Gérard Vermeulen from Institut Néel presented a didactic talk on the different cycles for 3He-4He dilution
refrigeration in space with details on the open and closed cycle cases and the results on an anti-gravity
orientation. Another cooling technique which is a good candidate for space cryogenic cooling technique which
is Adiabatic Demagnetization, was presented by Jean-Marc Duval (CEA Grenoble). He presented the state-of-
the-art of this technique and the different key components to construct an adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator
for space cryogenic system. The last presentation of the morning was dedicated to the Turbo-Brayton technology
for space applications. After a review of the general concept and the thermodynamic cycles of these machines,
Julien Tanchon (Absolut System) presented different technologies implemented in satellites.
The first talk of the afternoon was devoted to Pulse Tube coolers for Earth observation and science. The talk
was given by Thierry Wiertz (Air Liquide Advanced Technologies) where he demonstrated the complexity of
space cryocoolers showing the importance of the efficiency optimization. Another important subject, the
cryogenic integration in satellites, was developed by Emmanuel Gavila from Thales Alenia Space in his
presentation. He showed in his talk all the constraints due to the launch, the mission and the working conditions
that have to be tackled in the design of space cryocoolers and integration works. Davide Duri from Ariane Group
presented the last talk of the session on Cryogenic motors and launch pads where he detailed the cryogenic
technology involved in all the steps before an Ariane rocket launch. The Day 3 ended with the visit of Air
Liquide Advanced Technologies. The attendants were invited to a tour of the extreme space application clean
room, the turbo-expanders test facility and the large Helium liquefactor/refrigerator/Cryolines construction
workshop. The fourth day of the school ended with a dinner at Caffe Forte in downtown Grenoble. Before the

The last day of EASISchool2 was dedicated to the large-scale refrigeration and liquefaction domains with a
strong involvement of Air Liquide Advanced Technologies (ALaT), the EASITrain industrial partner
specialized in cryogenics and gas engineering. This session started with a talk on helium refrigeration and
liquefaction given by Yannick Fabre from ALaT showing the complexity of such systems. This presentation
was followed by Stéphane Duval’s talk also from ALaT on cryogenic storage and distribution. Safety in
cryogenics was addressed by Eric Ercolani from CEA Grenoble with a useful and demonstrative presentation.
The last talk of the morning was focussed on the production and distribution of hydrogen by Pierre Barjhoux
(ALaT). The presentation was rather exhaustive from the physical singularities of hydrogen to its plant
installations.
The first talk of the afternoon concerned the technology of turbo-Brayton systems developed by Air Liquide.
The talk was given by Cécile Gondrand who detailed the specificities of such cooling system and its applications
for HTS cabling or the reliquefaction of the gas boil-off in LNG industry (fleet and terminal). The last talk of
the day was given by Pierre Crespi, head of the Innovation Department of Air Liquide advanced Technologies
who presented with enthusiasm his Air Liquide and personal experience in the process of research and
innovation with several examples. Among these experience, the success story of the Turbo-Brayton
development initiated by Air Liquide in the 2000’s years and now series product addressing the market of the
LNG reliquefaction plants is a very good illustration of the innovation process in technology from an exploratory
research to the market development.
The teaching part of the school ended with an interactive quiz with all the participants. Finally the school ended
with the visits of the Cryogenic Laboratories of CEA-Grenoble.

6.2 OUTREACH AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT The Neurospin laboratory at Saclay and the MINATEC conference center at Grenoble supported the
EASISchool 2 as cryogenics is one of the current technologies in their activities. The “Laboratoire d’Alliances
en Nanosciences et Energies du Futur” (LANEF), the French ‘Laboratoire d’Excellence’ that associates
fundamental research labs (UGA, CEA, CNRS) based in Grenoble, also supported the EASISchool 2 with the
common objectives shared by these labs and their R&D partners to address challenges in cryogenics (see for
details : http://www.grenoble-lanef.fr/spip.php?rubrique26).
The EASISchool 2 featured also satellite public events with the presence of the travelling exhibition “The Code
of the Universe” during the school period. Present and open to public at the MINATEC site this autumn from
the 18th of September 2019 to the 18th of November 2019 at Grenoble, the exhibition "The Code of the
Universe", series of photographs and images, offers a unique and original opportunity to discover the links
between basic research and technological innovations including superconductivity and cryogenics.
This temporary exhibition travels across Europe to share the major discoveries in physics that allow us to better
understand the Universe around us. This exhibition presents, at the same time, the scientific tools and the new
products and applications that flow from them and that shape our daily life. The photographs illustrate the most
diverse aspects of this scientific research: from questioning to the construction of scientific instruments and the
development of new technologies. Fruit of human curiosity, all this work is based on the ingenuity and creativity
of the women and men involved in this international research.
Around the exhibition, public animations involving the ESR4 and his supervisor from CEA-Grenoble were
organised as EASITrain contributions to the French “Fête de la Science 2019” from the 10th to the 12th of
October 2019 with more than 3000 visitors. The objectives of the EASITrain animation were to introduce
research in science and to present technical developments in cryogenics and superconductivity to primary and
high schools during the first two days and to all public on the last day. The animation proposed guided visits of
the exhibition “The Code of the Universe” and an experimental illustration of high temperature superconductor
properties at cryogenic temperatures. A public conference in French language (“La cryogénie au service des
découvertes scientifiques”) concluded this public animation.
Figure 7: EASITrain animation around the exhibition “The Code of the Universe” at the French “Fête de la Science
2019”on the 10th and 11th of October 2019. Jakub Tkaczuk (ESR4) initiated more than 400 students from primary and
high schools to discover the superconducting and cryogenic applications.
