MOPE07 | Ground Motions Measurements for Synchrotron | ion, ground-motion, experiment, synchrotron | 15 |
|
|||
For more than two decades, ground vibration measurements were made by different teams for feasibility studies of linear accelerators. Recent measurements were performed in the SPS tunnel and at different CERN sites on the surface. The devices to measure vibrations of magnitude ranging in nanometres, the analysis techniques and the results are critically discussed and compared with the former measurements. The implication of the measured integrated R.M.S. displacements for the Crab cavities cavern is mentioned. The equipment used in this study consists of 2 state-of-the-art Guralp broadband triaxial seismometers. Models CMG-T60-0004 performed measurements in three directions V, N/S and E/W. The first analysis was to evaluate the power spectral density for each direction of sensors and event. The power spectral density is calculated from the auto power spectrum. The power spectral density shows a typical curve for the geophones with theμseismic peak between 0.2 and 0.4 [Hz]. It is import ant to point that ground vibrations should not be ignored in planning accelerator facility. Actually it is one of the limiting factor in the optimization of future accelerators. | |||

MOPE16 | Development of the RIXS Manipulator | ion, vacuum, scattering | 35 |
|
|||
The RIXS Manipulator (RIXS = Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering) is a further development of the Carving Manipulator. The carving manipulator has six independent degree of freedom. (Three translations and three rotations). All three rotations are exactly in the middle of the sample surface. The head of the manipulator is in UHV and the sample can be cooled down to 10K. For the RIXS manipulator there is a new requirement to have a field of view from 0-180°. There are mainly two parts in the carving manipulator that set the probe in the shadow of the beam at small angles. - A bellow - The bearings To solve these problems we shifted the bellow behind the pivot point. This give some strange movements of the bellows and we had to analyse this in a separate test installation. For the bearings, we developed a goniometer bearing with ceramic bearing shells. Meanwhile the RIXS manipulator is implemented and in routine operation | |||

MOPE26 | Front End Photon Shutter Water Leak to Vacuum at the Canadian Light Source | ion, photon, vacuum, cavity | 60 |
|
|||
In early July 2016 CLS experienced a water to vacuum leak in the storage ring. The source of the leak was a pin hole in the absorbing surface of Photon Shutter 1 in the front end of the HXMA Beamline. The leak was caused by high velocity cooling water erosion of the internal cooling water path of the copper photon shutter block. The poster will present the root cause analysis of the leak, implications for other identical photon shutters and currently in service and the current remedial action plan. | |||

MOPE42 | Experimental and Numerical Study of the ALBA LINAC Cooling System | ion, linac, experiment, cavity | 102 |
|
|||
This work investigates experimentally and numerically the performance of the ALBA LINAC cooling system. The main objective is to enhance the hydraulic system in order to significantly improve its thermal and water flow stability. In normal operation some problems have been identified that affect the performance of the LINAC: flowrate below the nominal values and water flow decreasing in time. The cooling subsystems have been experimentally characterized in terms of the pressure drop and flowrate. The measurements were taken using a portable hydraulic unit made at ALBA as well as a set of ultrasonic flowmeters. For the numerical studies the cooling network has been simulated using the software Pipe Flow Expert. The experimental results have shown that a number of components are too restrictive. In some cases the possibility to increase the flowrate is limited. The numerical results show that the velocity magnitude is inadequate in some places, producing air bubble entrapment, high pressure drop at pipes and insufficient flow. Based on this study several modifications are presented in order to raise the nominal flow and to adequate the water flow velocities between 0.5 and 3 m/s. | |||

MOPE43 | Hydraulic Failure Caused by Air in Pipelines of the Experimental Area Ring of ALBA Synchrotron Light Source: Research, Simulations and Solutions | ion, experiment, controls, simulation | 105 |
|
|||
After five years in operation of the ALBA Synchrotron Light Source a hydraulic failure caused a maximum decreasing of water flow about 40% of its nominal value, hampering the refrigeration of the local components. The problem was mainly caused by the air accumulated in pipes due to very low velocities of water flow. A literature review was conducted about the minimum water flow velocity for removing air in pipelines as design criteria. The aim of this work is to develop hydraulic solutions in order to achieve the minimum flowrate in pipelines of the Experimental Area (EA) ring. In the short term it is proposed to install a controlled bypass in the EA. A numerical simulation using the software Pipe Flow Expert has been implemented in order to determine the requirements of the bypass that works under different conditions to assure a minimum flowrate all along the ring. The velocity map in EA ring is simulated for different scenarios: 180 and 360 degrees distribution for both clockwise and anticlockwise rotation. For the long term a design of pipes with variable cross section is proposed which optimizes the flow velocity magnitude in EA ring in agreement with the design criteria. | |||

