Gk7 Cryocooler

The Gk7 Cryocooler was a popular barrel cooling device used extensively on Imperial E-web heavy reapeating cannons. It utilized a double-chamber cooling sytem to effectively remove excess heat from the cannon's barrel during firing. One of these chambers, the closest to the barrel, contained a small pump and de-cougulation filter for over heated coolant fluid. The other chamber accted as a heat dissipation device. Coolant flowed through this section after being pumped and filterd and the hot liquid was allowed to cool by discharging heat into a special high-temp mesh on the outer most portion of the secondary chamber. Eventually, the entire unit had to be allowed to cool as excess heat could actually melt the absorbant mesh, causing the device to fail.
