Abstract

In this paper thermal and structural analysis for 170 GHz, 1 MW gyrotron interaction cavity and the effect of structural deformation on beam wave interaction is presented. Finite element analysis codes ANSYS has been used for the thermal and structural analysis. Electromagnetic simulator-MAGIC, a Particle-in-Cell (PIC) code, has been used to carry out the effect of the radial expansion of the interaction cavity on beam wave interaction. The change in output power and resonant frequency for operating mode TE34,10 due to thermal expansion is 10 kW and 0.07 GHz, respectively. These values are under the tolerance limit of power and frequency of the gyrotron. The major variation is found in the power growth stability time.