TUCA03 | Estimation of the Temperature Fluctuations Harshness Regarding Stability of Structures in the Nanometer Range | ion, experiment, ECR, simulation | 133 |
|
|||
Thermally induced distortions are a key contributor to the overall positional and pointing performance of high-stability systems. Though stability scales with temperature fluctuations, there is some hidden complexity is the subject. Firstly, not all temperature oscillations will distort the structure: fast variations will hardly propagate into the structure, little change in overall dimensions but primarily pointing errors. Conversely, slow variations will result in quasi uniform temperature fields that change dimensions, hence mainly positional errors. Secondly, there is randomness in temperature fluctuations which obscures the actual severity of a given environment: randomness occurs timewise, but also space-wise. For highly stable situations, random part of the temperature field becomes prominent, and discarding this component becomes questionable. No harshness indicator exists that could help quantifying the actual severity of a given thermal environment. It is the objective of this paper to provide some insight on the matter, and propose a simple yet efficient numerical method allowing the evaluation of actual structural response to any realistic thermal environment. | |||

TUPE01 | DMM Thermal Mechanical Design | ion, optics, detector, experiment | 152 |
|
|||
A Double Multilayer Monochromator (DMM) was designed in-house for the VMXi beamline. Thermal mechanical finite element analysis was performed to design a novel optic geometry, employing In/Ga eutectic cooling. The integration of a DMM into the existing beamline required additional power management components, such as a low energy power filter, a power detector and compact CuCrZr masks. This paper describes the thermal management challenges and their solutions. The DMM has been fully commissioned and is operational within the original I02 beamline. | |||

TUPE05 | Numerical Simulation of the ALBA Synchrotron Light Source Cooling System Response for Failure Prevention | ion, ECR, simulation, synchrotron | 162 |
|
|||
The ALBA Synchrotron Light Source cooling system is designed with a common return pipe that interconnects the four consumption rings. Such configuration is believed to compromise its optimal operation. To understand its thermo-fluid dynamic behaviour, a detailed 1D model has been built comprising all the components such as the pipes, fittings, bends, valves, pumping stations, heat exchangers and so on, and the various regulation mechanisms. Preliminarily, the model results in steady state operating conditions have been compared with experimental measurements and the maximum deviations have been found below 13%. Then, a series of transient numerical simulations have been carried out to determine the system response. Specifically, effects of the blockage and leakage of a consumption line as well as the increase and decrease of heat duty for the tunnel rings have been investigated. As a result, the stability of the system has been evaluated and the operational limits have been estimated in front of hydraulic and thermal load variations. Moreover, particular behaviors have been identified which can be used to design monitoring and control strategies to prevent unexpected failures. | |||

TUPE21 | CLSI BMIT’s Super-Conducting Wiggler Cryogenic Safety Improvements* | ion, wiggler, cryogenics, vacuum | 209 |
|
|||
4.1 T superconducting (SC) wiggler on CLS Biomedical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) beamline [1-4] developed a critical problem in the cryogenic safety relief and refill paths. Ice blockage formed and prevented helium gas from relieving during liquid helium (LHe) refill. This resulted in an internal pressure built up, which caused expelling of the LHe and cold gas helium (GHe) from the wiggler cryostat. Several improvements were performed over the years including replacement of the original rupture disk, the pressure relief valves and installation of metal O-ring seals at external ports. Following these improvements, a major upgrade on the wiggler safety relief path was implemented by adding a new vent pipe directly connected to the cryostat for safety exhaust. The LHe refill path was also modified to eliminate possibility of ice blockage. During initial tests after the up-grades, we experienced significant heat load increase which was linked to the thermal acoustic oscillations in the LHe transfer line. The problem was resolved by improving the insulation vacuum in the transfer line and adding a super insulation assembly into the direct vent pipe along with a plug at the refill path.

