Abstract

Several types of liquid helium pumps using a superconducting drive are described in the literature. Examples are superconducting rotating pumps,1 and piston or diaphragm pumps, which use the forces between a superconducting coil and a diamagnetic (superconducting) or ferromagnetic material.2,3 This paper describes a bellows pump where the driving force is achieved by an arrangement of three superconducting coils.
