Gaseous fuels for heavy-duty internal combustion engines provide inherent advantages reducing CO2, particulate matter (PM), and NOX emissions. Pilot-ignited direct-injected NG (PIDING) uses a small pilot injection of diesel to ignite late-cycle main direct NG, resulting in significant reduction unburned CH4 emissions relative port-injected NG. Previous works have identified premixing as critical parameter establishing indicated efficiency performance. To this end, recent experimental...
TRIUMF is proceeding with a major upgrade to the ISAC project, ISAC-II, that includes addition of 43 MV heavy ion superconducting linear accelerator and an ECR charge state booster. An initial installation 18 mid beta cavities (/spl beta/ = 5.8%, 7.1%) due for commissioning in 2005. The paper will describe linac program at including status production cavities, design medium cryomodule summary activities SCRF laboratory.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is constructing the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). LHC's cleaning insertions require 48 twin aperture resistive quadrupoles. These 3.1 m long magnets have a gradient of 35 T/m an inscribed circle 46 mm diameter and separation distance 224 mm. This magnet project part Canadian contribution to LHC. A prototype was delivered in May 1998 measured at CERN. Design changes were made based on results. Due small apertures complicated geometry,...
CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) requires 48 twin aperture resistive quadrupoles in the beam cleaning insertions. Canada is contributing these magnets to CERN framework of TRIUMF-LHC collaboration contracts. A pre-series magnet was produced by Canadian industry and delivered March 2001. This incorporates important design changes that resulted from experience with a prototype magnet. The construction this measurements made at ALSTOM are reported. comparison between high precision pole...
TRIUMF is building 22 magnets for the CERN PS Booster Transfer Line as part of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) upgrade. These replace similar existing in transfer line but have higher fields maximum proton energy being increased from 1 GeV to 1.4 GeV. The magnets, 12 quadrupoles and 10 dipoles, are laminated pulsed operation with a 1.2 second cycle time. original operated DC. new must fit within space envelopes mate support stands.
This paper describes the ISAC-1 radioactive ion beam facility proposed at TRIUMF. A novel approach for target/ion source station will allow an incident proton intensity of least 10 /spl mu/A 500 MeV. should give high luminosity production nuclei far from stability with a very large isotopic range. After mass separation beams can be sent to two different experimental areas. One uses 60 keV energy experiments such as neutral atoms trap, parity violation, etc. The second one, mainly dedicated...
TRIUMF will carry out a 1-year preconstruction engineering design and impact study of the KAON Factory. This enable prototypes to be built various components Booster ring-a fast-cycling dipole magnet, dual-frequency magnet power supply, ceramic beam pipe, RF cavities (both parallel perpendicular bias versions), extraction kicker-and rotating target for 3-MW 30-GeV beam. Reviews are being carried racetrack designs all five rings, shielding remote handling requirements, layout experimental...
The transfer line PSB-CPS recombines the four beams from CERN PS Booster (PSB) into one beam, which is injected 26 GeV Proton Synchrotron (CPS). As part of "PS conversion for LHC" project, some magnets in this have been replaced by new with laminated yokes and higher maximum current. were built magnetically measured TRIUMF as a Canadian contribution to LHC project. Detailed three dimensional mathematical models developed two types bending magnets. are compared magnetic measurements it shown...
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is constructing the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). LHC's cleaning insertions require 48 twin aperture resistive quadrupoles. laminations these magnets are punched from low carbon steel sheet 1.5 mm thick. To check quality of laminations, samples regularly collected and measured. This paper describes how measurements analyzed. work part Canadian contribution to LHC.