TUPE23 | Glidcop Brazing in Sirius’ High Heat Load Front-End Components | ion, vacuum, synchrotron, photon | 216 |
|
|||
Sirius is a 4th generation synchrotron light source in project. Some of Sirius’ beamlines will have a very high power density, more than 50 kW/mrad², to be dissipated in components that have a limited space condition. Thus, the refrigeration of these components is complex when one has in mind that the coolant flow cannot be too turbulent in order to not induce much vibration in the components. Oxygen Free Electrolytic Cu (OFEC) has been replaced by the Glidcop, on 4th generation synchrotron applications, due to its good thermal conductivity and preservation of mechanical properties after heating cycles. However, as this material is not very workable in terms of union with other materials, which led to the development of a brazing process for Glidcop and stainless steel union. Glidcop samples were submitted to a Cu-electroplating process and a silver base alloy (BVAg-8) was used to join the parts in a high vacuum furnace. Electroplating was used to improve the filler metal wettability. The results were very satisfactory, ensuring water and vacuum tightness. A desirable characteristic not yet proved is the virtual leak property. This paper will discourse about this brazing method. | |||

TUPE31 | Manufacturing of Photon Beam-Intercepting Components from CuCrZr | ion, vacuum, photon, synchrotron | 233 |
|
|||
Photon beam-intercepting components in synchrotron light sources have usually been made as water-cooled Glidcop bodies brazed to stainless steel conflate flanges. This fabrication method involves many manufacturing steps which result in increased cost, long procurement time and lower manufacturing reliability. A new design approach was recently proposed which simplifies fabrication by eliminating brazing and utilizes a readily available copper alloy, CuCrZr. This paper describes the manufacturing experience gained at NSLS-II from fabricating many components of this new design. Results of an investigation of various techniques for joining CuCrZr to itself and to SS304 and AL-6061 are also presented. | |||

WEPE01 | Combined Fixed Mask, Photon Shutter, Safety Shutter, and Collimator Design for BXDS IVU at the CLS | ion, radiation, photon, vacuum | 309 |
|
|||
Funding: Canadian Foundation for Innovation The first shutter assembly outside of the Front End (FE) for Brockhouse X-Ray Diffraction and Scattering Sector (BXDS) beamline required a unique design solution to accommodate all components into required safety shutter position. Located between the IVW high energy wiggler monochromator and POE1 wall, the total envelope size approximated 1m x 0.660m (LxW). Accommodating a smaller space required an alternative shutter design than traditionally used implemented at the CLS. The alternative proposed design combined the collimator (CLM), safety shutter (SSH), photon shutter (PSH) and Fixed Mask (FM) into one chamber. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was conducted on the FM and PSH assembly to verify that geometric designs were adequate for reasonable operation in the beamline. FEA was used to determine the steady-state thermal and static-structural response in both operating positions. Missteer was analyzed for both operating positions to a maximum of 2.5mm (commonly accepted missteer used at the CLS) from center. Finally, two extreme position (5mm) analyses were completed for determination of potential, but unlikely operating conditions. |

WEPE22 | F-Switch: Novel ’Random Access’ Manipulator for Large Numbers of Compound Refractive Lenses | ion, vacuum, FEL, alignment | 345 |
|
|||
The F-Switch is a new concept of device for the manipu-lation of large arrays of 2D CRLs or similar disc-shaped optical elements (12mm dia, 2mm thick) under high vac-uum. Unlike the well-known transfocator devices the optical elements are randomly selectable. This enables a number of potential modes of operation, including the fine adjustment of focal length by adjusting the effective lens centre position when using CRLs or the use of some positions within the array to implement filters or reference foils. Actuation and guidance is achieved within the thickness of the element, so that the overall length of the device is minimised. The device has been in user operation on the I04 MX beamline at Diamond Light Source (DLS) since 2015. Another device is being assembled for use on the I11 beamline at DLS. It is also hoped to install another device on the I03 beamline. We present details of the mechanical design of the F-Switch and some examples of its operation. | |||
