Context

Luis Medeiros Romão, MLA 1st International Design Review, Brussels, 12-13 November, 2012 3

• SCKCEN:• promoting ADS• but…without accelerator tradition• and…in a nuclear reactor environment

• Belgium:• supporting ADS• without accelerator development tradition in the research

environment

Scope, in a nutshell

Luis Medeiros Romão, MLA 1st International Design Review, Brussels, 12-13 November, 2012 4

• Superconducting Proton Linac (coupled to sub-critical reactor): 600MeV 4mA CW MTBF > 250h

• Full power beam-dump (2.4MW)• ISOL@MYRRHA beam deviation system (optional)

What do we want to build ?

Accelerator Postulate

Luis Medeiros Romão, MLA 1st International Design Review, Brussels, 12-13 November, 2012 14

The accelerator is a unique engine with first of a kind performances that can be acquired by the MYRRHA Consortium from an external scientific – industrial collaboration, the Accelerator Consortium.

Concluding thoughts

Luis Medeiros Romão, MLA 1st International Design Review, Brussels, 12-13 November, 2012 21

• MLA can be considered as an engine– 2 choices: Make or Buy– SCK’s present position: Buy is the choice really open ?

• Is this model viable ? – Other similar projects follow a different path– Strong internal involvement in every phase– European project is in preparation in order to analyse

this scenario

Concluding thoughts

Luis Medeiros Romão, MLA 1st International Design Review, Brussels, 12-13 November, 2012 22

• Longer term issues:– Operations– Maintenance– Reengineering– Configuration management

Can the MYRRHA Consortium live without the Accelerator Consortium after delivery ?
