A limited set of data measured on the US Prototype (USP) joint sample is us
ed to assess the capability of the Mithrandir code to simulate heat-slug tr
ansients among the complex assembly of joint components. The Multi-conducto
r Mithrandir (M&M) code is then applied to simulate heat exchange in a join
t of the Central Solenoid Model Coil (CSMC) inner module.
