Description

Measuring cavity quality factors in a cryomodule requires calorimetric techniques because of the heavy input overcoupling. This involves using physical parameters of the cryogenic system such as mass flow, bath pressure, helium liquid level to estimate dynamic heat load of SRF cavities, often calibrated with heaters. The main challenges of these techniques are reducing sources of variation and error in the system to below the precision level required for the low dynamic heat levels added by the cavities and identifying and incorporating all of the important parameters into the analysis. For testing of the prototype HB650 cryomodule for PIP-II, we’ve developed a completely data-driven fitting technique that significantly reduces the error of the resulting qualify factor measurements which reducing the overall length of the measurement. This technique with example analyses and error analysis will be presented.
