β¦ Synopsis
The results of a series of measurements of superfluid transition behavior in helium films are presented. Variations of the superfluid density and dissipation in the vicinity of the transition were measured. Dynamical effects were probed by comparing transitions at two different frequencies. Results are compared with a comprehensive numerical calculation in which finite-size scaling effects are explicitly introduced. A consistent picture for the dependence of critical thickness on temperature, of the scaling of the transition shape with temperature and of dynamical effects is obtained.

Eects of channel of superΒ―uid helium (He II) on heat transport characteristics, especially on the k-transition heat Β―ux and temperature rise at the channel end, are investigated experimentally and numerically. The ends of the channel are kept open to an He II bath under the atmospheric pressure cond
Considering the basic heat transfer rules of superfluid helium and the phase diagram of helium, pressure effects on heat transfer to HeII are especially studied. If the bath pressure is less than -Pressure (P ), special peak heat flux density relations are shown to correlate bath pressure, hydrostat
