It is used to dispose of high intensity beams between 450 GeV and 7 TeV and is thus designed to fast extract beam in a loss free way and to transfer it to an external absorber. The LHC Beam Dump System (LBDS) is such a system and one of the most critical once concerning machine protection and safe operation. It is obvious that such a machine needs well designed safety and protection systems. In addition up to 10 GJ are stored within the LHC magnet system at top energy. At this energy level and with nominal beam intensity the stored energy of 360 MJ per beam is sufficient to melt 500 kg of copper. The LHC accelerates proton beams to a momentum of up to 7 TeV/c. In the context of the MPS the LBDS is one of the safest systems and contributes to unavailability with an acceptable fraction of false dumps. the fast beam losses being the most critical event in the LHC) and their coverage, the safety of the MPS has been calculated between SIL2 and SIL4 with about 40 (Г‚В± 6) expected false dumps per year, which is the 10% of the machine fills. A simplified model of the LHC Machine Protection System (MPS), including the LBDS and other critical protection systems, has been analysed. The Beam Dumping System is part of the LHC machine Protection System for which a safety level SIе…ѓ is required. Several sensitivity analyses have been made providing additional evidence on the importance of the fault tolerant design features and the achieved trade-off between safety and availability. These results will be validated through a three months reliability run. The analysis of the system results in a safety level ranked SIL4 in the IEC 61508 standard and 4 (Г‚В± 2) expected false beam dumps generated per LBDS. The system failure processes have been represented with a state transition diagram, governed by a Markov regenerative stochastic process, and analysed for different operational scenarios for one year of operation. The system has been studied applying Failure Modes Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) and reliability prediction. This risk is reduced by applying redundancy to the design of the most critical components and on-line surveillance that, in case of a detected failure, issues a safe operation abort, called false beam dump. The consequences of a failure within the LBDS can be very severe.

There are two identical, independent LHC Beam Dumping Systems (LBDS), one per LHC beam, each consisting of a series of magnets that extract the particle beam from the LHC ring into the extraction line leading to the absorbing block. This thesis presents the dependability study of the Beam Dumping System of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the high energy particle accelerator to be commissioned at CERN in summer 2007.
