"Designing High Power Targets with Computational Fluid Dynamics"

Dr. Silviu Corvig
Jefferson Lab


Jefferson Lab is a fixed target facility that studies the structure of the building blocks of nature. High power targets, up to 1000 W, have been widely used at Jefferson Lab for two decades with mixed performance results. The liquid hydrogen target for the Qweak experiment was the first target designed with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and it has been the best performing target at Jefferson Lab. The Qweak target was the highest power liquid hydrogen target in the world at 2500 W. A CFD facility has been established at Jefferson Lab to support target designs for the 12 GeV physics program. The CFD facility will design the 5000 W liquid hydrogen target for the future MOLLER experiment in Hall A. I will be presenting the state of the CFD facility.


Presentation: OCNPS 200 @ 3:00 pm
Refreshments: OCNPS 200 Atrium @ 2:30 pm
All interested persons are cordially invited to attend.
