  24. Calibrated Cernox vs. LHe Vapor Pressure CX-1050SD-1.4D Tmin~ 3.7 K (0.6 atm) dT=10 mK He Condensation ~ 4.6 K (1.4 atm)

  25. Absorber Cooling Test 20 L Absorber was filled ~1.4 L L-H2.

  26. 20 l Absorber cooling test at KEK (1) Assemble *Level sensors at bottom, 2 Cernox and 1 PtCo on body *Lead wires pass through at the LH2 condenser *window seal; d=1 mm Indium (1 loop) *8 G10 (t=5) supports *MLI set; Al-Mylar 9m x5 + Nylon Mesh x6 1 layer on windows and G10 supports 4 layers on body ~2 layers on flexible pipes. (2) Vacuum and Leak Test *Leak at 300K  disassemble  found pinhole at a Helicoflex KF25  changed  recovered *vacuum; 3 x 10^(-6) Torr after 3 days, 300K

  27. 20 l Absorber cooling test at KEK (continued) (3) Cooling Test #1 Sep-14, ‘06 *cryocooler cooling 82 hrs; 300  20K *solid air blocking at the 1st stage heat exchanger  H2 impurity after 2 years operation for LH2 target  changed gas-H2 1.5 atm in the 2,000 L tank (4) Cooling Test #2 (same assemble) Sep-22, ‘06 *restart with LN2 pre-cooling  leak from N2 to vac. at ~200K  stop LH2 filling *restart cryocooler w/o LN2 from 230K, takes 60 hrs from 230K to 20K *liquefied ~1.5 l H2 ( 1.5  0.9 atm 2,000 L tank) *measured H2 condensation and evaporation speed

  37. 20 l Absorber H2 liquefaction test at KEK (LH2 1.425 l liquefied) H2 Press. (Torr) CX REF. 2nd.(ohm) PtCo Abs. (K)*10 CX0-calib. (K) *10 LH2 Temp_P. (K) *10 CX REF. 1st. (ohm) L-H2 in pipe L-H2 in body

  38. 20 l Absorber H2 liquefaction test at KEK GH2 <Question> Level sensors In LH2 at same time?  G10 support was turned down? LH2

  39. Temperature by H2 pressure Cernox vs. H2-pressure In LH2 Condenser Cernox vs. H2-pressure In Absorber Temperature measurements by H2 pressure is possible within error.

  40. Liquefaction and Vaporization of LH2 in 20 l Absorber 2000 l tank 0.30 l / h , 2.6 W 1.33 l / h , 11.7 W  68 hrs to fill 20 l LH2 1.43 l Cooling stop

  41. Summary 1/2 (Absorber Cooling Test) (1) Cooling time (300K  20K) > 82 hrs by cryocooler only (not yet tested with LN2 pre-cooling)  Needs LN2 pre-cooling (2) Condensation speed; 0.30 l / h , 2.6 W  68 hrs to fill 20L  Needs better insulation to obtain shorter filling time (3) Evaporation speed ~ heat leak; 1.33 l / h , 11.7 W (2)+(3) = 14.3 W ; net cooling power at absorber LHe absorber required QL(heat leak) < 1.5 W@4.2K  LHe Absorber needs additional L-He supply ?

  42. Summary 2/2 (Future Plan) (1) Cooling test with LN2 pre-cooling > Cold leak test and fix the LN2 channel > Open the window and check the level sensors  repair if it needs > Add PtCo thermometer on the dummy bore and in the condenser (2)Improvement of absorber insulation > design G-10 support, MLI .... * Until QL < 1.5 W@4.2K for the LHe absorber, if possible ? * Larger cooling power margin makes shorter filling time and easier operation for the LH2 absorber.
