LINAC Test 18/01/23
In this test, we repeated the same steps of the previous test ( Test 16.01.23) to make sure that the problem was really from the tungsten used .
(we made some changes in the electrical connections).
And the result was the same, which is the combustion of the tungsten.
00002: power supply
Step | Step description | Expected result | Result |
Precondition | System is Off | ||
Switch On the system | turn on the power supply (P1) | Get continuous power (6 V) | positive |
Switch Off the system | turn Off the power supply (P1) | Continuous power stops | positive |
Postcondition | System is Off |
00003: Get electrons
Step | Step description | Expected Result | Result |
Precondition | System is Off | ||
Switch On the pump | turn On the pump | 95% vacuum | positive |
Switch on the power supply | Turn on the power supply | Get continuous power (6 V) | positive |
Burning the Tungsten (or use a electron Gun) | Burn the Tungsten by supplying it with 6 V power |
Get electrons around the Tungsten ( the lamp will light) |
positive (the lamp turned on) |
Switch Off the power supply | turn Off the power supply | the lamp will turn Off | positive (the lamp continues to light) |
Switch Off the pump | turn Off the pump | the pump stops pulling out the air | positive |
Postcondition | System is Off |
00004:High voltage
Step | Step description | Expected Result | Result |
Precondition | System is Off | ||
Switch On the system | Turn On the HV | Get continuous power ( between 5 Kv and 60 Kv ) | positive |
Switch Off the system | Turn Off the HV | Continuous power stops | positive |
Postcondition | System is Off |
00005: Acceleration of electrons
Step | Step description | Expected Result | Result |
Precondition | System is Off | ||
Switch on the pump | Turn on the pump | 95% vacuum | positive |
Switch On the power supply | turn On the power supply | Get continuous power (6 V) | positive |
Switch On the High Voltage | Turn on the HV power supply | Get continuous power ( between 5 Kv and 60 Kv ) | positive |
electrons acceleration | Connecting the high voltage to the anode and the cathode (while controlling the change of force until we see the passage of electrons and their acceleration) | Electrons leaving the anode accelerate towards the cathode and collide with it | negative |
Switch Off the HV | Turn Off The HV power supply | Electrons acceleration Stop | negative (no electrons yet) |
Switch Off the power supply | turn Off the power supply | the lamp will turn Off | positive |
Switch Off the pump | turn Off the pump | the pump stops pulling out the air | positive |
Postcondition | System is Off |
This is the transformer that takes a voltage of 220 V and gives a voltage of 6 V:
Here we connect the 6 volt power to the high voltage:
