SUMMARY NOTES
SIMULATIONS (Gabriel)
- Power deposition in central CPS
- total power 30kW
- fraction of power ~1kW/cm
- Core flared - but small at entrance and then flares out due to energy spread, deflection
- gap largest at downstream end
- ACTION: update model to match simulation
MECHANICAL MODELING/DESIGN (Josh, Steve L.)
- Beam pipe channel design: need specs for diameter, flare (Bogan can provide) - assumed in model rectangular shape
- part the flares out in Gabriel model consists of two cones (bigger one is ~12cm)
- easiest may be circular and diameter ~4" - best only one flange
- Downstream beam pipe 4" diameter seems to work well
- ACTION: Offline discussion about beam pipe material, cooling, dimensions
- Note: no cooling needed for pipe
- Magnet cooling - how to introduce cooling into the shield
- labyrinth not needed as particles of low energy and bending down, opening 1cm and length 30cm then ratio 30
- best to make connections upstream - through back with lower entry, bigger hole in back should not be a problem
- cooling for 30kW beam, but also need cooling and power for magnet itself
- main worry is activation - best might be straight from back (upstream!) for power
- ACTION: implement cooling channels
- Cu Core machining
- Compound corners - best may be a few mm
- ACTION: edit core model, pole for beam pipe at rear exit (diameter cabling, beam pipe, etc.)
TUNGSTEN POWDER (Bogdan)
- Not yet ordered - still in procurement
- ACTION: investigate order status
- Involve B. Metzger in discussion about tungsten powder - prior experience with W mixtures
- investigate possibility to order lower density powder and R&D to make suitable blocks
- high density powder became expensive
LEAD PROCUREMENT (Bogdan)
- In the works - should arrive in ~ 2months
- May be too much to store in Pb storage area - investigation ongoing
NEXT MEETING: FRIDAY 28 AUGUST AT 11:00 AM (ET)
