We explore the rf characteristics of pipe cooled superconducting cavities versus bath cooled ones, using different pipe configurations and different liquid helium temperatures. Pipe cooled cavities can perform nearly as well as bath cooled ones, provided a suitable pipe configuration and cavity wall thickness is chosen. Pure thermal estimates and fits with experimental data show that pipe cooling is a viable solution for future cavities.
