Measured amplitude and phase variation for GTF gun over 20 minutes. Amplitude and phase oscillation due to 0.1˚C peak-peak temperature oscillation.

Injector RF Design Review November 3, 2004 John Schmerge, SLAC Pulsed Heating Stored Energy at 140 MV/m is 9.1 J. Energy per macro pulse dissipated in the structure is 33 J with  = 1.3,  = 580 ns and 3  s long rf pulse. At 120 Hz this corresponds to 4 kW. GTF gun with water cooling dissipates only 330 W at 10 Hz and 140 MV/m. BNL, SHI, University of Tokyo gun with water cooling dissipates < 1 kW at 50 Hz and 100 MV/m. Need a factor of 4 increase in average power dissipation. Possible problems with thermal distortions changing resonant frequency and field distribution. Possible problem with pulsed stress leading to Cu material failure.

Injector RF Design Review November 3, 2004 John Schmerge, SLAC RF Coupler Temperature and Stress Stress (Pa)Temperature (˚C) 3D model with 2X GTF coupling iris thickness (112 mils)

Injector RF Design Review November 3, 2004 John Schmerge, SLAC Results 4 cooling channels including 1 on the cathode plate. Moving cooling channels to gun body OD increases stress by a factor of 2. ANSYS predicts 230 W load changes the GTF gun frequency by 125 kHz and observe ≈ kHz. ANSYS predicts 80 kHz LCLS gun frequency shift when changing from no load with 30 ˚C water to 4 kW load with 14 ˚C water. 3D ANSYS analysis shows rf coupling iris has the highest stress and temperature. RF coupling iris must be thicker to reduce stress.
