The HERA superconducting proton ring contains 422 dipoles, 224 quadrupoles and about 650 correction magnets which are also superconducting. The coils are cooled by single-phase helium in forced flow which is in thermal contact with two-phase helium in counterflow. The total mass to be cooled to liquid helium temperature amounts to about 3.9 × 106 kg. Calculations on steady-state operation and on two methods of cool down and warm up of the magnet system are presented.
