NA62 Gigatrackercoolingrequirements • Gigatracker (GTK) modules will operate in vacuum and under highradiation • Module hastobereplaced on a regularbasis • Cooling system required to avoid performance loss • The operation temperature for thefrontendelectronics will be 5°C orlower • Low material budgetforthecoolingsystem
Gigatracker Module supportandalignementstructure Coolingplate Readoutchip (12.5 x 20 mm), heatproduction ca. 3.2W per chip (2 W/cm2) beam direction Sensor, siliconpixels (27 x 60 mm) 3D schematicdrawing of the GTK module
Materials in thesensorarea The total material budget (material in the beam) allowedfor the GTK module is 0.5% X0(radiation length).
Coolingsystemsunderinvestigation • carbonplate, conductivecooling • convectivecooling in a vessel • microchannels
Ourproposal: Microchannelcooling • Goals ofdevelopment: • Integration ofmicrochannelsintofrontendelectronics • Cooling via an separate coolingplatewithmicrochannels • 150mm thickness • 300mm thickness • Benefits: • Uniform temperaturedistribution in theareatobecooled • Small DT betweencoolantandreadoutchip => reduced thermal stress • Single-phaseandtwo-phasecoolingpossible • Technology studiedat EPFL with strong supportofindustrialpartners • Mutual understandingtoshareknowledge (EPFL <> CERN) • Specifityofourapplication: • Verylow material budget • Low heatflux
Tentative layoutofmicrochannelsfortheGigatracker • areatobecooled ~40 x 60mm • channellength ~40mm • channelcrosssection 50mm x 50mm • separationwalls 25mm thick • heatflux in thecoolingregion 2W/cm2 • Support and Connection ofservicesoutside the sensor area and on one side • Single-phasecooling • Open pointsforthe prototype: • U-shapedchannelsorsinglelinechannels (pressureloss <> massflowneeded) • Thermal connectionofthereadoutchiptothecoolingplate
C6F14 cooling liquid ofchoice • radiationhard • thermallyandchemicallystable • nonflammable, nontoxic, nonconducting • knownandusedat CERN (CMS and Atlas Tracker) • used in liquid phase
