Wall-plug (AC) power consumption of a very high energy e+/e- storage ring collider
Marc C. Ross
TL;DR
This paper estimates the AC power consumption of a very high energy e+/e- storage ring collider, analyzing different assumptions affecting the power requirements for such a large-scale particle physics facility.
Contribution
It provides a detailed comparison of power consumption estimates based on varying assumptions about heat removal, cryo-plant efficiency, and klystron operation.
Findings
Power consumption estimates range from 280 MW to 416 MW.
Differences are due to assumptions on heat removal and cryo-plant efficiency.
Clarifies the impact of operational assumptions on power estimates.
Abstract
Estimated AC power consumption ranges from ~280 MW (1) to 416 MW (2) for a 350 GeV E_cm 80 km circumference colliding beam storage ring complex with parameters given in (1). The difference between the two estimates is from differing assumptions concerning heat removal, cryo-plant efficiency, klystron operation etc. The purpose of this note is to list and explain these.
