RPC Temperature Studies A. Cimmino
Temperature Studies • 310 temperature sensors are collocated throughout the barrel. • Temperatures are monitored by the RPC DCS system online • Values are written in OMDS with a 0.3°C dead band (sensor resolution). • Temperatures measured during Cruzet3 & 4 were analyzed and are here presented. • The behavior of each single sensor has been studied.
Average Temperature for 3 Wheels during Cruzet3 Wheel0 appears to be the hottest one at all times In 6 days the average temperature of the wheels increases of ~1 -1.5°C as you may see from the next slide 62 sensors/Wheel
Temperature Distribution for 3 Wheels at the beginning and end of Cruzet3 While the average temperature is below the critical value (23°C) our concern are due to these tails Black = 07/07/2008 2pm Red = 13/07/2008 2pm
Average Temperature Plot and Distribution for Reference sensors during Cruzet3 Compatible with a horizontal line
Possible heating sources • RPC FEB LVs • DT FEB & MiniCrate LVs • ECAL Cables(???)
What happens if RPC LVs are turned off? Slopes measured in °C/day (8.5 ± 1.1) * 10-2 (11.5 ± 1.3) * 10-2 (9.0 ± 1.2) * 10-2 (9.9 ± 1.3) * 10-2 (9.3 ± 1.1) * 10-2 DT minicrates ON ~1°C every 10 days of increase LVs OFF from 09/07/2008 7pm
What happens if DT LVs are off? Data from Cruzet4 DT LV off the entire period on Sectors 6 & 7 Wheel-2 RPC FEBs ON
DTemp with DT OFF & RPC ON Temperature increase distribution after 5 days with DT LVs OFF °C
Temperature with DT&RPC ON W-2 Sector 4 RB1in & RB1out ~ 2.5 °C of increase during Cruzet 4 week --------- ~1.5°C of increase in the first day Weekend = RPC ON & DT OFF DT ON – Cruzet4
Temperature of water during Cruzet 4 °C Sensor stopped reading ~2.5 hours
Cooling Schema Flow-limiters 1.5 liter/minute 1.5 x 50/2 = 37 l/min/wheel
