An experimental study was completed on the heat transfer induced by a single elongated vapor bubble rising in vertical, upward, co-current flow at various accelerations. The bubble shape and behavior were also studied under those conditions. Tests were con ...
Electron cloud effects, which include heat load in the cryogenic system, pressure rise, and beam instabilities, are among the main intensity limitations for the LHC operation with 25 ns spaced bunches. A new observation tool was proposed and developed to m ...
This two-part paper presents experimental work to characterize thermal and hydraulic performances of a compact plate heat exchanger. Upward single-phase heat transfer and pressure drop of low pressure, liquid refrigerants R245fa and R236fa was investigated ...
MgB2 wire is a promising superconductor for the superconducting links for the high-luminosity upgrade of the large Hadron collider at CERN. The mechanical properties of MgB2 must be fully quantified for the cable design, and in this study, we evaluate the ...
Spurred by the question of the maximum allowable energy for the operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we have progressed in the understanding of the thermo-electric behavior of the 13 kA superconducting bus bars interconnecting its main magnets. A ...
Pulsating heat pipes (PHPs) represent a promising solution for passive on-chip, two-phase cooling of micro-electronics, providing advantages such as a simple construction and operation in any gravitational orientation. Unfortunately, the unique coupling of ...
High-temperature superconducting coated conductors (HTS-CCs) are good candidates for resistive superconducting fault current limiter (RSFCL) applications. However, the high current density they can carry and their low thermal diffusivity expose them to the ...
The operation of Nb–Ti superconducting magnets in He II relies on superfluidity to overcome the severe thermal barrier represented by the cable electrical insulation. In wrapped cable insulations, like those used for the main magnets of the Large Hadron Co ...
We demonstrate in this paper how to use direct modeling of heat transfer and circuital equations based on "packaged" simulation tools to produce a model suitable for the study of quench propagation in a system of magnetically coupled solenoids protected wi ...
