Thermal transient analysis of TI8 tunnel

The TI8 tunnel will house a proton beam transfer line of 450 GeV from the SPS to the LHC collider. This line will comprise 340 classical compact design magnets which are expected to dissipate about 120 W/m to the air along the tunnel.

Sumario:The TI8 tunnel will house a proton beam transfer line of 450 GeV from the SPS to the LHC collider. This line will comprise 340 classical compact design magnets which are expected to dissipate about 120 W/m to the air along the tunnel. As the ventilation injection and extraction points are separated by approximately 2.5 Km (the length of the tunnel), a significant increase in the air bulk temperature is expected along the distance. This report presents an estimation of the air temperature evolution with time at the end of the tunnel.
