Working on the next phase of my cryocooler project for liquifying nitrogen/air - this time using the joule-thompson effect for cooling. On the left is a 33 ft (10m) long insulated coaxial heat exchanger with a cold head sticking out at the bottom. On the right is a compressor and aftercooler taken from a 12K BTU portable air conditioner. Aiming for at least -150°C, but very possible that it could reach as far as -170°C.
