From GlueXWiki
Items for followup from previous meeting
- Power supply. Current ~ 15KA, voltage 5-10 V. (Could existing power supply 3KA/10V be converted to 6KA/5V?)
- Elton will obtain cost estimates for this power supply
- Cryogenic plant: Primary circuit: Forced flow He at 4.5K, < 10g/s, ~5-10 bar, pressure drop < 2 bar. Secondary circuit: Deliver intermediate temperature He gas at 20-70 K to HTS vapor cooled current leads
- Jonathan will investigate feasibility/cost of modifying existing refrigerator or purchasing new to deliver these requirements. Provide details to Ettore
- High-current HTS (17KA) vapor cooled leads
- Ettore will provide this information based on Sultan design
- Fast protection system (external), with response time of ~0.5 s. Commercial 4 parallel breakers 5KA each (20KA total), 2KV max. Two independent systems for redundancy.
- Ettore will obtain details of these existing systems.
Tentative Agenda
- Update on action items
- Input from MIT (Minervini)
- Path forward (Ettore)
