✦ Synopsis

Flowing superflu~d hehum cav=tates much more readdy than normal hqu=d hehum, and there ts a marked difference =n the cavitation behav=our of the two flmds as the lambda point is traversed Examples of cavJtatton m a turbine meter and centnfugal pump are gtven together wtth measurements of the cavttatton strength of flowing superflmd hehum We attnbute the unusual cavttatton behavtour of superfluld hehum to its immense thermal conducttvtty Keywords hehum, cav)tatton, space cryogenics

Flow characteristics of superfluid helium through porous elements of thermomechanical pumps were experimentally studied with special emphasis on the critical heat input which bounds the ideal flow regime and the superfluid turbulent flow regime. The dependence of the critical heat input on the tempe

A forced flow superfluid helium circulation system has been developed. Steady state temperature distribution and transient thermal propagation behaviour along the cooling channel have been investigated. The results are analysed on the basis of the energy equation using the Gorter-Mellink relation. T
