  The European-XFEL, a 3.3 km long X-Ray laser facility, powered by a 17.5 GeV superconducting linear accelerator, is located at DESY in Hamburg [1]. For the diagnostics ultra-high vacuum components with high mechanical precision and strict requirements on particle cleanliness had to be developed, designed and produced. For the screen system of the facility, enabling to observe the size and shape of the electron beam, massive vessels, precisely milled out of stainless steel blocks 1.4435 (316L) have been produced. For these chambers all flange-connections are milled into these blocks. This paper will report onμdamages in these integrated knife edges and will present simulations of the damage mechanisms. It will also describe the influences of material properties of two different stainless steel brands, effects on the ¿knife edge¿ due to the penetration into the gaskets as well as the non-elastic deformation of the sealing area. The dependence of tightening forces under special conditions, like the very clean conditions in particle free applications due to the non-lubricated conditions will be reported. A ¿cooking recipe¿ to avoid suchμdamages will be given.

  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.

Hard x-ray polarisers are commonly applied in synchrotron radiation research to produce photons in a pure polarization state, and as polarization filters to analyse the photon’s polarization state after their interaction with a sample medium. We present the design of a mechanical assembly suitable for a hard X-ray polariser that requires multiple degrees of freedom with the base stage capable of handling at least 2-3 kg loads. The intermediary stages (roll, yaw, and translation directions) consist of commercially available tip/tilt and translational stages (Kohzu Precision Co., LTD). However, the requirements of the pitch stage are much more demanding and require a custom-designed flexure-based rotation stage. The design and analysis of this flexure-based rotation stage will be discussed in this study. This will include FEA analysis of the dynamic response and rotation range capabilities which will then be compared to mechanical performance test results using laser interferometers and accelerometer sensors.

TUCA03 Estimation of the Temperature Fluctuations Harshness Regarding Stability of Structures in the Nanometer Range ion, experiment, ECR, operation 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.

  National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center in Taiwan (NSRRC) had set up three cryogenic systems to provide liquid helium to superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities, insertion devices, and highly brilliant hard X-ray. The first one could produce liquid helium 134 LPH, with maximum cooling capacity of 469 W at 4.5 K. The second one could produce liquid helium 138 LPH, with maximum cooling capacity of 475 W at 4.5 K. The third one could produce liquid helium 239 LPH, with maximum cooling capacity of 890 W at 4.5 K. However, large liquid helium discharge in a closed space will cause personnel danger of lack of oxygen. We performed Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulation to analyse helium discharge through a SRF cavity in the Taiwan Light Source (TPS) tunnel. We simulated cases of helium discharge flow rates from 0.1 kg/s to 4.2 kg/s with and without fresh air supplied from the air conditioning system. We also set up both physical and numerical models within a space of 2.4m in length, 1.2m in width and 0.8m in height with nitrogen discharge inside to validate the CFD simulation.

  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.

  The ALBA Synchrotron Light Facility crotch absorbers, that remove the unused storage ring radiation, incorporate an internal cooling system composed by a number of parallel pinholes and by the corresponding stainless steel inner tubes inserted into each of them. Water flows in the resulting annular sections to evacuate the total heat power. Around each inner tube, a spiral wire is fixed along the whole length with a given pitch height in order to enhance the convection heat transfer. The influence of several design parameters on the absorber thermo-fluid behavior has been evaluated by means of the CFD software ANSYS CFX. In particular, the wall heat transfer coefficients and the pressure losses through a single pinhole have been evaluated for a range of different flow rates and pitch heights. Moreover, some modifications of the end wall geometry have been simulated as well as the effect of reversing the flow direction inside the channels. Finally, the critical crotch absorber type 3 has also been simulated and the limiting pitch height-flow rate combinations have been found based on the available driving pressure of the cooling system.

