10 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 10 Simulations of the mercury jet entrance into the magnetic field

11 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 11 Distortion of the jet entering 15 T solenoid B = 15 T V0 = 25 m/s Top: Aspect ration of the jet entering 15 T solenoid

12 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 12 R. Samulyak et. al, Journal of Computational Physics, 226 (2007), 1532 - 1549. Comparison with the theory and other experiments (Oshima et al) Obtained an excellent agreement with theory and experiments (Oshima at al) on the jet distortion MERIT target simulations by FronTier agreed well with HyperMAG simulations (Neal Morley)

13 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 13 Predicted jet distortion in three view ports (MERIT experiment) vp1 vp2 vp3 Our simulations underestimeted the jet distortion. Some other factors need to be resolved

14 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 14 Simulations only qualitatively explain the width of the jet in different view ports. Experimental data V = 15 m/s, B = 10TV = 20 m/s, B = 10T B = 15T

15 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 15 Simulations of the mercury jet interaction with proton pulses

16 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 3D Simuation of Jet Ejection from a Nozzle. High Speed Jet Cavitation, Breakup and Atomization We evaluated the influence of the initial jet turbulence on jet disruption due to the interaction with the proton pulse Initial turbulence is negligible compared to proton pulse induced instabilities As a result, most of runs are done with idealized initial jet

17 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 17 Simulation setup for proton-jet interaction Elliptic jet: Major radius = 0.8cm Minor radius = 0.3cm Striganov’s Energy deposition calculation for 14Gev, 10T proton beam is used. The peak pressure is 12,050 bar. Initial pressure distribution

18 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 18 Evolution of the jet surface and cavitation bubbles for B=5T

19 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 19 Positions for the filament length calculation To obtain the expansion velocity along the jet surface, we evaluate the expansion length in 4 typical positions.

20 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 20 MHD Stabilizing Effect Right: From top to bottom, the jet surface at 150 microsecond under longitudinal magnetic field. Both the interior velocity and the surface velocity of the jet are decreasing with the increasing magnetic field. The MHD stabilizing effect is weaker than in the corresponding 2D simulations where circular current exists in filaments. Image from the experiment, B=10T 5T 0T 10T 15T

21 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 21 No magnetic field

22 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 22 B=5T

23 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 23 B=10T

24 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 24 B=15T

25 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 25 Maximum length of expansion for B=15T under mesh refinement. Mesh refinement

26 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 26 The velocity of filaments in the major axis of the ellipse for different magnetic fields.

27 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 27 The velocity of filaments in the major axis of the ellipse for different magnetic fields: comparison of experiments and simulations

28 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 28 Large (~25 microsecond) delay in the formation of filaments was not observed in simulations. Currently the nature of this delay is not understood. Delay in the formation of filaments

29 Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 29 Conclusions and Future Plan New robust algorithm for topological change of 3D surface, 3D bubble insertion method coupling with the MHD code enabled large scale 3D simulations with complex geometry. Performed simulations of mercury jets interacting with magnetic fields Observed good agreement with experiments on the filament velocity The delay of the filament formation was not observed in simulations. Need to clarify the physics of the observed delay of the jet disruption Further study of the jet entrance in the magnetic field will be performed and the contribution of several factors (velocity profile, turbulence etc) will be tested Comprehensive benchmark with MERIT experiments Simulations of mercury target at higher beam intensities Simulations of the mercury damp process Studies relevant to other target concepts (waterfall etc.)
