BLINDAGE DE PROTECTION CONTRE UN RAYONNEMENT POUR GENERATEUR SUPRACONDUCTEUR ET PROCEDE POUR SON UTILISATION

摘要

A method of thermal insulating a supercooled component of a superconducting apparatus is disclosed herein and includes a thermal radiation shield which is maintained at a reduced temperature relative to its ambient surroundings for more efficiently shielding its associated inner cooled component. The shield is cooled, preferably internally, by the direct application of a fluid refrigerant, specifically helium gas.
