INTRODUCTION
The word cryogenics is derived from two Latin
words. Cryo - means cold Genics - means science. Cryogenics is the science of cold. It suggests that how to get low temperatures and how materials behave at the low temperatures
Cryogenic cooling or cryogenic refrigeration system is one of the system from cryogenic. This field has been an enormous growth especially after World War II. To consider the field of cryogenics as that involving temperatures below 123K.
IDEAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS:-. In the case of refrigerators, there are two types of low-temperature source that may be used. If we evaporate a liquid to furnish the cooling, energy is added to the refrigerant in an isothermal manner, as far as the evaporator of the refrigerator is concerned. On the other hand, we may use a cold gas such as helium (which gets quite cold before it liquefies), and energy is added at constant pressure (for the refrigerant) without liquefying the gas.

Magnetic Cooling:
By using liquid He3 we can reach upto 0.6 K by
reducing pressure upto 72.6 Pa which is vapour pressure of He3. But it is difficult to maintain such low pressure. Giauque and Debye pointed out that a paramagnetic substance could be used instead of a gas or liquid and that a magnetic field could be used instead of a fluid to attain the low temperatures.
mechanical refrigeration. Small &lighter equipment requires less space. less electrical power required due to absence of compressor. less noise. lower maintenance cost.
Coolants:
1. Liquid CO2
2. Liquid N2
are not flammable, and are not poisonous. The common coolants, Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen, are normal components of our breathable air. In fact, about 78% of our atmosphere is Nitrogen, so its safety is pretty well demonstrated. Carbon Dioxide is the fizzy part of soft drinks, so it better safe.
