Abstract

Two 500MHz superconducting RF cavities will be applied for Beijing Electron-Positron Collider Upgrade (BEPCII), and their cooling system is being built. In addition to limiting the pressure fluctuations within ± 3mbar, the fluctuations of the liquid helium level in the cryomodules have to be kept within ±1% during the operation of SRF cavities. Due to relatively long distances between the distribution valve box and the two cavity cryostats, a time-delay problem in the level control loop arises, which will lead to a long commissioning time in the future. Hence, a dynamic process simulation model for the level control loop is presented in this paper. The basic dynamic response characteristics of the level control and optimized PID controller parameters for one of the SRF cavity are presented.
