| Abstract |
The Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory (ARIEL) is a major expansion of the Isotope Separation and Acceleration (ISAC) facility at TRIUMF [1]. A key part of the ARIEL project is a 10 mA 50 MeV continuous-wave superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) electron linear accelerator (e-linac). The 1.3 GHz SRF cavities are cooled by liquid helium (LHe) at 2 K [2]. The 4 K 2 K LHe transition is achieved onboard of each cryomodule by the cryoinsert containing counterflow heat exchanger augmented with JT valve [3]. Air Liquide LHe cryoplant provides 4 K LHe to cryomodules. After successful commissioning of the cryoplant, 2 K sub-atmospheric (SA) system and cryomodules, the ultimate integration test confirmed stable operation of two cryomodules comprising two 9 cell SRF cavities. Particularities of this cryogenic system include conservative design of the oil removal system, original design heat exchanger in the SA pumping system, hermetic SA pumps, inline full SA flow purifier, multipurpose recovery/purification compressor, modular LHe distribution system, top-loaded design cryomodules, and overall radiation resistant design. The paper presents details of these features as well as integration tests results.
