2. DOE Guidance on Project
Baselines for CD-2
-
The DOE funding profile has been the subject of much
discussion among PPPL, OFES, and other offices during the last month. An OFES
decision on the baseline funding profile for CD-2 is expected this
week.
3. CD-2

DOE-directed redefinition of CD-4. (About +$2.0M)
-
DOE changes to the funding profile. (Depends on
which profile)
-
Selected changes since the start of FY-04 not due to any
of the above. (Bob to recommend; Hutch to select)

-
ECP documenting changes from the PDR to the CD-2
baseline. (Bob)
-
Resource-loaded schedule and consistent milestone and

4. Critical Technical
Issues (Wayne)
-
The critical technical issues list was reviewed and
updated at the Dec. 22 meeting. Wayne will issue the update.
-
System analysis tasks: Art Brooks is compiling a
long list of requested system analysis tasks.
-
Inputs should be submitted to Art.
-
Mike requested that a coil filament file should be
generated based on the CAD data as soon as possible and made available to
physics for confirmatory analysis ASAP. ACTION: Wayne follow up.
-
The tweaking of the vacuum vessel shell geometry is
overdue. ACTION: Wayne follow up with Art.
-
It is planned that Strickler and Ku will support the
completion of these analyses.
-
Wayne is responsible for setting the priorities, with
input from physics.
-
ACTION: Mike obtain a copy of Art’s draft
list.
-
Metrology needs some attention. Raftopoulos has
documented a plan based on input from stakeholders, but it needs wider
dissemination. A peer review will be held prior to placing equipment
orders. ACTION: Wayne follow up with Raftopoulos regarding
dissemination of metrology plans, closing the loop with stakeholders, and next
steps on equipment purchases.
5.
Plant visits to MCWF Suppliers (Brad, reporting on
12/22)
-
The series of plant visits the week of Dec. 15 were very
productive.
-
The casting suppliers have a good handle on the task.
Flow solidification analyses is requiring many iterations, but they have
high confidence that the results will be a reliable for designing the rig.
-
Machining analyses are just beginning. We owe them
the tool solids model for the current design.
-
Both teams expressed a commitment to work with us to try
to meet our schedule.
