ESS Cryomodule Testing Meeting

Europe/Stockholm
  • CM09's cryogenic lines are too short to be connected to the VBox while IJCLab confirmed that they did not change them from the last test
    • Are there any fixing support inside? 
    • Guillaume will check the detail
  • Leak test of CM12 at cold may be organized in January
    • cooling down to 4K, wait for 2 days, thermal cycle up to 20K
    • cooling down to 2K, wait for 2 day, thermal cycle up to 20K
    • A sensitive leak detector must be provided to FREIA
    • Cecilia will ask for vacuum team at ESS and they will also join the test at FREIA
  • ESS will perform heat load measurement soon and one of FREIA personals may join this test
    • Akira will directly contact to Nuno
  • Nicolas presented the progress of testing the broken motor originally in CM10 in the N2 test bench at IJCLab
    • The motor was immediately stuck
    • Nicolas observed that gearheat circlips was moved out of the groove and 0.7 mm axial displacement
    • Kjell will check our log about the tests of this motor with disengage system
  • Nicolas showed the strategy of motor tests
    • Akira pointed out that the influence of vacuum must also be carefully checked
  • Nicolas showed a new hypothesis on failty motor due to tilted shaft
    • The motors for elliptical cavities seem like protected by this tilting issue by the design of coupler
    • A new adapter to protect the motor shaft against the tiling was proposed
    • If we change the motors to the bigger ones used for elliptical cavities, interference to the thermal screen must be handled as well
    • In the worst case scenario of replacing all the motors in the spoke CMs, we need 4 months for procurement and some tests to change the thermal screen so the total period would be minimum half a year
    • Although FREIA cannot retest all the modules, CM13 and CM14 may be used as a benchmark of these modifications
