	A new beam dump has been designed, which withstands the future proton beam extracted from the PS Booster at CERN, consisting of up to 10¹⁴ protons per pulse at 2 GeV after its upgrade in 2018/2019. In order to be able to efficiently release the deposited heat, the new dump will be made out of a single cylindrical block of a copper alloy and be cooled by forced ventilation. In order to determine the energy density distribution deposited by the beam in the dump, Monte Carlo simulations were performed using FLUKA, and thermo-mechanical analyses carried out by importing the energy density into Ansys. In addition, CFD simulations of the airflow were carried out in order to accurately estimate the heat transfer convection coefficient on the surface of the dump. In this paper we describe the design process and highlight the constraints of integrating a new dump for increased beam power into the existing facility.

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is actively engaged in identifying technologies developed for its accelerator complex that could be profitably used by partner research organizations or commercial companies in applications with potentially high socio-economic impact beyond pure fundamental physics research. In the first part of the paper, an overview of CERN current strategy in the field of Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Management will be presented, with details on the most effective models, implementation tools and processes developed to achieve satisfactory dissemination and valorisation of the knowledge generated within the Organization. In the second part, CERN currently available technology portfolio will be described with focus on cases originated from the Accelerator and Technology Sector. A selection of promising on-going projects embracing a variety of technology fields and application areas will be detailed to showcase technical challenges and possible benefits of initiatives driven by (but not limited to) the needs of CERN scientific programme.
