SPI Readiness Reviews
[SPI Readiness Review Program]
[FY 2003-2007 Reviews]
[Where are the greatest risks (cables)?]
[HV issues on present projects]
[2005 Plans]
2005 Plans
- All of the SPI projects have been through at least one review cycle by August 2004. For 2005:
- At least one review per project is planned in 2005 and in 2006 as the SPI projects proceed to initial commissioning.
- We are encouraging all the SPI projects to develop risk identification and mitigation processes such as failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) to manage risks.
- Will review each project's risk mitigation plans in 2005
- In 2005 a web-site may be implemented that will have:
- lessons-learned from prior SPI projects
- some general design guidance on high voltage, vacuum, etc. and
- a place where SPI participants can post comments or questons and get feedback.
- Based on continuing issues with the performance of dielectric materials at cryogenic temperatures and high voltage, more emphasis is needed on R&D and design guidelines in this area for the grid-based SPI projects.
- A High-Voltage Cryogenic Dielectric Workshop is being planned in October 2005.
- At IEEE 2005 CEIDP
- Participation by each SPI team facing high voltage component qualification would be expected
- agenda could include some overview talks on liquid nitrogen dielectrics, solid dielectrics, HV design practices, etc.
