Abstract
The thermo-fluid-dynamic and structural analysis of the spallation target for the Energy Amplifier [1] (EA) is presented. The sensitivity of the system to the geometrical and physical parameters has been analysed through extensive numerical thermo-fluid-dynamic (TFD) simulations performed with the Star-CD commercial code [2]. Starting from the results obtained with the fluid dynamic analysis, a linear structural analysis of the window-pipe system has been performed with the MSC/Nastran finite-elements code [3].
The result of this work is a set of design guidelines for the final sizing of the target.
