Summary:The present invention provides a superconducting cable system suitable for use over long distances and adapted to achieve improved heat absorption through the use of the latent heat of vaporisation of a liquid cryogen, the system including a cryogen supply duct, a superconductor extending longitudinally of the supply duct, a vapour return duct and an evaporation enabling medium disposed between the supply duct and the vapour return duct. La présente invention concerne un système de câble supraconducteur approprié pour une utilisation sur de longues distances et conçu pour obtenir une absorption de chaleur améliorée grâce à l'utilisation de la chaleur latente de vaporisation d'un cryogène liquide, le système comprenant un conduit d'alimentation en cryogène, un supraconducteur s'étendant longitudinalement dans le conduit d'alimentation, un conduit de retour de vapeur et un milieu d'activation d'évaporation disposé entre le conduit d'alimentation et le conduit de retour de vapeur.
