Forwarded to EPC RQS.L5B2: TT893>324 K, ELQA informed RQT13.R5B1:QPS A&B frozen RSD1.A56B2: minor issue due to electrical interference RQS.A56B2: U_RES saturation, forwarded to QPS RCBXH2.R5: CL cooling problems RQSX3.R5: CL cooling problem RSBXV1.R5: CL cooling problem RCBYHS5.R8B1:Repetitive quenching at 64 A, I_nom reduced to 20 A Arjan Verweij, MP3 meeting 5/3/2013
RCBXH3.L5: Instrumentation error (polarity swap), fully commissioned to I_nom RCSSX3.L1: 3 Q at about 64 A, I_PNO reduced to 60 A RCBXH3.L5: 300 K regulation problem, forwarded to ELQA RCO.A78B2: special ELQA to be done Pyramids to 20 A and 58 A done. V(I)=R is notlinear. Diagnostics in the tunnel to better localize the defect(s). See presentation Mateusz. RD2.L1: Quench at 3884 A during ramp up with very slow developing U_RES. MBRC working at 4.5 K with I_nom=4400 A. Seems quench in both busbars, triggered by a mechanical movement. DFBLA together with RQ6.L1, RQ5.L1 and RQ4.L1. RQ4.L1 goes in SPA, then its bus heats up due to RD2.L1 and then quenches 8 sec after RD2.L1. Special powering cycles with I_nom in D2, Q4, Q5, and Q6 passed without quenching. Special powering cycles with I_nom in D2, Q4, and Q5 and 55-100% in Q6.B1/B2 passed without quenching. Arjan Verweij, MP3 meeting 5/3/2013
Special tests RQ6.L8: heater induced quench at 2500 A (for comparison with signals during beam induced quench) 20-30 FPA tests at various currents. Motivation: have more experimental data to compare to PSpice & Roxie simulations. EDMS 1261814 About 10 FPA tests with smaller energy extraction resistance on RQTD.A34B1 Motivation: reduce quench-back & reduce ELQA voltage. EDMS 1264959 Arjan Verweij, MP3 meeting 5/3/2013
New PNO values RD3.L4: reduced from 5850 to 5600 A (but can be trained to 5850 if needed) RQ5.R2: reduced from 4310 to 4100 A (but can be trained to 5850 if needed) RQTL9.R3B2: reduced from 450 to 425 A RQTL11.R5B1: reduced from 550 to 450 A RQTL11.L6B1: reduced from 400 to 350 A RCBYHS5.R8B1: reduced from 72 to 20 A RCSSX3.L1: reduced from 100 A to 60 A ROD/F in all sectors reduced from 600 to 590 A RSD/F in S81, S12, S45, S56 reduced from 600 to 590 A Arjan Verweij, MP3 meeting 5/3/2013
Follow up: • Analysis special FPA tests (action: Daniel Rasmussen). • IPQ’s & IPD’s: Is the training now faster, similar, or slower than in 2007/8 and as compared to reception tests? If training is getting worse, should we recommend MSC to have a spare ready? Especially important for RD3.L4. (action: Sandrine) • 600 A circuits: Is the training now faster, similar, or slower than in 2007/8 and as compared to reception tests? • What is the reason of the quenches on plateau. Why do they occur a lot in the RQTD/F circuits? (action: Michele) • RCO.A78B2. Do we recommend repair? (action: Mateusz) • What about the quenches in RCBYHS5? Are there more circuits similar to this one? Can we operate with reduced currents or should we recommend replacement? Is there a risk that the circuits degrade in time? (action : Bernhard) • Presentation at TE-TM on 19/3: Presentations from EPC (Valerie), QPS (Jens or Reiner), MP3 (Sandrine and Arjan). • Presentation LMC. Arjan Verweij, MP3 meeting 5/3/2013
Follow up (more general): • While analysing the tests in the CCC it became clear that: • We need an easy-to-use database with all quench data from the past, and in which we can easily put new quench data in. • Many tests can be analysed fully (or at least more) automatically. Check of temperature regulation in the DFB, check of splice resistances, …. Do we continue with the LabView tools or develop new analysis tools? • Results from the past (NC’s, HWC results, QPS settings, PC characteristics, quenches, …) should be easily retrievable, preferably classified per circuit type & circuit. • We need to build a library with example plots of typical events (magnet quench, bus quench, current lead quench, FPA, PC trip) for each circuit type, and with a PM example from the past (if available).
