The design of the flowing heavy metal target with free surface under
proton beam irradiation within 0.8-1.6 GeV energy and the 10- 320 mA
current range was analyzed. Following data was submitted
the results of numerical modeling of the heat deposition in the
Pb-Bi eutectic flow due to the penetrating through it the proton beam;
the numerical investigation of swirling flow with free surface;
the calculation of the temperature distributions occurring in the
flowing heavy metal target because of the proton beam energy
deposition;
the main construction parameters of the flowing heavy metal targets
for the proton beams within 0.8-1.6 GeV energy and the 10-320 mA
current range;
the design and numerical investigations of the supersonic wind
shutter which is needed to isolate the vacuum part of the proton line;
the experiments of flowing water with a free surface for modeling of
a flowing heavy metal target.
