POWER CONVERTERS

electro-mechanical device for converting

electrical energy

=> high accuracy / controlling of magnets

14.-15. SEPTEMBER 2019

SIMULATION OF PARTICLE

ACCELERATOR

EQUIPMENT

ESP-32 wroom

LED WS2812b

ARDUINO platform

PROGRAMMING

CODE

VISITSSVC, CCC & AMS Centre

SVC - STATIC VAR

COMPENSATOR

Used for the stability of

the power grid, when the

SPS is active

Eliminates disturbances

caused by changes in

reactive power and

voltage fluctuations

CCC - CERN CONTROL

CENTRE

monitors and controls the particle accelerators: PS/Booster, SPS, LHC &

technical infrastructure

AMS CENTRE- ALPHA

MAGNETIC SPECTROMETER

Particle detector for precision

measurements of cosmic rays,

dark matter & anti matter
