Sumario: | Within the EURISOL DS project of the 6th Framework Program the METEX1 experiment will be carried out in the Hg-loop at IPUL to test the target mockup developed and built by PSI. The tests should demonstrate the feasibility of such a target to cope with the hydraulic conditions required to manage a 4 MW proton beam. The flow conditions have been extensively modeled by CFD calculations and the experiment serves to validate such calculations. The mockup has been built at PSI applying strict quality rules with respect to conformance of design, inspection of welds. The mockup has been pressure tested at 12.5 bar prior to shipment.The Hg loop has been modified by IPUL to comply with the test requirements (see [1]). The necessary quality checks have been carried out in the February of 2008 at a pressure of 7 bar.The endeavor is a joint undertaking of the Task 2 partners CERN, IPUL and PSI. |
