Summary

A PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPED TO STUDY THE THERMODYNAMICS OF TANK-TO-TANK SUPERFLUID HELIUM TRANSFER. THE DEVICES INCLUDE A SUPPLY AND A RECEIVER TANK CONNECTED BY A TRANSFER LINE. THE TRANSFER OF HELIUM II FROM ONE TANK TO THE OTHER IS CONTROLLED BY A FOUNTAIN-EFFECT PUMP. PHASE SEPARATORS ARE PRESENT IN BOTH THE SUPPLY AND RECEIVER TANK TO REGULATE THE BATH TEMPERATURE. DATA FROM A TRANSFER EXPERIMENT ARE USED TO VERIFY THE ACCURACY OF THE MODEL. A GOOD AGREEMENT IS FOUND BETWEEN THE TWO.
