
gas across the developing economies has also supported the market’s
growth. Cryocoolers are also used for superconductivity applications
in semiconductor fabrication units and magnetic levitation trains.
The global cryocooler market has immense growth opportunities with
the increasing applications of cryocoolers in the space sector.
Global
Cryocooler Market: Region-wise Outlook
Geographically,
the global cryocooler market has been segmented into Asia Pacific,
Europe, North America, and Rest of the World. In North America, the
cryocooler market has been registering significant growth due to the
rising adoption of cryocoolers for proton therapy in the treatment of
cancer. Cryocoolers are being also used for satellite monitoring and
missile guidance in the military sector. In November last year, the
U.S. Navy’s aircraft carrier USS Gerald R Ford was successfully
installed with the cryocooler technology. The robust growth of the
military and healthcare sector in the U.S. has driven the growth of
the cryocooler market in North America. Asia Pacific and Europe are
expected to exhibit considerable demand for cryocoolers.
