Abstract

In this study, a finite element model is used to predict the vacuum vessel’s response to loads resulting from its own self-weight and shipping and handling. Structural members of the cold mass support system must behave elastically during assembly and transport of the magnets so that alignment with respect to an external reference is reproducible. This paper includes deflection and stress analyses of the vacuum vessel for the SSC 50 mm collider dipole cryostats. In addition, material selection and stress relieving techniques are discussed. Several methods of local structural reinforcement were analyzed prior to the selection of the current design. The results from these analyses are given for comparison.
