Abstract

Thermal properties of superfluid helium have been studied for more than 30 years; now they are being utilized in numerous laboratories investigating specific applications of superconductivity. One of the properties of great importance is its high thermal conductivity, which makes the liquid heat capacity of a cooling bath almost fully available to absorb local heat pulses. This behavior is of great interest for the cryogenic stabilization of pulsed superconducting magnet systems[1].
