In order to remove the high heat density generated in the mercury target effectively under the 1MW proton beam operation, we have proposed the Cross Flow Type (CFT) target using bladed flow distributors. From three dimensional numerical simulations using the general purpose computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code (STAR-CD), it was found that the maximum local temperature rise could be suppressed less than 58.2K under a mercury flow rate of 40m~3/h. This paper presents the current CFD analytical results of the 1MW CFT mercury target.
