Cooling process of the LHC energy extraction resistors

The energy stored in all the LHC dipoles, about 11 GJ, can potentially cause severe damage to the magnets, bus bars and current leads. In order to protect the superconducting elements after a resistive transition, the energy is dissipated into dump resistors switched in series with the magnet chains...

description The energy stored in all the LHC dipoles, about 11 GJ, can potentially cause severe damage to the magnets, bus bars and current leads. In order to protect the superconducting elements after a resistive transition, the energy is dissipated into dump resistors switched in series with the magnet chains. This paper describes the cooling process of the resistors and explains the choice process for the main components of the cooling equipment.
