ス6の温度は低下する。 Now, for example, a calorimeter is stored in the storage case 6,
To change the temperature of the measurement sample over time,
When the electromagnetic control valve 14 connected to the flow hole 11 is controlled to increase the vapor pressure in the Dua bottle 1 according to a predetermined program, the surface of the liquid nitrogen 2 in the cylinder 7 rises accordingly. Due to the rise, the area of the cylinder 7 that comes into contact with the liquid nitrogen 2 increases, and the temperature of the storage case 6 decreases accordingly.

る。 When the level of liquid nitrogen 2 in the cylinder 7 increases or decreases,
Correspondingly, the length of the metal resistance wire of the liquid level gauge 10 in contact with the liquid nitrogen 2 increases or decreases, so the resistance decreases or increases and the level is displayed on the meter as an increase or decrease in current. When the vapor pressure in the dure bottle 1 is further increased, the liquid nitrogen 2 in the cylinder 7 enters the storage case 6 through the hole. When the liquid nitrogen 2 surfaces in the cylinder 7 and the storage case 6 are raised due to the increase in vapor pressure in the Dua bottle 1, the areas of the cylinder 7 and the storage case 6 that come into contact with the liquid nitrogen 2 increase, so As a result, the temperature of the storage case 6 further decreases.

果がある。 In this way, according to the present invention, the pressure applied to the liquid nitrogen surface raises and lowers the liquid nitrogen surface inside the small diameter cylinder, increases or decreases the contact area between the cylinder and liquid nitrogen, and increases or decreases the temperature drop. , the amount of liquid nitrogen can be relatively small and rapid cooling can be performed, and by adjusting the pressure applied to the liquid nitrogen surface while monitoring the readings on the liquid level gauge, it is possible to maintain a predetermined temperature program. Can be cooled. Furthermore, since the vapor pressure of liquid nitrogen is used to adjust its level, the structure can be simplified.
