  7. HL-LHC String status and schedule overview • The HL-LHC String projectwas in question for most part of 2018 and a reviewwasorganized in Oct to define the strategy. As a consequence, work on the projectwaslimiteduntil end of 2018. • The HL-LHC string review of 5 October 2018 (Indico 741801) confirmed the approval of the project but the configuration choicewaspostponed to February 2019. Done and baselineconfirmed. • The projectisnowapproved and funded.

  8. Main functionalities and requirements of the cryogenic system • Main functionalities to be provided by the String cryogenic system • Must be representative of the tunnel configuration (prototype) • Controlled cool-down & warmup in 4 weeks • Operation of the magnets in superfluid helium (1.9 K): static + ramp heat loads: < 50 W (t.b.c.) • Operation of the cold powering system (DFX, DSL, DFH): 6 g/s liquefaction at full current • Pressure relief during quenches: up to 39 MJ to the cold mass • Recovery to 1.9 K after a quench in max. 12 hours (to be confirmed for high energy quenches) • Cooling of the beam screen at 60 K – 80 Kcanceled Oct 2018 review • Ultimate heat load capacity for individual test of each pair of heat exchangers: 500 W for Q1-Q2a & Q2b-Q3 and 250 W for D1-CP. (values to be confirmed) • Main requirements for the cryogenic infrastructure • Liquid helium supply: up to 25 g/s @ 3.5 bar for ultimate heat load tests • Low pressure pumping capacity: nominal powering < 4 g/s , ultimate up to 23 g/s (1 week) • Screensupply at 60 K • Warm gasrecoveryfrom the current leads • Compatibility withoperation of the test benches in SM18 !

Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  10. Cryogenic tests for the HL-LHC String • Main objective of the cryogenic tests: getadvance information on the cryogeniccharacteristics of the followingsystems (seenext slides for details): • The cold mass coolingsystem: maximum power and control • The quench relief system: behaviour in case of quench • The beamscreens: behaviour in case of transientheatloads • N.B. A number of tests are ongoing or planned to validateseveral components/systemslike the beamscreens and the cold powering system • No influence expected on the design and construction for cryogenic aspects: • all cryogenic design isbased on wellknownparameters, validation done on components and extensive experiencewith the LHC • NB. schedulewise, the resultswillbetoolate for a revision of the design of the magnetcryogenics aspects or to revise the cryogenic system • Usefulinformation willalsobegainedfor mostcroygenicoperationparameters. This willallow a betteradvancedefinition of the control system. A. Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  12. Tests for the quench behaviour and beam screens Cancelled after review of Oct 2018 A. Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  13. Proposed cryogenic architecture for the HL-LHC String SQXL ProximityCryogenics • 4 subsystems • The String of magnets(including cold powering system) • «tunnel like» SQXL • Proximitycryogenics (CRG) • Cryogenic infrastructure (CRG) Cryogenic infrastructure A. Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  14. The SQXL and the proximity cryogenic system • SQXL: a "QXL" like cryo-distribution system to interface with the magnets and the DFX feedbox.Planned to besimilar to the tunnel segment of the QXL. As this line isonly a fraction of the cryogenic distribution system, itis not plannedto use it for qualifying possible suppliersand itwillbespecific to the String. • A distribution valve box (DVB) to interface with the SM18 infrastructure & quench buffer. • A cold quench buffer (+ warm buffer if needed): estimation 5 m3 for cold buffer only (but we have the old 2 m3 String 2 buffer!). • Transfer lines and valve boxes to connect to the infrastructure: SC link test bench to be kept operational . • Specific instrumentation for the tests will be defined where necessary. A. Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  15. SM18 cryogenic infrastructure for the HL-LHC String • Main requirements for HL-LHC String • Liquid pumping capacity: nominal < 4 g/s, ultimate up to 20 g/s • Helium supply: up to 25 g/s @ 3.5 bar + shielding 60 K – 80 K • Recovery from full energy quenches in less that 12 hours: min. 12 g/s VLP • SM18 Infrastructure • The existing Linde/Sulzer refrigerator will be dedicated to the String tests. • The helium pumping capacity for 1.9 K operation is currently provided by two volumetric Warm Pumping Units (WPU) with each a capacity of 6 g/s @ 10 mbar. The WPUs can also be operated at up to 30 mbar reaching 18 g/s. • The current requirement is to keep the SC link feedboxoperational for possible tests of the current leads. • New /modification of infrastructure equipment • Significant modifications/new construction of the existing valve boxes and transferlinesfed by the Linde/Sulzer cold box. • For high mass flow pumping @10 mbar a cold compressorwith a capacity of 18 g/s isavailable and maybebeconnectedif necessary in serieswith one of the WPUs.

Perin, TE-CRG, CRG-TM, 11.02.2019, INDICO 797080

  17. SM18 low pressure pumping for HL-LHC String operation • Requirements during String “static” operation is estimated to be lower than 5 g/s. This could be much higher for quench recovery and during current ramping (under study). • Validation of the ultimate performance of each of the 3 double bayonet heat exchangers with max pumping capacity. This test will be of limited duration (about 1 week). • The operating modes during the String tests are summarized below. * Pressures at pumping unit (WPU or Cold Comp) interface A.
