(4.2) Helium storage
1) Pure medium pressure tanks– 19 x 67 m3
– Theoretically up to 3.5 tons– Pressure restrictions for TICP and TMCP– Effectively ~ 3 tons
2) Liquid helium storage tank– 20 m3
– When filled to 80% another 2 tons– Used as ”2nd fill” and help in transient modes
(cool-down, pump-down)
3) Impure high pressure tanks or bundles– 12 m3
– Nearly 300 kg – Used as buffer in recovery system

(5.1) Definitions
Kinetic Experiments
Flux Integrated Experiments
A reliability of at least 90% should be provided for the duration of the measurement.The measurement will be considered failed when the beam power is reduced to less than 50% of the scheduled power for more than 1/10th of the measurement length.
For the duration of the experiment at least 90% of the experiments should have at least 85% of beam availability and on average more than 80% of the scheduled beam power. The beam will be considered unavailable when its power is less than 50% of its scheduled power for more than one minute.
At least 90% of the users should receive a neutron beam that will allow them to execute the full scope of their experiments

(6.2) Heat recovery
• No elevated oil or helium temperatures out of compressor suppliers specs
• More efficient heat exchangers, especially oil coolers
• Dedicated cooling water circuit for cryoplant
• Cooling function has priority over heat recovery

(6.3) Energy efficiency and sustainability
• Focus on process design and optimization
• Good match between plant and load by staging, dual equipment, VFDs for low pressure machines
• Focus on turn-down scenarios
• Incentive OPEX approach in ACCP and TMCP tender evaluation and contracts as well
• As much as possible helium recovery

Conclusions
• The conceptual design of the cryogenic system at ESS is finished
• One cryoplant is ordered, one out for quote, one to 90% specified ESS is rolling
• High level goals in terms of energy efficiency and sustainability can be met
• Continued work on meeting reliability and availability requirements
