Conceptual design studies of an 84 GHz, 500 kW, CW gyrotron

摘要

The feasibility of an 84 GHz, 500 kW, CW gyrotron for ECRE on an experimental tokamak will be presented in this paper. Mode competition and mode selection procedures are carefully investigated by considering various candidate modes and the TE10,4 mode is chosen as the operating mode. A conventional cylindrical cavity resonator with weak input and output tapers and parabolic roundings is considered for interaction studies. Self-consistent, both single-mode and time-dependent, calculations axe carried out and power and efficiencies are computed for a typical set of beam parameters. The results show that an output power of well over 500 kW, CW and efficiency around 40% can be reached without a depressed collector.
