Talk Cryogenic Safety Knowledge Transfer

Speaker

Mr Sebastian Protz (Independent)

Description

Kryolize is a novel software tool to a harmonized approch for sizing the minimum discharge area of safety devices for cryogenic installations. This talk will give an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes how a standard compliant software containing the latest results of research in the field of cryogenics at CERN can be developed. Starting from a collection of formulas the new software tool needs to fulfill certain requirements to allow a wide dissemination not only across the scientific community but also for the industrial sector, thus providing solid core development as well as a user friendly interface. This includes the optimization of the program flow as well as the development and efficient implementation of sophisticated approximation algorithms for a time saving and effortless user experience.
