Abstract :
The Cryogenic System of the Satellite Refrigerator for the Energy Saver Accelerator Ring comprises 12 interrelated closed loops and several open loops. A quasi-optimal algorithm to control the Cryogenic System, under different modes operation, is described. The constraints imposed to define these algorithms and the process followed to characterize the functional parameters are described. A report on the results obtained with the algorithms in a test facility will be presented.
