Overview Inner Barrel Outer Barrel x/X0 < 0.3% per layer x/X0 < 0.8% per layer Wound-truss structure. Concept for outer layers (4-5, 6-7), based on the high-conductivity plate cooling idea. Wound-truss structure with high-conductivity plate. CFD Meeting - 25th January 2013
Cooling system: constraints • Refrigerant maximum velocity: • Avoiding failure by erosion. • Minimizing pressure drop. • No specific recommendations found for such small plastic pipe: • ASHRAE Handbook: not exceeding 1.5 m s-1 would minimize effects of erosion. • Catheters use similar pipes and materials. • 8.5 French gauge catheter (2.8 mm OD, ~1.5 mm ID) cordis/introducer 1. • Max. flow rate: 126 mL min-1 = 7.56 L h-1 = 1.18 m s-1 • Max. flow rate w/ p. bag @300 mmHg: 333 mL min-1=19.98L h-1 = 3.1 m s-1 • Damage by erosion in a plastic pipe could be roughly estimated by assessing the material hardness and compared to that of a regular copper pipe (but degradation?). • Admissible pressure drop: • Single-phase cooling: depends on the cooling system design. • Two-phase cooling: must be kept low to ensure the minimum ΔTSatacross stave. • Admissible ΔTRefrigerant across stave: • Related to stave temperature uniformity. • In a two-phase cooling system, should not decrease a lot (risk of going below dew point). 1Source: http://emupdates.com/2009/11/25/flow-rates-of-various-vascular-catheters/ CFD Meeting - 25th January 2013
Where are we? Inner Barrel • Successful proposal (up to 0.5 W cm-2) • Several prototypes for test: • Pipe ID = 1 mm • Squeezed pipes • K1100 Plate (λ ~ 1000 W m-1 K-1) No prototype performed OK (0.3 W cm-2) A last prototype with larger winding angle will be available for test CFD Meeting - 25th January 2013
Where are we? Inner Barrel • Pipe dimensions: • Initially: ID = 1.450, OD = 1.514 mm • Reason: winding CF around pipe without breaking it (wound-truss structure). • Used as well for the wound-truss structure with high conductivity plate. • Pipe ID could be reduced from the refrigerant viewpoint (water/C4F10). • Constructively possible in High-conductivity plate prototype! • Reduced pipe ID prototype: ID = 1.024, OD = 1.074mm: TO BE TESTED!! • Pipe ID optimization: consider: • Different cooling system layouts. • Refrigerants. • Pipe erosion. • Pipe material: • So far: only polyimide (Kaption®) has been taken into consideration and used for the construction of prototypes. • Concerns: • Pipe integrity? • Mechanical stiffness? (in case of making the U-bend without connectors). • … CFD Meeting - 25th January 2013

Current design options • 6 possible designs. • 4 with water • 2 with C4F10 Water in single-phase orC4F10 two-phase. Leak-less or no connectors. Single pipe or U-pipe per stave. • Goal: assess the minimum pipe diameter for each of these designs. • Assuming reasonable operating conditions and respecting constraints. • Comparing with experimental results.
