MOPB054 | An Investigation of Correlations Between Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of High Purity Polycrystalline Niobium | niobium, SRF, experiment, software | 219 |
|
|||
Funding: This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of High Energy Physics, through Grant No. DE-FG02-09ER41638. An understanding of the relationship between mechanical and functional properties, and processing history is essential in order to manufacture polycrystalline niobium cavities with consistent performance. The crystallographic texture (preferred crystal orientation) and microstructure in polycrystalline sheet varies considerably, so identifying its influence on properties is needed to achieve a better understanding of how to control properties of high purity niobium. Samples extracted from many lots produced by Tokyo Denkai and Ningxia sheet were examined. Through-thickness texture of the undeformed niobium samples was measured using electron backscattered pattern mapping. Texture is identified with pole figures, orientation distribution function, and grain misorientation relationships. Stress-strain tests were done to identify ultimate tensile stress, elongation, 0.2% yield strength, and hardening rate. From tests on many lots, there is no clear trend between the mechanical and material properties in high purity niobium and correlations between various microstructural and mechanical properties show significant scatter and few apparent correlations. |

MOPB079 | Analysis of the Test Rate for European XFEL Series Cavities | cavity, vacuum, site, status | 316 |
|
|||
The main part of the superconducting European XFEL linear accelerator consists of 100 accelerator modules each containing eight RF-cavities. Before the installation to a module, all of these cavities will be tested at cryogenic temperatures in a vertical cryostat in the accelerator module test facility (AMTF) at DESY. This paper discusses the average vertical test rate at the present status. It should be 1 in the ideal case, but actually it’s observed to be approximately 1.5. Classification and analysis concerning the reasons for this deviation are given as well as suggestions for a reduction of the test rate for future production cycles. | |||

THPB032 | Release Processes and Documentation Methods During Series Treatment of SRF Cavities for the European XFEL by Using an Engineering Data Management System | cavity, data-management, SRF, linac | 1154 |
|
|||
For the European XFEL more than 800 superconducting cavities need to be treated. At least 65 quality documents per cavity have to be emitted and transferred to DESY by the vendor; two acceptance levels must be passed successfully to release a cavity for transportation to DESY. All quality documents, non-conformity reports and acceptance levels are automatically processed by using DESY’s Engineering Data Management System (EDMS). We summarize documentation methods, document transfer procedures, review and release processes; we describe the exchange of process information between customer and vendor; and report about experiences. | |||

THPB038 | XFEL Database Structure & Loading System | cavity, interface, linac, status | 1166 |
|
|||
XFEL database was designed to store cavity production, preparation, and test data for the whole LINAC on the very detailed level: from half cells up to module tests. To load this amount of data (more than 140 files per cavity) in automatic regime the special Data Loading System was developed. | |||

THPB039 | XFEL Database User Interface | cavity, GUI, controls, interface | 1168 |
|
|||
The XFEL database plays an important role for an effective part of the quality control system for the whole cavity production and preparation process for the European XFEL on a very detailed level. Database has the Graphical User Interface based on the web-technologies, and it can be accessed via low level Oracle SQL. | |||

THPB067 | HOM Coupler Notch Filter Tuning for the European XFEL Cavities | HOM, cavity, controls, resonance | 1274 |
|
|||
The notch filter (NF) tuning prevents the extraction of fundamental mode (1.3 GHz) RF power through Higher Order Modes (HOM) couplers. The procedure of NF tuning was optimized at the beginning of serial European XFEL cavities production. It allows keeping the filter more stable against temperature and pressure changes during cavity cool down. Some statistics of NF condition during cavities and modules cold tests is presented. | |||

THPB120 | Status of LCLS-II QA Systems Collaboration for Cyromodule Construction at TJNAF and FNAL | cryomodule, controls, status, cavity | 1422 |
|
|||
At the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab), we are supporting the LCLS-II Project at SLAC. The plan is to build thirty-five 1.3 GHz continuous wave cryomodules, production to be split between JLab and FNAL (Fermilab). This has required a close collaboration between the partner labs, including enhancing our existing quality systems to include this collaboration. This over view describes the current status of the Quality System development as of August 2015, when the partner labs start the assembly of the prototype cryomodules. | |||