Designing photon absorbers for next generation multibend achromat storage rings can be challenging considering the high power densities and limited space that will typically be present. The potential for problematically high material temperatures and thermal gradients can be expected to be greater than that for previous generation machines on account of the shorter source-to-receiving surface distances. Conventionally, photon absorbers are made from copper which is highly opaque to x-rays. A consequence of this is that the majority of the heat is absorbed within a very short distance of the surface. Utilizing materials that allow a more volumetric absorption of the radiation can improve the efficiency of heat removal as it can keep surface temperatures and thermal gradients lower than would otherwise be possible. This paper discusses multiphysics analysis of a crotch absorber for the APS Upgrade project (APS-U) via full-coupling of heat-transfer and structural mechanics. The simulation results are discussed in detail.

  The cooling system of the race-track microtron (RTM), which is under construction at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), has been simulated by means of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. The hydraulic and thermal performance of the system has been studied for various operation conditions. Firstly, the hydraulic model has been validated by comparison with experimental measurements at different flow rates. Then, the cooling fluid temperatures and the pressure losses of the system have been determined and the capacity of the current design to remove the generated heat at nominal power has been confirmed. Finally, the wall maximum and average temperatures and heat transfer coefficients inside the magnets and the accelerating structure have been calculated. These results have allowed us to localize sections of the cooling system with a low convection due to detached flows where, therefore, a risk of zones of high temperatures exists. An optimization of the cooling circuit with the aim to reduce such high temperature zones has been proposed.

  The TPS 24A, Soft X-ray Tomography (SXT) beamline, is one of the beamlines in the second construction phase at the Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). This bending magnet (BM) beamline has high flux in the range between 260 eV and 2600 eV. It is designed for transmission full-field imaging of frozen-hydrated biological samples. At the exit slit, the beam flux optimized in 520 eV is 282 billion photons/second with resolving power 2000, the beam size is 0.05 mm × 0.06 mm (V × H, FWHM) and the beam divergence is 1.73 mrad × 1.57 mrad (V × H, FWHM). By contributions of the generic beamline components project in recent years, modular mechanisms would be used in this beamline such as mask, X-ray beam position monitor (XBPM), photon absorber (PAB), and screens. However, these beamline components were designed for ID beamlines, so they should be redesigned for BM beamlines. This paper generally introduce these beamline components decided and redesigned for the TPS 24A. They will play important roles at the BM beam-lines in the future.

  The ALBA Synchrotron Light Source cooling system is submitted to regular pump start-ups and shut-downs. Moreover, pumps can trip due to motor power failures. As a result, the piping system can be subjected to surges and pressure oscillations. The 1D thermo-fluid simulation software Flowmaster has been used to predict these transient conditions taking into account the fluid compressibility, the pipe elasticity, the characteristic time response of the check valves and the pump/motors moments of inertia. During pump start-ups, significant pressure rises are detected that can be reduced by readjusting the PID controller parameters. Unexpected pump shut-downs do not appear to provoke significant water hammer conditions. However, pressure fluctuations are generated mainly in the same pumping line but also in the rest of the system due to the particular common return configuration. In all the cases the pressure regulation mechanisms acting on the pump rotating speeds serve to attenuate the consequences of these transients. Finally, the feasibility of the model to simulate the effect on the system response of trapped air inside the pipes has also been evaluated.

  This work deals with the FEA study, design and optimization of the LOREA dipole vacuum chamber and Glidcop Al-15 crotch absorbers. At present LOREA is the ninth beam-line being designed at ALBA with an Insertion Device (ID) consisting of an Apple II-type helical undulator. For the standard dipole chamber the vertical polarized light hits the walls because of the very narrow vertical aperture between the cooling channels. In vertical mode the ID vertical divergence equals ± 2.2 mrad and the peak power density and total power are 5.6 kW/mrad² and 5.5 kW, respectively. Due to the high power a temperature as high as more than 600 °C is calculated. In consequence the dipole chamber has to be modified and the absorbers have to withstand the Bending Magnet (BM) and ID radiation. The new absorbers have to be thicker and its cooling channels are farer from BM power deposition than the standard absorbers. The thermal mechanical simulations show good results, the new absorbers are in a safe range, the maximum temperature, stress and strain are 309.2 °C, 164.2 MPa and 0.14%, respectively. The main ALBA Storage Ring design parameters used in the simulations are: 3 GeV, 400 mA and 1.42 T (BM).

