Fermilab is conducting horizontal cryogenic testing of Q1/Q3 Cryo-Assemblies for the high-luminosity LHC upgrade (HL-LHC). Cryo-Assemblies are installed on the upgraded Fermilab horizontal test stand previously used for testing the LHC inner triplet quadrupoles. The cryogenic process requirements of these tests include controlled cool-down and warm-up with a 100 K maximum temperature...
The NML cryogenic plant cools two individually cryostated superconducting radio frequency (SRF) capture cavities and one prototype ILC cryomodule with eight SRF cavities. This complex accelerates electrons at 150 MeV for the Integrable Optics Test Accelerator (IOTA) ring, located at the Fermilab Accelerator Science and Technology (FAST) facility. The cryogenic plant is composed of two nitrogen...
The High Field Vertical Magnet Test Facility (HFVMTF) is an advanced experimental platform currently under construction at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). Designed to test large superconducting magnets weighing up to 20 tons and measuring up to 1.3 meters in diameter, the facility features a double-bath superfluid helium cryostat capable of reaching temperatures as low as 1.8 K...
A state-of-the-art binary fluid test bench has been developed enabling advanced experimentation with single and binary fluids across a wide range of thermodynamic conditions. The facility accommodates experiments with all fluid concentrations, ambient temperatures spanning 100 K to 600 K, and pressures between 1 bara and 10 bara. The system features dual inputs for binary gases and a third...
