A cryogenic system has been designed for cooling ~1000 superconducting magnets associated with the proposed "energy-doubler" at the National Accelerator Laboratory. This paper reports on design parameters, cooling concepts, heat transfer and pressure drops. Even though in final design changes are anticipated, the attempt in this work is to complete a refrigeration design which would accomplish the cooking necessary for the energy doubler magnets.
