IAP XRAY system requirements

System requirements:

  • The electrons accelerator shall be able to give electrons and accelerate them .
  • The Helmholtz coil shall be able to deflect the path of the electrons.
  • The target ( copper) shall be able to emit X-Rays after the electrons collide with it.
  • The detector shall be able to detect the X-rays.

 

 

Mechanical requirements:

  • The cathode shall be able to withstand the thermal and electrical Stress. 
  • The cathode shall be made of tungsten.
  • The anode shall be made of stainless steel.
  • The tube  shall be made of stainless steel.
  • The vacuum pump shall be able to create a vacuum in the stainless steel tube .

The electrons accelerator shall be manufactured according to the mechanical design  . 

  • The Helmholtz coil shall be made of two pieces of plastic ,on which copper tape is wound (Each piece is wrapped with 267 rolls) .

The Helmholtz coil shall be manufactured according to the mechanical design  .

  • The target which emit X-Rays when the electrons collide with it, shall be made of copper.
  • The window shall be made of glass for x-rays passing.
  • A camera shall be placed inside the tube so that we can see the path of the electrons.
  • The detector shall be placed outside the window to capture the x-rays and give a signal to the computer.
  • The Lead box shall be manufactured according to the mechanical design .

     

 

Electrical requirements:

  • The power supply (P1) shall be able to supply 9 V to the tungsten.
  • The Tungsten shall be able to generate enough  electrons to generate X-Rays . 
  • the power supply (P2) shall be able to supply a 10 kv voltage.
  • the power supply (P3) shall be able to supply a voltage of 21.7 V and a current of 3.61 A to the Helmholtz coil.

 

Magnetic requirements :

  • The Helmholtz coil shall be able to generate the magnetic field for the deflection of the electrons.
  • The Helmholtz coil shall be able to generate a magnetic field of 0.01T.

 

 

Safety requirements:

Electrical safety

  • The anode, which is made of stainless steel, shall be isolated from the tube, in order to prevent the voltage from extending and crossing the tube.
  • All the electric connection shall be coated by the right isolated according to the current and the voltage passing through the connections.
  • The cables and connections of 9V shall be isolated with...
  • The cables and connections of 10 Kv shall be isolated with...
  • The cables and connections of 21.7 V shall be isolated with...

 

Radiational safety

  • For protection against X-Rays, a metal box with a lead plate inside shall be placed at the point of X-Rays emission.

 

Chemical safety

  • Lead shall be completely enclosed to ensure that no toxic gases are emitted from it.
