Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) is home to cyclotron-based high intensity proton accelerator facility HIPA, which presently delivers a maximum of 1.4 MW beam power. Detailed analysis on unexpected outages due to various failures is presented and how the failure rate of each subsystem evolved over the years. Main severe events (interlocks malfunction, vacuum, discharge problems, failures of...

The modeling of a nuclear facility is a necessary tool to define the radiological environment and to draw the rays map. This quantification is an important phase in the conception of a facility. It allows to know how the facility respects the safety constraints as well as the general operating for what it is authorized. This work presents S3 as an example of the modeled nuclear facility. S3...

The machine protection strategy at ESS is an important component in reaching the high availability goals of the facility. Machine protection at ESS follows a holistic functional protection lifecycle to define, analyze, implement, monitor, and adjust the different protection-related systems at the appropriate stage. One key pillar in this lifecycle is the fit-for-purpose protection analysis...
