Reliability Consideration During Commission or Machine Upgrade

  • Ken Baggett (Jefferson Lab)

Description

Reliability and availability requirements are taken into consideration before the design of systems and components is carried out. This is a common practice in many industrial applications and is becoming more common for projects in the accelerator domain. A systematic analysis of machine parameters and scenarios should serve as a basis to establish prediction and calculations to correctly dimension accelerator sub-systems and components. Knowing how to calculate reliability is important, but knowing how to achieve reliability is equally, if not more, important. Reliability practices must begin early in the design process and must be integrated into the overall product development cycle. This session will try to answer how to fold reliability considerations before and during a machine upgrade.

    Reliability Consideration Before / During Machine Upgrade
    Oral

    An overview of the power supply system installed during the EBS upgrade will be presented. The focus will be on the operation of the storage ring main magnet power supplies. A comparison between the old and the new power supply structure will be given. The current topology of the system and the main issues since the beginning of the EBS operation will be presented in detail. The description of...

    Reliability Consideration Before / During Machine Upgrade
    Oral

    With the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), an extension of the existing accelerator facility is being built at the GSI Helmholtz Centre in Darmstadt/Germany, which will increase the area of the research center by a factor of four. Within the framework of the project, a superconducting 100 Tm synchrotron, a superconducting fragment separator and 2 storage rings, as well as...

    Reliability Consideration Before / During Machine Upgrade
    Oral

    Future proton superconducting RF (SRF) linacs used as accelerator driven systems (ADS) must achieve high reliability and availability to meet the challenging parameters for applications in medical treatment, nuclear waste reduction, and nuclear power generation. What SRF innovations and advanced concepts are needed? To answer this question, a case study of the past, current, and possible...
