Electron cooling system (ECS) of the NICA collider is designed to form the required parameters of the ion beam at energy of the experiment in the range of 1 - 4.5 GeV/amu that requires energy cooling electrons from 0.5 to 2.5 MeV. To achieve the required energy of the electrons all elements of ECS are placed in tanks filled with sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) under pressure of 6 atm. For testing items ECS elements the test bench "Recuperator" is used. This paper presents the results of testing the prototype elements of the ECS and the first results of technical design of ECS. | ||
