Menu • Integration of electronics • Cooling • Advantages of 2PCO2 • TRACI • Test on one module at NIKHEF • Test on 7 modules at DESY Test Beam • Spending • Future (AIDA 2?) TPC module integration
Integration of electronics • AFTER-basedelectronics (T2K) must beminiaturized to fit behind a module within 5cm and 0.25 X°. • This has been achieved (within AIDA) (62700 € in 2013) TPC module integration
This is for AFTER chips. Similarworkisbeingdonewith S-ALTRO Integrated electronics • Remove packaging and protection diodes • Wire-bond AFTER chips • Use two 300-point connectors Front-End Card (FEC) 25 cm 4.5cm 12.5cm 14 cm 3.5cm 2.8cm 0.78cm 3.5cm AFTER Chip 0.74cm • The resistive foil protects against sparks
COOLING: why 2-phase CO2? • Lowviscosityallowsverysmall pipe diameter and lowDP. • Very large latent heat and heatcapacitymakesit an excellent cooler • Can work at room temperature (avoidsdripping water by condensation) • Howeverneedsvery high pressures (50 bar for 20 degrees) TPC module integration
COOLING: why 2-phase CO2? TPC module integration
COOLING: TRACI • Weused the TRACI purchased by KEK and installed at DESY in February 2014. TPC module integration
COOLING: Tests at nikhef(1 module) TPC module integration
COOLING: Tests at nikhef(1 module) TPC module integration
COOLING: Tests at DESY (7 modules) TPC module integration
COOLING: Tests at DESY (7 modules) 7 temperature probes (1 per FEC, 1 FPGA) TPC module integration
SPENDING • The ‘plumbering for the coolingcosted about 22 k€ in 2014. • 100% of the spending for this has been used. The resultsoverpass the initial goals. TPC module integration
outlook • New materials. (Ex: TPG) lighterthan Al, withtwicebetter thermal conductivity • New technique (3D printing) allows micro-channels to bebuilt TPC module integration
Summary • A demonstration of full integration of an endplate meeting the requirements of a LC TPC has been made. • A first try of using 2PCO2 for a TPC has been made, showingthatthis solution isvery attractive. • This opens the way to furtherdevelopments, using new materials (TPG) and new techniques (3D printing) to getuniformtemperatureacross the endplate.
