Stability of superconductors cooled internally by helium II heat transfer.
Author(s) : SCIVER S. W. van
Type of article: Article
Summary
Helium II (superfluid helium) is a unique fluid which offers substantial advantages when utilized as a coolant for large superconducting magnets. One of its principal advantages is its extremely high heat conductivity. The paper reviews the processes involved in transient heat transfer in helium II. Emphasis is placed on those processes which are particularly relevant to the stability of superconducting magnets. A recent experiment involving composite superconductors cooled with helium II demonstrates the importance of transient heat transfer for obtaining stability in these systems.
