1 Performance of the Liquid Hydrogen Target Presented by Chad Gillis Indiana University at NPDGamma Collaboration Meeting July 2012, Oak Ridge, Tennessee
2 Since upgrading the target for operation at the SNS, we have successfully completed: A partial fill and vent test using liquid neon at Indiana. Another partial fill and vent test using liquid neon at ORNL. A complete fill and vent test using hydrogen at ORNL. Stable operation with a target full of liquid hydrogen from mid-april to mid-june of 2012.

4 Temperature measurement We use silicon diode thermometers. Specified by the manufacturer as accurate to 0.5 K at the temperatures of interest. Read by Lakeshore and Scientific Instruments thermometer readouts which report to the DAQ digitally.
5 Upstream side of vessel Filling elbow Downstream bottom corner of vessel Ortho-para converter
6 Vapor pressure measurement PT106 Pressure transducer Omega PX A5V. Analog output with repeatability accuracy of 2.5 torr. Read by an Omega meter which has an analog output with 0.2 % linearity read by the data acquisition system through the ADC card. In February/2012 its calibration was verified to be in 1 torr agreement with a calibrated gauge that was in turn in 1 torr agreement with two other calibrated gauges.
7 Hydrogen mass measurement Volume of vessel up to end of elbow curve in fill/vent line is liters based on Walt's (engineer at Indiana) calculation. Including the small extra contribution from the recirculation line and the OPC filled with catalyst, the volume is /- 0.1 liters.
8 flowmeter flowmeter
9 Cylinder pressure method In total, we need measurements of temperature, pressure and volume. Since the supply shed is located outside, data on outside temperature from NOAA ( were used. An extra uncertainty of 5 K was assumed. Pressure was measured using the pressure gauge on the regulator. It is model 1535 by Ametek Inc. and has specified accuracy of +/- 30 psi. Volume is the difficult one.
10 Cylinder pressure method To measure the internal volume of the pressurized cylinder to 3 %: Measure the external dimensions of the cylinder using a tape measure. The important contributions are: h1 (known to +/- 3/8 ) h2 (known to +/- 1/2 ) C1 (known to +/- 3/8 ) The difficult part is knowing the actual shape of the top dome. It is somewhere between: a half sphere of radius h2 and the top slice of height h2 of a sphere of circumference C1. The difference in these two possibilities is incorporated into the uncertainty. Measure weight of cylinder to +/- 3 pounds using a regular bathroom scale. Use known density of alloy steel and assume 5 % uncertainty: 7.9 +/- 0.4 g/l. (based on a survey of a large number of alloy steels at matweb.com) The internal volumes were: Cylinder 1: /- 1.5 liters Cylinder 2: /- 1.5 liters Cylinder 3: /- 1.5 liters Expected volume from talking to an Air Liquide technical specialist is /- 0.5 liters.

16 Cylinder pressure method At internal pressures of 2000 psi, the ideal gas law needs significant (~ 10 %) corrections. We used three methods: 1) The van der Waals equation of state: cubic in the density with coefficients independent of temperature. 2) The virial expansion: also cubic in the density, but the coefficients depend on temperature. [Michels, de Graaff, ten Seldam, Physica 26, (1960)] 3) A formula recommended by the NIST hydrogen website that determines density of hydrogen gas in terms of ten pressure and temperature-dependent terms that are determined by a total of 27 constants. Provides 1E-4 agreement with the standard at our temperature and pressure. [Lemmon, Huber, Leachman, J Res Natl Inst Stand Technol 113, (2008)]
17 Flowmeter method We have a very nice brand new flowmeter that was factory calibrated specifically for hydrogen in January of Specified accurate to 1.5% of 15 slpm and was seen to work at better than 0.5% when it was calibrated. The flowmeter is recorded once every three seconds. Integration of the flow rate gives us the mass of hydrogen loaded to the target. Flowmeter Gas Handling cabinet
18 We loaded /- 0.6 liters of 17 K liquid hydrogen to the target.

22 Status of Target DAQ During running, aside from a couple loose wiring connections that arose, the target DAQ system was very stable. It has written to disk once every three seconds continually for 70 days without having to restart the computer or the acquisition program. Software exists to integrate the target data with the rest of the NPDGamma data.

At 17 K, hydrogen has a high para fraction, but natural conversion is slow use a catalytic chamber. chamber Measurement of the ortho-para ratio using the beam monitor analysis is discussed in L.
