CST simulations of the impedanceof a new design forthe PS wire scanners F. Caspers, A. Grudiev, E. Métral, B. Salvant Many thanks to W. Andreazza, R. Calaga and F. Roncarolo (BI) Agenda Context Main assumptions Simulation of the wire scanner tank alone Simulations of the wire scanner with the wire and arm (parking position IN) Simulations of the wire scanner with the wire and arm (parking position OUT) Summary Context 4 wire scanners are installed in the PS Beam losses due to small aperture of current wire scanner tank design ? New design for wire scanner in the PS ? See EDMS document 999629 Request for building the new tanks, but impedance had not been checked. History of broken wires in the SPS due to beam induced losses Cavity Mode Related Wire Breaking of the SPS Wire Scanners and Loss Measurements of Wire Materials F. Caspers, B. Dehning, E. Jensen, J. Koopman, J.F. Malo, F. Roncarolo - Proc DIPAC 2003 (pdf)Wire Measurements on the LHC wire scanner F. Caspers, T. Kroyer, ABP/RLC meeting (pdf) 2 main risks to this new design? increased impedance (longitudinal and/or transverse) can lead to instabilities ? increased longitudinal impedance can lead to burning the wire What can we do to check the impedance? Theory Simulations Measurements Here we use simulations (CST) Time domain ? simulates the EM interaction of a line density bunch with a 3D model ? CST Particle Studio Wakefield Solver Frequency domain ? simulates the modes that can be excited in a 3D model ? CST Microwave Studio Eigenmode Solver Main assumptions Geometrical model Hexahedral mesh approximates the structure Model can be different from drawing Drawing can be different from what is really installed!!!! Material properties In time domain, very coarse fit of the input frequency dependence (see work of Carlo and Lukas Haenichen of TU Darmstadt) EM properties of materials at high frequencies are not always measured and can be very different from the model used in CST (very often, th
