  1. Cryogenics Introduction, Overview and Applications Prof. Anand Bhatt APME, IT, NU

  2. What is Cryogenics? Cryo means Icy cold and Genics means to produce. It is that branch of Engineering science which deals with the production of low temperature below 123 K (-150 degree celcius). C=K+273 It also deals with the different phenomenas occuring at ultra low temperature. It explains some shocking and fascinating facts which occur only at ultra low temperature.
