The 2nd Thermosyphon Workshop at CERN focuses on validating the thermosyphon concept through a low-cost, small-scale test. Key objectives include studying system behavior during startup, operation, and shutdown phases, as well as gaining operational experience. The setup features a thermodynamic cycle with an available height of 13m and a maximum pressure differential of 1.9 bar, with ongoing installation preparations and expected first results in 6 to 8 weeks. Advancements include received quotations and the initiation of pipe installations in Building 191.
