  1. Technical Details of the T2K Horns L. Bartoszek BARTOSZEK ENGINEERING NBI2006

  2. My part in T2K • I have been working with Ichikawa-san and the KEK group on horns 1 and 3 • I model the design in 3D (with much iteration with KEK group,) and Toshiba builds it • I am also working with Eric Zimmerman at CU to design and build horn 2 • Horn 2 is just now ramping up in effort

  3. To be covered here: • Electrically isolated support that absorbs thermal expansion of the horn • Details of stripline connections • Design of a water connection between Stainless and Aluminum that prevents galvanic corrosion • FSW welding in the US • We might use this on horn 2

  4. Electrically isolated support • Ceramic block electrically isolates the horn attachment to its support frame • The upstream end is fixed in X,Y and Z (beam direction) with a pinned joint that allows rotation • The downstream pin joint translates in Z as horn changes temperature

  5. US pin joint DS pin joint

  6. Pin attached to horn

  7. Horn 1 stripline configuration

  8. Ceramic disks clamped by threaded rods restrain Lorentz forces on stripline

  9. This bend was hard to assemble on Horn 1

  10. Horn 3 stripline configuration

  11. Improved corner joint design

  12. Will be possible to assemble the corner from inside and out

  13. Ø32 mm holes penetrate the stripline

  14. Ceramic sleeve isolates the threaded rod from the SL plates

  15. Clamp for 4 plates just below the remote disconnect showing the larger gap

  16. How are disks inserted?

  17. Draft of Horn 3 on its module

  18. Draft of horn 1 on its module

  19. Isolated water connection to Outer Conductor that prevents SS/AL galvanic corrosion

  20. Horn 3 water system Drain lines Supply lines

  21. Elevation view of Horn 3 beam Drain tank

  22. Supply lines Welded bellows with ceramic isolation Auxilliary drain lines

  23. Water spray nozzle ceramic Aux drain fitting Stainless flange Flange to connect nozzles to Outer Conductor supply fitting

  24. EVAC NW25 Al seal between ceramic and horn Al Exploded view of connection Tapping is done in SS flange and Al outer conductor, only counterbores in ceramic Helicoflex SS seal between SS and ceramic

  25. Cutaway Exploded view showing water routing channels in flange

  26. Close-up cutaway of auxilliary water path

  27. Horn 1 temporary auxilliary drain lines

  28. FSW welding • Friction Stir welding produces welds with higher fatigue strength than TIG welding • The Japanese are ahead of the US in commercializing the Friction Stir Welding process • Friction Stir Link, Inc, a new company in WI offers robotic FSW for tube welding • This is great news for the horn 2 effort! • Now we have an alternative to welding at FNAL

  29. Robotic FSW welding machine

  30. Exit point of FSW tool Entry point of FSW tool on test weld

  31. Huuuuunnnnnhhhhh? Whhaaaattt?
