HiRadMat TESTS Collimation-Related HiRadMat Tests in 2012 to be performed with high intensity beam • HRMT-09: involving a Phase I Tertiary Collimator (TCTH) (w32: 06/08-10/08) Motivation: to investigate the robustness of complete collimators in case of beam accidents • HRMT-14: involving a series of material samples of simple geometrical shape mounted on a multi-material sample holder (w44: 29/10-02/11) Motivation: to assess the performances of different materials in extreme conditions
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Purpose of tests on a fully assembled TCTH collimator • Verification of robustness and integrity of metallic jaw collimators following direct beam impact • Benchmarking of simulations • Assessment of whether a collimator needs to be replaced following an accident during LHC operation
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR TCTH CollimatorJaw • Jaw Material: Tungsten (INERMET 180) • Support Material: Copper • Jaw Skrews: Stainless Steel • Total Length: 1 m + 0.2 m • Two Jaws enclosed in vacuum tank • 2 motors per Jaw for position + tilt • 5th axis for vertical position(max: +/- 10 mm)
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Experiment Instrumentation • 5x Stepper motors (with Resolver) : MACCON SM87.2.18MN Z280 , 2A (LHC collimator type) • 7x position sensors (LVDT) : Measurement specialties HCA2000 (LHC collimator type) • 12x End-position switches: SAIA-BURGESS V3FN (LHC collimator type) • 4x jaws temperature sensors: CAP IT PT100 ceramic sensor (LHC collimator type) • 2x collimator tank temperature sensors: MINCO S100820PDXK100A Polyimide PT100. • 2x water temperature sensors: CONDUSTRIE-METAG AG PT100 (LHC collimator type) • 2x water pressure sensors: SENSORTECHNICS GMBH CTE9000 series (signal 4-20mA) • 2x vacuum pressure sensors (Piranni / Penning HV)
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR ControlApplication FESA class and control Application was adopted for the HRM experiment (G. Valentino, A. Masi and Team)
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR HRM Layout • TCTH Collimator pre-assembled on experimental table in BA7 • Quick Plug connections similar to LHC collimators • Installation and Removal remotely with crane Beam direction Table 3 Table 2 TCTH Table 1
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Beam Parameters • Beam-based collimator setup using low-intensity bunches (pilot bunch with 5 x 109ppb) – also for integrity check of Jaw surface after Test 1 • Collimator gap equivalent to TCLA gap (smallest gap representing most critical scenario) ~ 3.3mm • Beam parameters for the irradiation tests: bunches of 0.5mm round beam at collimator jaw entrance face (beam size equivalent to beam size at TCTH location), 1.5 x 1011 ppb intensity, 440GeV • Impact parameter: 2mm • Approval of tests by RP (EMDS Document No.: 1211483)
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Overview on Tests • Test 1 – Design Error Case: Asynchronous beam dump in operation or during collimator setup (with 1 nominal LHC bunch). • Test 2 – Low-Intensity shot just below damage limit to collect reference data to assess damage thresholds. • Test 3 – Disruptive Scenario for asynchronous dump (to be carried out only if it is shown that the results from Test 1 are not compromised).
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Test 1 – Effects of Asynchronous Beam Dump • Aim: investigate effect of an asynchronous dump involving the direct impact of 1 nominal LHC bunch on 1 collimator jaw • A shot with about 20 high intensity HiRadMat bunches (1.5x1011 ppb at 440GeV) will be performed at jaw entrance face on Jaw 1 (FLUKA simulations by L. Lari confirmed same energy deposition peak) 5th axis down 10 mm
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Test 2 –Reference Shot below Damage Limit • Aim: Further assessment of the damage threshold of the jaw material. • Low-intensity shot (3-4 high intensity bunches at 1.5 x 1011 ppb at 440Gev) on Jaw 1 • Such impact will not evoke any beam-induced damage (maximum temperature expected to stay 80% below melting temperature of pure tungsten). Vertical jaw position to upper out-switch. 5th axis up 10 mm
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Test 3 –Disruptive Effects of asynchronous beam dump • Aim: To benchmark simulation results presented at Chamonix against experimental results • Simulation results anticipated that 4 LHC bunches (1.3 x 1011 ppb) at 5TeV on a TCT would cause jaw damage together with severe plastic deformations on the cooling pipes • FLUKA simulations by L. Lari showed we need around 50 bunches with 1.5 x 1011 ppb at 440GeV to be equivalent to this case • Jaw 1 will be taken out completely for this test. 5th axis up 10 mm
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Summary • Further manualanalysis after necessary activation cool-down period (t.b.d.)
TESTS ON TCT COLLIMATOR Schedule • Vacuum and Instrumentation test • Pre-Assembly on Experimental table in BA7 • Control and Data Logging • Installation in HRM experimental area – W31 (this week) • Tests at HRM – W32 • Storage (behind HRM Beam Dump) – W33 for at least 4 months
MICROPHONES AT HRM Installation Layout • MicrophoneUp- and Downstream forsignalcorrelation (estimatelocationofimpact) • BackUpMicrophoneca30m UpstreamatPatchRack • Hydrophone (takenfrom LHC installation) – Underwatermicrophone in air, R2E testofsensor
MICROPHONES AT HRM Purpose of Sound Analysis • Can we (roughly) localize Impacts with correlation measures between two or more microphone signals? • Sound Pressure Level -> Amplitude of pressure wave • Spectral Components -> Damage/ no damage? • Investigate limitations of the system (EM noise, R2E) Application: Impact detection and localization at LHC collimators!
