TUPP37 | Machine-Learning Based Temperature Prediction for Beam-Interceptive Devices in the ESS Linac | 306 |

’Where there is great power [density], there is great responsibility*.’ The concept holds true especially for beam-intercepting devices for the ESS linac commissioning. In particular, beam-intercepting devices will be subject to challenging beam power densities, stemming from proton energies up to 2 GeV, beam currents up to 62.5 mA, pulses up to few milliseconds long, and repetition rates up to 14 Hz. Dedicated Monte Carlo simulations and thermo-mechanical calculations are necessarily part of the design workflow, but they are too time-consuming when in need of rapid estimates of temperature trends. In this contribution, the usefulness of a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) was explored in order to forecast (in few minutes) the bulk temperature of beam-interceptive devices. The RNN was trained with the already existing database of MCNPX/ANSYS results from design studies. The feasibility of the method will be exemplified in the case of the Insertable Beam Stop within the Spoke section of the ESS linac.
