Subject: Minutes of WBS 62-65 Meeting w/ Larry Dudek

Larry and Wayne,

Below are the minutes from today's meeting for your review and comment.  The
task list on the NCSX Engineering web page at
http://www.pppl.gov/me/NCSX_Engineering/Work_Plans/WBS6.htm.

A meeting to discuss the status of preparations for the CDR was Tuesday,
February 19th with Larry Dudek, Wayne Reiersen, and Bob Simmons in
attendance.  The purpose of the meeting was to review the status of
preparations for the upcoming CDR with the goal to get the non-WBS 1 systems
completed before the end of March to provide sufficient time to focus on WBS
1.  Items discussed were:

(1) WBS 62  C-Site Water Cooling - although there has not been an update of
heat loads, Larry indicated that the existing C-site system has lots of
capacity and, unless someone needs high temperature water, there should not
be any problems accommodating any changes in heat loads.  Actions are as
indicated on the WBS 6 task list posted on the web.
(2) WBS 63 Cryogenic Systems - the design concept is significantly changed
since the PVR in that He cooling is no longer required, thus saving the
significant expense of the He refrigerator.  However, the key issues here
are to develop a new concept and obtain project concurrence, establish the
interfaces with WBS 1 and this WBS element, revise the WBS dictionary,
finalize the heat loads, develop the cost and schedule inputs as per the WBS
6 task list on the web. Tentative cryogenic heat loads (with TBD information
in red) is located at
http://www.pppl.gov/me/NCSX_Engineering/Technical_Data/c01r00/CryoData.htm
(3) WBS 64 Utility Systems - no changes from the PVR anticipated.  Actions
are as indicated on the WBS 6 task list on the web.
(4) WBS 65 - VV and PFC Cooling Systems (Outside the Cryostat) - since the
PFCs and ribs are no longer in the baseline project, a revised (and probably
simpler) concept will need to be developed and approved, a revised WBS
dictionary developed, and cost and schedule inputs provided.

It  was agreed that Larry would discuss the tasks with his people and get
back to Bob or Wayne with modifications to the tentative dates posted on the
web.  It was also tentatively agreed that the next meeting would be held
late in the week of March 11th to finalize the design concept and determine
additional information needed.
