  1. NCSX PEERREVIEW THERMO-HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS OF VACUUM VESSEL COOLING & HEATING P Goranson 3/3/04

  2. GOAL • DETERMINE SIZE AND NUMBER OF COOLANT LINES • THERMO-HYDRAULIC PARAMETERS • VIABILITY OF DESIGN

  3. REQUIREMENTS/CRITERIA • VV BAKED AT 350 C • MAINTAINED 20-40 C BEFORE AND AFTER OPERATION • 15 MINUTE REP RATE DURING OPERATION • FULL UPGRADE HEATING – 12 mw FOR 1.2 S

  4. ASSUMPTIONS • Heat Input and Output Based on DAC NCSX-CALC-121-03-00_dA, Heat Balance of the NCSX Vacuum Vessel During Operation and Bakeout. - 17 kW during bakeout - 16 kW average during cooling • VV temp rise 11.7 K during shot, evenly distributed. • Helium coolant

  5. CONFIGURATION • Dual tubes on common brackets - Grafoil gaskets - copper alloy pads • Increases heat transfer area • Decreases diameter - easier bending - smaller envelope • 16 pairs on half period (192 total tubes) Tracing Mount Detail Typical Field Period

  11. Coolant tube THERMAL RESPONSE ANALYSIS Hand calculation using finite slab, cooled at edges • L = 4 inches • t = 0.375 inches • Constant heat transfer coef. at tube( from chart) • Constant starting temperature across plate t 2L

  12. HELIUM COOLED VESSEL RATCHETING TEMPERATURE AS A FUNCTION OF COOL DOWN TIME 60 55 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 TIME (MIN) VESSEL RATCHETING Vessel ratchets to 40 C at steady state End of cool down

  13. RESULTS SUMMARY, INCLUDING 3-D ANALYSIS

  14. CONCLUSIONS • 1/4” Tubes give inadequate mass flow • 10 Atmos Helium inadequate - 20 Atmos Helium required • 5/16” Tubes permit baking and cooling with large margin - small pressure drop - moderate flow velocity - moderate temperature drops • Vessel does not return to start temperature - Ratchets beyond 40 C with present bracket spacing

  15. CAVEATS • Additional ports have been added. • Tubes must be reconfigured, lengths changed somewhat • 3-D analysis of brackets indicates tube spacing or operation must change if GRD is to be accommodated.
