FORGE: Summer Internship Experience
The presentation summarizes my summer internship experience with the Fluids Group at Fermilab. During the internship, I learned about the maintenance and operation of water pumps and other equipment that support important facility systems. I worked alongside fluids technicians and gained hands-on experience with maintaining machinery, installing pipes, refilling water, cleaning RF cavities, and observing new water-pump construction for PIP-II. My projects included repairing an air dryer, learning how heat exchangers cool low-conductivity water, and cleaning the copper cooling rings used in RF cavities. Overall, this experience helped me better understand the work processes of technicians and the importance of practical technical knowledge for engineers.
