The enclosed report summarizes work carried out under DOE/MFE Support, during the past four years. Emphasis is placed on progress within the last year. Results of experiments on pressure drop and heat transfer within several Cable-in-Conduit Conductors are described. These results are compared to models for flow in similar geometrics. The work provides a basis for design of magnets using the CIC Conductor Concept.
