Folks,

 

NCSX is just beginning field period assembly operations.  We are planning to have a peer review of our Field Period Assembly plans the mornings of October 11 and 12.  The reviews will run from 9am until noon each day.  The agenda is shown below.

 

October 11

9:00      Reiersen            Introduction

9:10      Brooks               Dimensional control requirements for the mod coils and TF coils

9:30      Cole                  Design overview and assembly features

10:30    Brown               FPA assembly sequence, tooling, measurements, and adjustments

October 12

9:00      Brown               FPA assembly sequence, tooling, measurements, and adjustments (cont’d)

10:00    Viola                 Cost and schedule, staffing, metrology utilization

11:00    Perry                 Coordinate collection of comments from reviewers

NOON                            ADJOURN

The purpose of the meeting is to assure that our approach to field period assembly is feasible, that the tooling design and metrology provisions are suitable, dimensional control requirements are realizable, and the schedule and resources appropriate.  Erik Perry (PPPL) has agreed to chair the review.  We have invited Lutz Wegener, Fred Hurd, and Torsten Braeuer from W7-X; David Anderson and Simon Anderson from HSX; Steve Knowlton from CTH; and Gary Johnson and Tom McManamy from SNS to participate in the review.  In addition, we have asked Geoff Gettelfinger and Jim Chrzanowski to serve on the review committee.

 

Carl Scimeca (cscimeca@pppl.gov) is making arrangements for the off-site folks to participate remotely.  PLEASE CONTACT CARL via e-mail at your earliest convenience for instructions on how to connect to the meeting and to test the connection in advance.  Reviewers will be notified as soon as the presentation material is posted.  PPPL folks will meet in B318.

 

Thanks to all for your interest and willingness to participate in this review,

 

Wayne
