The Upgrade of COIL Facility in Lebedev Physical Institute (Samara Branch)

Abstract

The previous COIL facility in LPI (Samara Branch) consists of the jet type SOG operating at chlorine molar flow rate up to 20 mmole/ 5 and 5 cm gain length supersonic COIL. Pumping system consists of two mechanical pumps 180 1/s capacity and 4 m3 vacuum receiver. The iodine generator is able to generate 0.5 mmole/s of the iodine vapor molar flow rate. The chlorine feeding system is able to generate up to 30 mmole/s of chlorine molar flow rate during lOs. Several modifications have been made for COIL operation at higher chlorine flow rates (up to 100 mmole/s), at higher iodine flow rate ( up to 2 mmole/s) and with He gas dilution:
