Abstract
A heat exchanger () includes a thermally conductive cylindrical container (), at least one thermally conductive tube (), a cooling column (), and a cryogen coldhead (). The cooling column and coldhead condense gaseous helium to liquid helium to maintain a reservoir of liquid helium in the thermally conductive cylindrical container (). The at least one thermally conductive tube () coils circumferentially around the container (), and extends to at least one superconducting magnet coil heat exchanger (), and back. The tube forms a selected loop which holds gaseous helium at pressure up about 104 bar (1500 PSI) or room temperature to about 0.75 bar at cryogenic temperatures.
