Abstract
The heavy ion accelerator that will be built in Daejeon utilizes four types of superconducting cavities. Cryomodules holding the superconducting cavities in them supply thermal insulation for cavities operating in 4.3 K or 2.1 K. A Prototype of cryomodule which holds two HWR (Half Wave Resonator) cavities was fabricated and tested. Since the operating temperature of the HWR is 2.1 K, the superfluid helium was generated with warm vacuum pumping system. The cyromodule was successfully cooled down below lambda point temperature of helium and any detectable leak was not observed during the test. The static thermal load at 4.2 K was measured. The result and the experience for the cool-down below lambda point of helium are reported in this paper.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Superconductivity and Cryogenics is the official publication of The Korea Institute of Applied Superconductivity and Cryogenics and the Korean Superconductivity Society. It was launched in 1999, and accepts original research articles and review papers on research on superconductivity and related fields of physics, electronic devices, materials science, large-scale applications for magnets, power and energy, and cryogenics. The Journal is published quarterly in March, June, September, and December each year. Supplemental issues are published occasionally. The official title of the journal is ''Progress in Superconductivity and Cryogenics'' and the abbreviated title is ''Prog. Supercond. Cryog.'' All submitted manuscripts are peer-reviewed by two reviewers. The text must be written in English. All the articles in this journal are KCI and SCOPUS as of 2015. The URL address of the journal is http://psac.kisac.org where full text is available. This work was supported by the Korean Federation of Science and Technology Societies grant funded by the Korea government.
