Two companies discovered:• Hanbay inc. (Canada)• Grotec (Germany)
• Actuator ordered from Hanbay (cost ~ $1500)
Bypass Heater Calibration
•Bypass Heater (2 kW) performance not satisfactory▫Virtually no heating at low powers, then
sudden overheating at medium-high powers
▫Output power not equal to power requested through PVSS
•Heater controlled through phase angle controller (inexpensive way of controlling heater)
•“Span” setting of heater too narrow. Corrected.
Bypass Heater Calibration
•Tests performed to measure heater power and compare it against input power (through PVSS)
•System run in single phase to measure enthalpy using Pressure and Temperature.
•Power o/p = Enthalpy Change x Massflow Rate
•Pressure, temperature measured across internal heat exchanger.
•Output power found to be not equal to input power
Bypass Heater Calibration
Bypass Heater Calibration
•Phase Angle Controller chops up the sine-wave signal (4-20 mA) linear with time, instead of linear with output power
•Mustapha prepared MATLAB and PVSS programs to correctly calculate output power to match input power.
•New logic incorporated into PVSS by Lukasz. Works perfectly, and has been tested.

Heat Balance
Heat Balance
Heat BalanceConclusions drawn:
• Up until 1100W, the readings are reliable.
• Readings above 1100W are unreliable due to premature boiling of CO2 inside the tubes.
• Offset between requested power and power measured is due to heat added by the pump and surroundings.
• Compressor cooling capacity is lower than expected (this data is already 2 months old)
Accumulator Dry-Out Testing• Accumulator heater in
thermo-syphon configuration
• During start-up, accumulator heated for long time
• At higher vapor pressure, higher vapor density.
• At higher density, lower convective currents
• Risk of dry-out, heater melting.
Accumulator Dry-Out Testing
•A parameter called Thermal Resistance used to calculate dry-out thresholds
•Accumulator heated for long periods with 250, 500, 750, 900 and 1000W power
•Rth calculated for all data points, and plotted against accumulator saturation temperature.
•Combined graph for all readings plotted

Conclusions drawn:• At 250W Heater Power,
dry-out is not witnessed. • Higher the heater power,
lower the saturation temperature at which dry-out occurs.
• Some unexplained bumps are observed at higher powers, through sudden, steep rises and falls in the values of Thermal Resistance
Accumulator Cooling Power
•Tests done to measure cooling power in accumulator
•It was expected that cooling at 100% valve opening should match heating at 100% heater power (1 kW)
•This was not the case•Some cooling power lost because cooling
spiral passes through liquid CO2.
Accumulator Cooling Power
•Accumulator cooled and then heated at specific rates. For example, 50% CV1105 valve opening corresponds to 50% heater power, 500W
•Slopes of cooling and heating measured.•Cooling slope observed to be less than
heating slope.•Since slope unequal, this method not
enough to determine cooling power
Accumulator Cooling Power
Accumulator Cooling Power
•Rough estimate obtained by plotting Heater’s power versus the value ‘dp/dt’ (change in pressure per unit time)
•dp/dt values of cooling spiral superimposed on heating graph.
•This gives rough but useful estimate of cooling capacity.

100% 740
Accumulator Cooling Power
Conclusions:
• Cooling power does not correspond to its respective heating power.
• The maximum cooling power available is only 740W.
• The cooling power at 25% valve opening is not a quarter of the full cooling power. This is due to the inertia of the fluid.
• Cooling Power is not completely linear over the entire range.
CMS Pixel Upgrade• CMS Pixel layout being discussed with various
iterations proposed.• Latest proposal (at that time) was simulated to
measure the fluid temperature and pressure drop. Results were compared with Bart’s results (with his global calculator)
• Joao’s calculator was used in Matlab, and simulations with Friedel and Chisholm correlations.
• The simulation results were similar to, but not exactly the same as Bart’s own simulations.

User’s Manual
•The eventual aim of project was to prepare User Manual to allow external researchers (Belle, SLAC, IBL) to use the system without distracting Bart, Lukasz or Joao!
•The manual is about 60 pages long and will hopefully be used by someone in the future.
