Title: Axial heat transport in He II in a thick-walled copper channel

Conference · · Adv. Cryog. Eng.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6233279

A computer model was developed to simulate a configuration similar to a short section of He II cooling channel in a copper-stabilized magnet. The model produces steady copper and helium temperature distributions that agree in form with experimental measurements of the configuration. However, for more exact simulation it is necessary to measure independently the Kapitza conductance and thermal conductivity. Such a model, if extended somewhat and included in a larger system, could prove a valuable tool in the design of He II stabilized magnet. Subsequent discussion concerned the model with the Kapitza coefficient h /SUB o/ = 0.
