Interfaces between metals and polytetrafluoroethylene (TFE) are common in cryogenic systems. In this paper we present results from measurements of the temperature dependence of the dynamic coefficient of friction between commercially pure copper and TFE. The effect of the copper surface finish was a

One of the causes of quench in a superconducting magnet is frictional heat. The properties of the frictional force and the frictional heat of magnet structural materials were investigated at 4.2 K in liquid helium. The relationship between temperature rise, measured with a thermocouple, and friction
To assess the frictional properties at the wedge of a toroidal field coil of a tokamak fusion reactor, friction tests were conducted using structural steel, J N2, against various materials in a vacuum at low temperatures under a normal load of 10 N and a peak-to-peak sliding amplitude of 1 00 #m. Th
