Analytical and experimental studies on the cool-down of vacuum insulated cryogenic transfer lines have been carried out. An expression for estimating the cool-down history is derived taking into account the gas conduction effects. Experiments were carried out for LN2 flow in glass lines. The cool-do

Cool-down of cryogenic transfer lines is studied analytically and experimentally. Analytical expressions are derived for estimating cool-down time of uninsulated and vacuum insulated lines. The experimental results prove that for short sections the mass flow-rate does not affect the cool-down very s
