25. L-band PWT Thermal Hydraulic Design ILCTA parameters: 5-Hz, 1370 microsecond-long rf pulses, 5 MW peak power at L band; 34.25 kW average power. In a PWT structure with 2 copper disks, 6 rods, a SS tank and two endplates, 6.03 kW goes into the 2 disks (3.015 kW each disk), 7.61 kW into the 6 rods (1.27 kW each rod), 16.06 kW into tank and 4.55 kW into endplates. A flow rate of 25 L/m inside the disk cooling channel 0.1” wide would keep the average disk temperature rise less than 10.3°C. Using 3 parallel cooling circuits, the required flow rate through each of the 3 inlet pipes is 64.5 L/m. A pressure head of 86 psi is sufficient to provide the needed flow through the sieve circuit and the disk/endplate cooling circuits.

A flow rate of 70 L/m and a water temperature of 15°C inside the disk cooling channel 0.1” wide would keep the average disk temperature rise at 13°C. Using 3 parallel cooling circuits, the required flow rate through each of the 3 inlet pipes is 50-155 L/m. A pump head of 240 psi is sufficient to provide the needed flow through the sieve circuit and the disk/endplate cooling circuits.

In a PWT structure with 2 copper disks, 6 rods, a SS tank and two endplates, 15.5 kW goes into the disk, 19.6 kW into the 6 rods (3.3 kW each rod), 41.4 kW into tank and 23.5 kW into endplates. A flow rate of 156 L/m (or 78 L/m) and a water temperature of 25°C (or 18 °C) inside the disk cooling channel 0.1” wide would keep the average disk temperature rise at 13°C. Using 3 parallel cooling circuits, the required flow rate through each of the 3 inlet pipes is 80-160 L/m (or 40-80 L/m). A pump head of 260 psi (or 65 psi) is sufficient to provide the needed flow through the sieve circuit and the disk/endplate cooling circuits.
