MYRRHA 80 kW CW RF Coupler Design
Résumé
MYRRHA [1] (Multi Purpose Hybrid Reactor for High Tech Applications) is an Accelerator Driven System (ADS) project. Its superconducting linac will provide a 600 MeV - 4 mA proton beam. The first project phase based on a 100 MeV linac is launched. The Radio-Frequency (RF) couplers have been designed to handle 80 kW CW at 352.2 MHz. This paper describes the thermal, mechanical and RF studies leading to the final design of the RF coupler.
