Protection Database Tool First meeting at CERN to discuss the project progress, 16th March 2017 Protection Database Tool Timo Tarhasaari ja Tiina Salmi Acknowledgement: Susana Izquierdo Bermudez and Hugo Bajas (CERN)
Overiew Goals Database design Demos (example with MXFS03)
Goals Part of the FCC-TUT-QUENCH-4 project One of the main objectives is to develop an Excel database tool that links magnet parameters with test results Easy extraction of test results and related magnet parameters Useful for simulations and studies such as scaling law “Super quench table” and reference for magnet designs WORK UNIT TUT-QUENCH-4 Analyze the experimental results from the quench protection tests of high-field Nb3Sn magnets in order to provide experimental validation to the assumptions for the quench protection of the 16 T magnet designs within the WP5 of the EuroCirCol collaboration.
Database Design Technology based on MS Excel and pivot tables Pivot tables for storing large tables and operation with sets rows Does not need any external software / services Inlcudes two spreadsheets: The database (DB) with its internal structure and stored data (hidden from the user) User interface (UI): Allows user to take actions with database The database manager, which communicates between the user and database is integrated in the macros of the UI
Database internal structure: The shelves in a warehouse Database with data: Boxes on the shelves UI: Loading bridge for bringing taking stuff to the warehouse Manager: Warehouse worker putting boxes on correct shelves and delivering the requested boxes to the loading bridge
