Type of article: Article
Summary
PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE PROFILES FOR HELIUM II FLOW IN THE TRANSFER LINE FOR THE SHOOT EXPERIMENT ARE DETERMINED. FOR PRACTICAL PURPOSES, FORCED FLOW OF HELIUM II WITH REYNOLDS HIGHER THAN 1 MILLION CAN BE TREATED AS A CLASSICAL TURBULENT FLOW. FOR A MAXIMUM SHOOT TRANSFER RATE OF 0.22 L/SEC, THE TEMPERATURE RISE BETWEEN THE PUMP OUTLET AND THE RECEIVER TANK IS ABOUT 80 MILLIK WITH A 7 W HEAT LOAD IMPOSED ON THE 4 M LONG TRANSFER LINE.
