Simulation Results One year Ten years 15
Planned improvements to the Model 16
Example: Cryogenics Fault Tree q Model complexity – impractical to model the entire accelerator to a sufficient level of detail within the FCC study q Start from top contributors to downtime q Collaboration with TU Delft for cryogenic system modelling and prognostic methods LHC Cryogenics fault tree BONUS: the developed cryogenic fault tree will be used in 2016 for fault data capture by the cryo-operations team 17
Cryogenics Fault Tree Principle System Boundary Primary Failures Utilities (e. g. electricity) Sub-Systems Users (e. g. magnets, magnet quenches) System location: • 4. 5 K Refrigerator (Surface) • 1. 8 K Refrigerator (Underground) • Sectors / Distribution (Underground) Secondary Failures 18
Injector Chain Model • • • Injection to FCC done with different machines Need to understand their availability Injection caused delays 2015 (Delfine Evian 2015) • Phase twice as long than ideal • Electron cloud sub-optimal filling scheme • IQC rejected about 20 % of the injections • Failures in Injectors Planned improvements in model • Length of the injection phase process model • Fault trees for injectors 19
FCC Reliability Requirements • Combine operational parameters • • • Cycle (R. Alemany) Luminosity production (X Buffat) Injection (L. Stoel) Identify the key impact factors for availability • Derive failure rates, repair times that can be tolerated (unavailability budget) • (FCC week presentations) 20
FCC-hh – A Complex Machine q 4 times bigger machine = 4 times less availability? q Improved reliability for high-impact systems (redundancy) q Reduce corrective maintenance in favour of condition-based maintenance q High availability of the injector chain q Extremely efficient cycling q Optimization of machine protection settings q Beam stability Sensitivity analyses to key contributors for luminosity production should be performed 21
Conclusion • LHC Operations model • • Ready and validated Extensions planned • Injector chain • System fault trees • FCC CDR • • • Identify key impact factors for availability FCC availability requirements How to improve availability / what is the potential?
