1 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 1 CNGS HORN Mini-review induced by the break of the insulating glass disk

2 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 2 Summary  Design evolution of the horn from WANF to CNGS (concerns only insulation and vapor tightness)  Present design with a 19 mm thick glass disk and its apparent problems  Preliminary proposal(s) for a new design  Preliminary conclusions

3 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 3 Design evolution of the horn WANF horn Generalities No vapor tightness asked The atmosphere inside the horn was directly in contact with ambient atmosphere of the cavern. Approximated section of the circular aperture: 130 cm 2 Overall dimensions smaller than CNGS horn dimensions (reflector diam +/- equivalent to the diam of the CNGS horn) Horn was about 5 times less transparent to the beam than CNGS horn (bolted flanges, deflectors…) Voltage: 300 V maxi

4 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 4 Design evolution of the horn WANF horn Cooling lines Circular gap: 10 mm Inner conductor Deflector 1 Deflector 2 Insulators (washers) 420 mm VAPOR Bolted flanges Schematic view (principle) Beam axis Water outlet

5 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 5 WANF HORN CNGS HORN Design evolution of the horn WANF horn & CNGS horn

6 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 6 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns Reminder CNRS/Orsay was in charge of the complete development of the horns. Cern agreement necessary before manufacture. 1 st horn delivered was not in conformity with the technical specifications (MoU) Vapor tightness strongly asked (reference to the WANF) Only mineral material allowed for insulation. Inner diameter of the outer conductor: –Horn 700 mm –Reflector 1100 mm Voltage: 500 V maxi

7 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 7 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (CNRS solution for the glass disk assembly) Sliver 100 mm R370 mm Sliver 8 insulator rings (ARCLEX) mm

8 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 8 Main changes done on the design of the glass disc assembly to be in conformity with technical specifications (vapor tightness) Cross section larger and thickness increased from 15 mm to 19 mm 12 bolts instead of 8, placed on a diameter close the “C-shaped” seals Exchange of the standard bolts by “high grade” bolts M16 (A4 quality) The glass disc is now drilled with 20 holes (12 used to press the Tin/Ag seals + 8 for the clamping rods used to maintain the electrical connection plates) New high quality machining on the both polarity plates to accept the new dimensions of the glass disc Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (CERN solution for the glass disk assembly)

14 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 14 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (CERN solution for the glass disk assembly)

15 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 15 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (ratio between the horn and the reflector) 1000 mm 1400 mm

16 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 16 Design evolution of the horn Previous experience with a glass disk insulator (CERN horn prototype for NuFact project) Glass disk 670 mm

17 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 17 Design evolution of the horn Previous experience with a glass disk insulator (CERN horn prototype for NuFact project) Detail of the glass disk 23 mm Dimensions smaller than for CNGS horn Better ratio between overall dimensions and thickness Elastomere O-ring seals The annular pressure area is very limited Assembly with damping washers Only one row of drilled holes Assembly concept quite different (5 kV)

18 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 18 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (Preliminary proposal 1) For centering pins 12 identical sectors Al2O3 (thickness 30 mm) 12 coaxial springs used during assembly phases 6 necessary gaps to guarantee the contact on lateral faces Critical angular geometry

19 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 19 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (Preliminary proposal 1- Cross section) Al2O3 sector “ARCLEX” insulators (rings) Spacer ring Coaxial spring (s.steel) 30 mm 60 mm Electrical contact surfaces

20 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 20 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (Preliminary proposal 1A) Contact surface of the seals after clamping # 2.5 mm R

21 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 21 Concern proposal 1 with the alternative solution 1A Advantages: Risk to break an element is very low Vapor tightness can be considered as correct, even without “Helicoflex”seals Mechanical characteristics of Al2O3 are better known and pieces can be precisely machined. Clamping for electrical contacts and for vapor tightness can be treated separately Disadvantages: All electrical connection plates must be re-designed Water tightness lost (risk of leak if dimensions of the water deflectors are not sufficient) Additional delay estimation: about 4 months Cost Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns Advantages/Disadvantages Comparison with the present solution (glass disc insulator)

22 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 22 Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (Preliminary proposal 2) Reminder Slope 5.66 % 15 mm Glass disk insulator 2 “Helicoflex” seals (lining silver) Solution proposed after an open discussion with Piet Wertelaers PH/DT2

23 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 23 Advantages The glass disk is clamped between the 2 C-shaped seals in opposition, without any other contact with the connection plates. The flatness of the machined faces is less critical than previously, except for the seal grooves. The torque applied on the screws used for the clamping of the electrical contact surfaces can be dissociate of the torque applied on the screws used for the clamping of the seals. Water tightness Disadvantages Seals must be imperatively resistant to the corrosion ( not a great experience in moist and high aggressive environment) Presently, no solution foreseen to empty the lower “chicane” Design evolution of the horn CNGS horns (Preliminary proposal 2) Advantages/Disadvantages Comparison with the present solution (glass disc insulator)

24 18/07/2005 S. Rangod PH/DT1 24 Mainly due to the limited choice of mineral material for the insulator, (glass, ceramics, mica/glass fiber composite, granite, marble…) several ways can be explored but not a lot. Because time is missing for long tests, the retained solution must preferably be already experienced (bad choices in high radioactive areas have a very high cost at a later stage). The ends of the inner conductor cannot be modified (monolith component of 6.5 m) Modifications on the extremity of the outer conductor lead to an extra delay not acceptable with the installation schedule. Overall dimensions of the horn cannot be increased Choice of the final solution must integrate the compulsory over cost and the additional extra delay CNGS horns Remarks and preliminary conclusion
