Mathematical Methods for Cryocoolers provides the first comprehensive treatment of the mathematical frameworks that underpin modern cryogenic refrigeration systems. Cryocoolers are critical technologies enabling astronomy, quantum science, particle physics, and advanced aerospace applications. This book bridges theory and practice by combining thermodynamic principles, applied mathematics, and computational tools into a unified approach for understanding, modelling, and optimising cryocoolers. This book is intended for researchers, physicists, astronomers, engineers, and advanced students in cryogenics, applied physics, astronomy, engineering, and instrumentation. By blending physical insight with modern modelling strategies, it provides a definitive reference for both academic study and applied cryocooler development.

Key Features:

Presents key mathematical methods for modelling physical phenomena of cryocooler systems Includes introductory context and background information that enables a student at graduate level and upwards to get up to speed for the required modelling methodologies Includes helpful examples throughout each chapter to demonstrate how calculations and modelling can be performed Relates the theory and mathematics to practical examples that are relevant to current research in the field, referencing literature throughout the book
