Support system:

  • Presentation from Mateusz on alignment dynamic behaviour and cross-talk between degrees of freedom
  • Concern on bellows deformation during alignment
    • A piece for tests will be soon available [Teddy]
    • Calculations [Carlo]
    • Would be nice to monitor/test loads at some stage during integration [Mateusz]
  • Do not forget that the tank must be misaligned at warm to account for the thermal contraction. Can we confirm the exact number?
  • Info from Tom on updated modal analysis
  • The aim would be to raise the fundamental mode above 15 Hz (we are a few Hz below)
    • Blocking screws for the alignment plate are ok [Tom]
    • Alignment plate can be thicker, where possible [Tom]
    • The tuner system rotates around the vertical axis. Add blades [Tom]

 

Shields

  • Presentation from Nik with extra penetrations for cable routing and an optimized pipeline
  • The 2 concepts (Al vs. Cu) are still developed in parallel. Detailed comparison in slides.
    • Cu: bad tolerances, modes close to dressed cavity modes (~15 Hz)
    • Al: very high temperature at intercepts locations on pipe (if confirmed, this would be a show-stopper for this concept)
    • Plates temperature profile is good in both cases
  • Preliminary high stress at pipe-to-plate contact. To be checked with a more realistic cool-down profile and taking into account that the contact may trigger numerical errors (peak values)
  • Magnetic: Carlo asked to provide a draft with updated dimensions and penetrations. 
There are minutes attached to this event. Show them.
