2 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration Absorber Design Issues 1.LH2 circulation and heat extraction 2.Monitoring and instrumentation 3.Window attachment 4.Assembly and disassembly: 1.Removability 2.Stabilization 5.Cryogenic attachments 6.Temperature stability 1.Insulation of hotter/colder elements 2.Prevention of O2 condensation 7.Vacuum integrity 8.Physical modifications and upgrades

3 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration LH2 Safety Issues O2/LH2 separation No Ignition sources near LH2 Adequate ventilation Affects: Windows: absorbers and vacuum Primary and secondary vacuum volumes Support structure absorber/focussing coil Instrumentation (experiment and monitors) Cryogenic operation Laboratory area Cooling concerns: Minimizing window thickness/no. of windows Uniform heat maintenance of LH2

4 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration Categories for FNAL LH2 Mucool Safety Review 1.Civil construction 2.Absorber windows 3.Vacuum vessel windows 4.Safety controls systems 5.Electrical safety of hydrogen areas

5 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration Safety Codes and Standards for FNAL LH2 FERMILAB STANDARDS (FESHM) “Guidelines for the Design, Review and Approval of Liquid Cryogenic Targets” “Liquid Hydrogen System Guidelines” “Storage and Use of Flammable Gases” “Cryogenic System Review” “Oxygen Deficiency Hazards” Other…Pressure Vessels, Dewars, Electrical, etc. NATIONAL CODES ASME Code National Electric Code National Fire Protection Association Code Compressed Gas of America Standard ISA Application of Safety Instrumented Systems

6 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration FNAL Safety Requirements for Windows Absorber Windows Design: Internal WAMP = 25 psid FEA showing max. allowable stress < 0.25 UTS (this is waived by meeting the performance tests below) Material certification Window engineering/design drawing Tests: Room temperature tests per UG-100 of the ASME code and room temp. burst test. Liquid nitrogen test – burst test per UG-101 of the ASME code Note: The LH2 circuit safety relief system includes 2 valves with a 10 psid set point. In addition, a PLC-controlled vent valve will be installed

7 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration FNAL Safety Requirements for Windows (2) Vacuum Windows Assumption: Design assumes that the beampipe attaches to absorber vacuum windows, therefore vacuum exists on both sides of the windows Design: Internal WAMP = 25 psid External MAWP = 15 psid FEA showing maximum allowable stress is <2/3 S y or < 0.4 S u Material certification Window drawing Tests: 1.Burst test 5 vacuum windows at room temp. to demonstrate a burst pressure of at least 75 psid for all samples. (pressure exerted on interior side of vacuum volume). 2.Non-destructive tests at room temperature: External pressure to 25 psid to demonstrate no failures: no creeping, yielding, elastic collapse/buckling or rupture

8 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration FNAL Safety Requirements for Controls Safety Interlocks (Quadlog PLC) and Controls (Apacs) Functions: Control operations of the LH2 system Safety interlocks for the LH2 system Safety actions in the case where flammable gas or ODH conditions are detected System design: Design requires knowledge of equipment value in the experimental hall An estimate of failure severity and frequency will be made as well as the consequences to personnel and equipment The overall risk will be evaluated to determine a “Safety Integrity Level” (SIL). The SIL will determine the safety controls architecture (level of redundancy required) per ANSI/ISA-84.01, “Application of Safety Instrumented Systems for the Process Industries”

9 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration MICE Staging and experiment 1.Filling, cooling and purging cycle 2.Data acquisition and controls 3.Absorber variations 4.Safety triggers and recovery.. 1.Magnet quench 2.Cryogenic failure 3.Absorber failure 4.Vacuum failure 5.Upgrades (wedges, H2 gas..) 6.System stability checks 7.Maintenance cycle

10 March 14, 2003 MICE Absorber/Coil Integration Instrumentation Safety Temperature/density uniformity inside LH2 Safety instrumention inside vacuum area Detectors for cooling measurements Safety Issues: 1. Limits the amount of power/(area or vol) 2. Physical size of the signal feedthroughs 3. Distance away from target (e.g. VLPC readouts) 4. Seals from signals to electronics: wires fibers tubes