The monochromator is known to be one of the most critical optical elements of a synchrotron beamline, since it directly affects the beam quality with respect to energy and position. Naturally, the new 4th generation machines, with their small emittances, start to bring about higher stability performance requirements, in spite of factors as high power loads, power load variation, and vibration sources. A new high-dynamics DCM (Double Crystal Monochromator) is under development at the Brazilian Light Source for the Sirius EMA beamline (Extreme Condition X-ray Methods of Analysis). In order to achieve high-bandwidth control and stability of a few nrad, as well as to prevent unpredicted mounting and clamping distortions, new solutions are proposed for crystal fixation and thermal management. Since the design is based on flexural elements, it should be indeed highly predictable, so that the work was developed using mechanical and thermal FEA, including CFD. Efforts were made to predict thermal boundaries associated with the synchrotron beam, including incident, diffracted and scattered power, for which the undulator spectrum was employed in the Monte Carlo simulation package - FLUKA *.

Lead enclosures have been used over the past decades for radiation protection at mid and high-energy synchrotron light-sources, requiring nearly 10% of the investment needed to set up a new beamline. Due to the increasing concern about neutron levels, in part due to the reduction of the photon radiation levels with the increased thickness of the hutch walls, the existing constructive models were revisited and a new constructive approach based on Carbon-Steel (CS) and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is proposed for the SIRIUS beamlines, leading to increased overall radiation protection and potentially lower cost. This work is going to show preliminary simulation results, cost-comparison, as well as a few mechanical design details and prototyping initiatives.

  The acoustic levitator utilizes two transducers that emit acoustic waves. A standing wave is generated between the two transducers that allows for the levitation of particles at the nodes of the standing wave. These levitated particles experience an instability. In order to aid in the process of solving this instability, the acoustic field created by one of the transducers was characterized in this experiment. This characterization helps to understand the intensity of the acoustic field at different points throughout the region and how the acoustic wave diverges as it travels away from the transducer.

MBA designs are placing stringent mechanical tolerances on the magnet support systems. At the APS-U the mag-net-to-magnet vibration tolerances are about 10 nm *. Timelines, installation requirements, and budgets constrain the resources available for prototyping and physical testing. Reliance on FEA to predict dynamic response is para-mount in insuring the tolerances are met. However, obtaining accurate results from a magnet support structure FEA is not as simple as analysing the CAD model of the structure. The 16th century author Nostradamus published a collection of prophecies that since his time, have been held up as predictions of various world events. While it is attractive to think his collection of short poems can be used to foretell the future, in reality it is only the vagueness and absence of any dates that make them easy to apply in a posthoc basis. Arguably, a similar statement can be made about the use of FEA in predicting accelerator support response. In this presentation the important contributors to FEA dynamic modelling will be discussed along with techniques that can be used to generate necessary data for models that can accurately predict response.

The basic problem for photon absorbers in a particle accelerator is to remove a large quantity of heat from a small space. Heat pipes and vapor chambers excel at precisely this so it is natural to consider them for the application. However, even though this technology has been proven to be an excellent thermal management solution for cooling everything from laptops to satellite shields in space, they have yet to be adopted for use in particle accelerators. The use of heat pipes and vapor chambers are thermal transport devices which work on the principle of capillary-force-driven two-phase flow. These devices are highly customizable and offer very high effective thermal conductivities (5,000-200, 000 W/m/K) depending on many factors including size, shape, and orientation. This paper discusses feasibility of the use of heat pipes and vapor chambers as the primary heat transport devices in particle accelerator photon absorbers. We discuss their limitations and advantages via careful consideration of analysis and simulation results assuming properties described in the literature and manufacturer specifications.
