12 12 Fundamentals Fundamentals Water Dump: Radiolysis Water Dump: Radiolysis H 2 O cracked by shower of high energy primary electron net production rate at 2 C / 1 atm (n.c.):.3 l/mj H 2 and.15 l/mj O 2.27 g/mj H 2 O spatial distribution according to de/dv profile solubility in 6 C water: H 2 : 16 ml/l and O 2 : 19.4 ml/l Our Case Our Case at 2 MW: 4.82 g/s H 2 O whole primary water (3m 3 ) would be radiolysed in 72 days! thus recombination: 6 l/s (n.c.) H l/s (n.c.) O 4.82 g/s H 2 2 O + 58 kw (.3% P beam ) solubility limit during 1 bunch train at 1 bar de/dv 53 J/cm 3 for H 2 & de/dv 13 J/cm 3 for O 2 ; our case (de/dv) max = 16J/ cm 3 So far it looks almost good, BUT H 2 control is critical: So far it looks almost good, BUT H 2 control is critical: solubility during bunch train passage can be exceeded locally due to local pressure drops (negative p), rise of T inst and amount of solved H 2 danger of H 2 gas bubbles and induced pressure waves comparable to local boiling if not all H 2 is recombined, H 2 can accumulate at prominent locations (local pockets) danger of explosion (e.g. nuclear power plant Brunsbüttel) need 1% recombination, i.e. out gassing at low pressure + recombiners in return pipe

13 13 scheme Water Dump: Radiation Handling (1) Water Dump: Radiation Handling (1) Shielding of direct radiation neutrons: ~ isotropic distribution shielding to protect surface, soil, groundwater & air muons: range in soil 7m surface protected by 15mrad tilt + 12m sand 4GeV e- surface: <.1mSv/year 7m sand 12m sand 3m normal concrete dump muons 3m normal concrete groundwater: incorporation <.3mSv/year Activation of primary circuit, 18MW, 3m 3 water in water besides short lived isotopes also 7 Be, 3 H=T,... A(t)=p (1-e -λ t ) p production rate = A sat λ ln2/t 1/2 3 H: 2keV β -, t 1/2 =12a, A sat =28TBq (.76g, 2.8l T 2 or 5g HTO), A(5h)=9TBq, A(1a)=12TBq - no outside dose rate, but incorporation risk if released due to accident or maintenance! 7 Be: 478keV γ, t 1/2 =54d, A sat =12TBq, main contributor to dose rate - equal distribution in primary loop 3mSv/h! at surface of components - accumulation in resin filters, but also adsorption on circuit surfaces (esp. heat exchanger) local shielding, remote handling procedures Legal limit of draining 3 H & 7 Be: 5MBq/m 3 <<TBq/m 3 dilution is not the solution to pollution 2mm thick stainless steel dump vessel gives 4mSv/h on its axis (5h op., 1month wait) regular inspection of vessel (welds,...) seems to be problematic

15 15 Water Dump: Discussion Water Dump: Discussion Compared to the solid C-Cu dump, the water dump looked quite attractive at first sight, BUT Except for the answer to the heat extraction issue other critical aspects showed up at a closer look: additionally quite similar (not calc.) to C-Cu approach: Radiolysis and Hydrogen Gas Transient Pressure Window handling of highly activated (cooling) system, esp. High Tritium Content in cooling water requires huge effort in radiation protection even scheduled opening for maintenance reasons is complicated enclosure and 2m high chimney dismantling costs not negligible Inherent Potential of Destruction / Explosion of a Highly Activated Water System Difficult to get permission and antis of the LC-project will find here good arguments Motivation for a new idea

16 16 Gas Dump: First Thoughts Gas Dump: First Thoughts One atomic noble gas core (Ar, Xe) is surrounded by solid material (Fe) Basic Idea Basic Idea gas core acts as scattering target (only small amount of energy deposition) and distributes energy longitudinally over ~ 1km into surrounding material low energy densities, no sweeping, small spot size possible, no radiolysis surrounding material takes main part of energy Z > 2 reduced tritium production tunnel r [cm] First Attempt (not optimized) First Attempt (not optimized) gas dump 1.2m, ~1km air water, 4cm Energy density (1 electron 4GeV), de/dv [GeV/cm 3 ] r-bin=1cm, z-bin=1m Fe, 52cm thick Ar core, normal conditions z [m]

17 17 Gas Dump: Rough Results 1km long dump, (compared to water dump) Gas Dump: Rough Results 1km long dump, (compared to water dump) Thermal & Mechanical Issues Thermal & Mechanical Issues Argon: 8kg, takes only.5% primary energy, i.e. 22kJ per train resp. 9kW 22kJ T inst 1K (total volume) p.3bar, i.e. low transient pressure on window (.5bar) Iron: m=8tons, takes all primary energy, (de/dm) max per train=3j/g T inst 1K (4K) 18MW over 4m (dp/dz) max 5kW/m (5kW/cm) T eq (heat conduction in iron) 42K and T eq (heat transfer iron/water) 3K Argon core and inner iron area will reach temperatures of about 5 C Argon pressure will go up to 2-3 bar Radiological Aspects, 18MW, (no extra shielding around iron assumed) Radiological Aspects, 18MW, (no extra shielding around iron assumed) neutron dose at surface: 1m sand shielding gives.1msv/year (3m concrete + 7m sand) muon dose at surface: dump longer than muon range, 5cm iron of the dump itself is equivalent to 2m sand shield depth of dump tunnel relaxed tritium sat.: 3 TBq in Fe (solid),.7 TBq in Ar,.2 TBq in cooling water (3TBq) tunnel air activation (tritium sat.): 8.4GBq in 2m 3 = 42kBq/m 3 (47kBq/m 3 ) dose levels at the dump and in tunnel: few msv/h (1mSv/h at shielding, but 1mSv/h at components)

18 18 Gas Dump: Rough Results cont d, (compared to water dump) Gas Dump: Rough Results cont d, (compared to water dump) Maintenance Maintenance Water System: lower activated (1-4 of water dump), no hydrogen Opening of Argon core: 5l,.3TBq of 3 H after 1years (12TBq in water) activated gas is rinsed out and pressed into a vessel n.c.) how much is released to air during this process?.1%.3gbq (1GBq) Discussion, Open Questions Discussion, Open Questions 1m of tunnel is activated to dose rate levels of few msv/h optimization of dump & additional shielding to reach.1msv/h an adapted or extra tunnel design is desirable (crossing angle preferred) high gas and iron temperature flatten dp/dz profile via Ar pressure by sectioning the dump spot size limit of this dump? need no fast sweep, applicable as dump for γ/γ-collider study thermal effects in Ar core: convection, change in density profile is the (angular) beam stability compatible with the long axis of the dump? (4cm/1km=4µrad) make it suitable to dump beamstrahlung as well. Consequences? (e.g. wider gas core,..) The gas dump approach seems to be an attractive alternative, it should be considered in an early design stage of the ILC.
