Title: Positive-ion injector cryogenic heat load

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/166404· OSTI ID:166404

A project to improve the temperature profile of the nitrogen heat shield on the PII linac cryostats began. The goal of the project is to reduce the liquid nitrogen consumption and the quiescent cryostat heat load to the helium refrigeration system. In March 1994 additional heat shield components were installed in one PII cryostat. A significant improvement in the quiescent helium system heat load of approximately 10 watts was observed and some improvement in liquid nitrogen consumption was also noted. We plan to extend these improvements to the remaining two cryostats in the next year as access time can be scheduled.
