Members of the ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø Fuelling Section took a four-day trip to the Southwest Institute of Physics (SWIP) in Chengdu, China, where they had intensive discussions on the ongoing design task for the ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø gas injection system and the glow discharge cleaning system: Tao Jiang (SWIP), Mingxu Wang (SWIP), Bo Li (SWIP), Xiangqin Zhang (ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø China), Bob Brewster (ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø), Min Wang (ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø China), So Maruyama (ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø) and Yu Yang (ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø). SWIP will soon install the test bed for transient measurement of the ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø gas injection and an electrode prototype for the discharge cleaning. This facility will provide valuable information to verify the design of both systems.
