Hydraulic restriction(cutting conduction in HeII

Calorimetric measurements principle
The JT valve (CV910) is blocked at the right value to compensate the static heat loses before the powering
Then, the temperature drift is mainly due to electrical resistive heating dissipated during the powering
After powering the temperature shall remain constant

Conclusions
An abnormal temperature rise was seen as a precursor of the incident in sector 3-4.
Accurate/controlled measurements of temperature using the existing equipment can /have spot other potential risks.
Electrical measurements are needed to confirm and quantify the resistive splice but required special equipment and were only local.
Check of internal splices in the magnet is now done during cold tests in SM18.
The main circuits in four sectors have been fully investigated plus the dipole circuit in sector 1-2. Seven suspected cases have been found. Two were excluded, two confirmed and three are pending electrical measurements.
New QPS system will be able to measure the resistance of individual magnets and bus-bar segments in the LHC during dedicated tests. See R. Denz presentation in session 4.
Improved calorimetric measurements in preparation
The new powering procedures will demand mandatory calorimetric and electrical tests in ALL sectors at the beginning of the next LHC powering campaign
