<p>A superconducting magnet assembly and method of cooling a superconducting magnet assembly includes thermally connecting a pulsating heat pipe to the superconducting magnet assembly and adding a liquid cryogen to the pulsating heat pipe. The superconducting magnet assembly also includes a coil former, at least one superconducting solenoid magnet comprising at least one superconducting winding wrapped about the coil former and configured to generate a magnetic field, and at least one pulsating heat pipe thermally connected to the at least one superconducting solenoid magnet. The present invention has been described in terms of specific embodiment(s), and it is recognized that equivalents, alternatives, and modifications, aside from those expressly stated, are possible and within the scope of the appending claims.</p> |
