Monitoring the wear of the refractory lining in the blast-furnace hearth
The Razgar Gorna computer program is developed for calculating two-dimensional temperature fields in any vertical and horizontal cross section of the blast-furnace hearth. In the calculations, the heat-conduction equations are solved by means of readings from many temperature sensors (up to 1000, depending on the volume) installed within the furnace lining between the refractory modules. Continuous temperature monitoring at each point permits the determination of the remaining lining thickness and prediction of the onset of lining wear, as necessary. A mathematical model is employed in continuous temperature monitoring of the lining. The database of the Razgar Gorna program relies on the collection, analysis, and transmission of information from the temperature or heat-flux sensors. The program is in use at blast furnaces in Chinese steelworks at Jinan (two furnaces), Jiyuan, and Liuzhou. © 2013 Allerton Press, Inc
The measurement results of carbon ion beam structure extracted by bent crystal from U-70 accelerator
The carbon ion +6C beam with energy 25 GeV/nucleon was extracted by bent crystal from the U-70 ring. The bent angle of silicon crystal was 85 mrad. About 2*105 particles for 109 circulated ions in the ring were observed in beam line 4a after bent crystal. Geometrical parameters, time structure and ion beam structure were measure
Application of bent crystals at IHEP 70-GeV accelerator to enhance the efficiency of its usage
Bent crystal was extracting 70-GeV protons with average intensity 4*10^11 (as
measured in external beamline) per spill of 1.6 s duration, in parallel to the
simultaneous work of two internal targets in the accelerator ring. An
additional crystal, placed in the external beamline, was deflecting a small
part of the extracted beam with intensity 10^7 protons toward another physics
experiment. Crystal-extracted beam had a typical size of 4 mm by 4 mm fwhm at
the end of the external beamline. Measurements for the extraction efficiency
and other characteristics at the simultaneous work of four experimental set-ups
are presented. With crystal working in the above-said regime during one month,
no degradation of channeling was observed. The studies of extraction efficiency
have been continued with new crystals.Comment: 6pp. Presented at EPAC 200
Channeling and Volume Reflection Based Crystal Collimation of Tevatron Circulating Beam Halo (T-980)
The T980 crystal collimation experiment is underway at the Tevatron to
determine if this technique could increase 980 GeV beam-halo collimation
efficiency at high-energy hadron colliders such as the Tevatron and the LHC.
T980 also studies various crystal types and parameters. The setup has been
substantially enhanced during the Summer 2009 shutdown by installing a new
O-shaped crystal in the horizontal goniometer, as well as adding a vertical
goniometer with two alternating crystals (O-shaped and multi-strip) and
additional beam diagnostics. First measurements with the new system are quite
encouraging, with channeled and volume-reflected beams observed on the
secondary collimators as predicted. Investigation of crystal collimation
efficiencies with crystals in volume reflection and channeling modes are
described in comparison with an amorphous primary collimator. Results on the
system performance are presented for the end-of-store studies and for entire
collider stores. The first investigation of colliding beam collimation
simultaneously using crystals in both the vertical and horizontal plane has
been made in the regime with horizontally channeled and vertically
volume-reflected beams. Planning is underway for significant hardware
improvements during the FY10 summer shutdown and for dedicated studies during
the final year of Tevatron operation and also for a "post-collider beam physics
running" period.Comment: 3 pp. 1st International Particle Accelerator Conference: IPAC'10,

The Investigations Of Beam Extraction And Collimation At U-70 Proton Synchrotron Of IHEP By Using Short Silicon Crystals
The new results of using short (2-4mm) bent crystals for extraction and
collimation of proton beam at IHEP 70 Gev proton synchrotron are reported. A
broad range of energies from 6 to 65 GeV has been studied in the same crystal
collimation set-up. The efficiency of extraction more than 85% and intensity
more than 10E12 were obtained by using crystal with the length 2-mm and the
angle 1 mrad. The new regime of extraction is applied now at the accelerator to
deliver the beam for different experimental setups within the range of
intensity 10E7-10E12ppp.Comment: Presented at EPAC 2002 (Paris, June 3-7), 3p
