โฆ Synopsis
The penetration of screening currents induced in a hollow superconducting cylinder exposed to a transverse magnetic field is calculated two-dimensionally using a numerical model which simulates the superconductor by a system of parallel wire~ Assuming the critical state model and taking account of the dependence of critical current density on magnetic field, the penetration depth and local current density is computed.

Large superconducting apparatus are best cooled by directly coupled refrigerators. The input of high currents to the superconductors produces heat losses according to the Wiedemann-Franz law. It is well-known that the direct input losses can be reduced when the leads are precooled over their entire
