Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a cryogenic cooling system and method for particular use in cooling superconducting cables over extended distances, the system and method involving the evaporation of liquid cryogen though an array of spray generators thereby effecting heat transfer utilising the latent heat of vaporisation and optionally through sensible heat transfer in order to provide improved cryogenic cooling over extended distances..
