Abstract
Cryogenic oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) have been proposed as a new heat transfer device for conduction/indirect cooling of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets. OHP is a highly effective two-phase heat transfer device which can transport several orders of magnitude greater heat flux than the heat conduction of solids. The performance of cryogenic OHPs has been intensively examined and the results indicate the ability of dramatically improving the performance of HTS magnets. Semi-empirical correlations stating thermo-physical properties of cryogenic OHPs are introduced based on those of room temperature OHPs. The modeling with non-dimensional quantities is useful for the design of cryogenic OHPs.
