Thermal Characteristics of Cryogenic Target with Different Types of Capsule Supports
three-dimensional cryogenic target models are established based on the discrete ordinates radiation model and Boussinesq hypothesis to investigate the perturbations of capsule thermal distribution caused by the use of capsule supports. Variations of temperature and flow field distributions as well as the sensitivity to helium pressure in hohlraum with different capsule supports are obtained. Finally
the influence of foam material parameters of the foam shell support is investigated. The results show that the targets using tent and polar tent supports have more uniform capsule temperature distribution than those with the fill-tube support and rod support as a result of the weakened natural convection inside the hohlraum. The tent support is more effective than the polar tent support due to its better film arrangement. For the two types of non-film supports
the pure fill-tube support provides the worst temperature uniformity due to its larger fill-tube diameter when compared with the rod support. Under typical operating conditions
the capsule with tent support has the smallest maximum temperature difference of 2.45 mK; the maximum temperature differences of the capsule with the polar tent support
fill-tube support and rod support are 5.92%
32.71% and 17.99% higher
respectively. Moreover
the temperature uniformity deteriorates with the increase of helium pressure for the four support types. The temperature uniformity of the tent support and polar tent support is less sensitive to the helium pressure change. For the foam shell support
a more uniform capsule temperature distribution can be obtained by choosing a foam shell with higher thermal conductivity and smaller thickness. The calculation results can serve as a theoretical basis to some extent for the engineering design of the capsule support.
