Abstract

This paper deals with the theory of heat transfer and thermal exchange processes in combined and normal current leads during cooling with cryogenic gases. The lead metal's thermal and electrical conductivity in the general case may be functions of temperature. The cross-section may also depend upon arbitrary coordinates; the optimum solutions in the analytical form being found. The optimum ratios between length, current, and cross-section are given, as well as the method of lead calculation at arbitrary values of the parameters. Methods of providing for safe operation of leads are considered, and the results are compared with available experimental data.
