This work package coordinates and supervises all project activities to ensure delivery of the final conceptual design. Responsibilities include progress monitoring, resource reallocation, communication across all levels, and organization of technical, administrative, and general meetings to guarantee efficient and timely execution. WP1 constitutes the central management hub of the project, integrating oversight with the strategic development of the HiPER+RF facility’s conceptual design.
Task 1.1: Integrate all technical outputs from WPs 2-7 into a coherent facility design, including the laser hall, chamber layout, and diagnostics, the required subsystems and the overall architecture
Task 1.2: Conduct trade-off analyses on various design options, among others chamber geometries and beamline layouts, to ensure a modular and upgradable design.
Task 1.3: Create 3D CAD models of the facility and perform simulations for thermal loads, shielding, and mechanical stress of critical components. Explore AI-driven control schemes for autonomous operation.
Task 1.4: Define and assess engineering constraints, including laser beam path, vacuum compatibility, and tritium handling. Deliver technical specifications for all utility systems, such as cooling loops andremote handling systems.
Task 1.5: Nuclear analysis for safety in the conceptual design of the facility. Define licensing requirements according to nuclear safety regulations.
Task 1.6: Conduct integrated design iterations with feedback from other WPs, including safety and logistics evaluations to support the pre-licensing phase.
