Olry, P. Duthil and P. Pierini -- 10. Cryogenics testing of elliptical cryomodules at ESS / Nuno Elias -- 11. Cryomodule testing at Uppsala University / R. Ruber and R. Santiago Kern -- 12. Lessons learned and final comments / J.G. Weisend II.Full-text restricted to subscribers or individual document purchasers.This book describes the design, construction and commissioning of the cryogenic systems at the European Spallation Source, a new Big Science Facility. It also describes the experiences and lessons learned in building a complex cryogenic system in a brand new laboratory with significant in-kind contributions. Cryogenics is a key enabling technology for ESS, playing a pivotal role in the accelerator, target and instrument systems. The ESS cryogenic system is both large and state-of-the-art. This book describes the ESS cryogenic system, including the evolution of the design, final design, procurement, construction, installation, commissioning and operating experience. Detailed design information and operating data will be provided. Lessons learned will be highlighted and the unique aspects of working in a brand new laboratory with significant in-kind contributions will be covered.Core readership will be professionals working in the fields of cryogenics and accelerator technology. The book will also be a useful reference source for students in cryogenic science and technology, with particular interest likely from libraries at major universities and big science labs (e.g. CERN, Fermilab, ITER). There are a number of large-scale science projects in China using cryogenics and this book will be of value to scientists and engineers working on these initiatives.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.John Weisend II is currently a Senior Accelerator Engineer at The European Spallation Source, Lund, Sweden. He is also an Adjunct Professor at Lund University. He received his PhD in Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he investigated engineering applications of He II. He has worked at the SSC Laboratory; the Centre D'Etudes Nucleaires Grenoble; the Deutsches Elecktronen-Synchrotron Laboratory (DESY); the Stanford Linear Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC); the National Science Foundation; and Michigan State University. Professor Weisend's research interests include He II and large-scale accelerator cryogenics. He is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Cryogenic Society of America (CSA). He has led the CSA Short Course Programme since 2001. He is Chief Technical Editor of Advances in Cryogenic Engineering. In addition to coauthoring more than 80 technical papers, Professor Weisend is the author of He is for Helium, as well as the co-author of Cryogenic Two-Phase Flow and Cryogenic Safety. He is the editor of the Handbook of Cryogenic Engineering and of Cryostat Design. He writes a regular column, "Cryo Bios", for the publication Cold Facts and is a member of both the Cryogenic Engineering Conference and International Cryogenic Engineering Conference Boards.Title from PDF title page (viewed on September 3, 2024).
