Method of generating pressurized mixed-phase cryogen
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12000536B2) discloses a method for generating pressurized, mixed-phase cryogen using a cryogenic system. The method involves introducing pressurized gas into a heat exchange coil immersed in a liquid cryogen, cooling the gas to create the mixed-phase cryogen, collecting and releasing it at a lower pressure, and returning it to the system. Additional steps include setting the initial gas pressure, monitoring various parameters, and controlling system operations based on sensor feedback. The liquid cryogen can be nitrogen, argon, oxygen, helium, or other liquefied gases, making this method versatile for different applications.
Moreover, the patent details a method specifically designed for use with a cryoprobe, where the generated mixed-phase cryogen is delivered to the probe's tip via a supply line and then returned to the system after use. The cryoprobe setup includes an umbilical line, probe handle, probe shaft, and vacuum lumen for efficient cryogen delivery. By ensuring a decrease in pressure between the heat exchange coil and the cryoprobe, this method optimizes the cryogenic process for medical or industrial applications. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive approach to generating and utilizing pressurized, mixed-phase cryogen efficiently and effectively.
