Cooling and Ventilation (CV) Group

The group is in charge of:

  • Design, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the cooling systems, pumping stations, air conditioning plants and fluid distribution systems of all accelerators, their experimental areas and some of the special cooling systems of LHC sub-detectors. 
  • Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, as well as studies on fluid dynamics, ventilation, heat transfer, smoke behavior, gas and radio nuclides propagation are performed by the group.
