The flow meter method was utilized to measure the xenon pumping speed. The test results show that the averaged effective pumping speed of dual cryogenic pumps is 52200L/s, and that of single cryogenic pump is 27100L/s. The pumping speed ratio of two configurations is 1.93. It can be concluded that the pumping speed is in linear relationship with the number of cryogenic pump, and the coefficient is irrelevant with the gas type. The averaged effective pumping speed of xenon is less than its nominal pumping speed, and the averaged pumping efficiency is 0.83. Under the identical inflow conditions, the averaged effective pumping speed ratio of nitrogen is 0.53, slightly less than the theoretical pumping speed ratio of 0.55. Consequently, it can be concluded that results assessment of large-diameter external cryogenic pump design index and guide the engineering application has certain reference significance.
