Abstract
The goal for the ESS facility is to construct an accelerator with the ability to deliver a 5 MW proton beam on the tungsten target. Most of the power is deposited as heat in the fluids and structures in and around the target. To be able to run the facility the nuclear heating from the spallation process need to be cooled in a safe and reliable way. The tungsten target in itself is helium cooled, but this system is in turn water cooled and there are several other water cooling systems, e.g. for moderators, reflectors and structural components. In this paper the water cooling systems are described and what challenges and requirements the systems needs to deal with.
