Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 The Hydrogen Delivery System – An Introduction M Hills

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 In Block Diagram 2 –Each Hydrogen Delivery System in MICE is designed to fill an Absorber with 22L of liquid hydrogen (~18000L (or 18m 3 ) of gas) in a controllable and safe manner. –Prior to use with the final MICE absorbers, the system will be tested with a Test Cryostat which represents the final absorber (this is the “R&D system”)

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 System Components

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October In CAD 4 Relief lines Ventilation ducts Fans Test Cryostat Gas Panel Enclosure Vacuum Pump Enclosure

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 In photos 5 – Gas Panel Enclosure is situated on the south mezzanine – Hydride Bed heater/chillers located along the mezzanine – Ventilation and vacuum pipework is routed above the magnetic shield wall – Test Cryostat sits at floor level, approximately in the eventual location of the third AFC module

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October H2 Charging Station –Hydrogen “Charging Station” (right) installed below south mezzanine –Will provide a ventilated area for hydrogen bottles during the periods when the hydride beds are being filled –Hydrogen bottles will only be brought into the hall during charging. This means for 1-2 days max. and (hopefully) once per bed.

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 Hydrogen Local Control Room (HLCR) 7 –L ocated adjacent to the main hall, opposite the MICE Local Control Room – Home to the Hydrogen System control racks: – one for control functions specific to the first system – one for general control functions (H2 detection and ventilation system) – Houses the UPS and battery rack to keep safety critical systems running during a power outage

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 On the roof 8 – Vacuum Pump Enclosure (left) houses the vacuum pumps and is ventilated by the two smaller fans in the fan stack (right) – Ventilation stack contains the fans and flow monitoring – The relief lines vent above the stack platform

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October External Helium and Nitrogen Store –Storage area for the nitrogen and helium bottle packs that serve the system –Final stage of construction still in progress –Gas panels for connection of the bottle packs have been manufactured and are ready to be fitted –Gas panels include regulators that allow for automatic switching between packs –Current estimate is that continuous purging of the relief lines with nitrogen will use ~1pack/week (with 3 systems) –With two packs of nitrogen in position and automatic changeover, there will be a week to replace a used pack during continuous running 9

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 In reality... Hall Tour: –Will visit all the areas described above –Hall is a CDM (Construction Design and Management) area and also a (very low) radiation area –PPE and radiation monitoring will be provided –Please stay with the guides and watch your step 10

Hydrogen Pre-Operation Safety Review 4 th October 2011 Latest news Matt Hills is taking a two-year career break – very best wishes from MICE Stephen Watson of STFC assumes responsibility for LH2 system w.e.f October 17 th Successful pre-operation safety review held at RAL, expect formal report next few days Minor pipework on bottle rack and vac system to do, but all major installations are complete Very likely we can repeat LHe test and do LH2 test early in 2012 Director-level safety responsibility (David Wark) has been established at RAL 11
