RF Power Baseline Design 8 MW peak RF power: • RF Power Design driven by cost issues (no funds for a new system) • Optimal – one amplifier per cavity • Two amplifiers from LBNL = 4 MW total • One or two amplifiers from CERN = 4 MW total • If 1 amplifier – needs a bigger drive? • Possibly more coaxial components from CERN • Spare TH116 Tubes from ISIS • Low level RF and RF layout (not covered this time) Report from RF Session Derun Li
RF Power Amplifiers available at CERN/PS There is one more amplifier from Linac1: It got modified to 88 MHz (foreseen for tests with our 88 MHz cavity for the cooling channel in the CERN scenario. 2 MW (FTH triode tube) driver (LHC type, modified) available If amplifier is modified: 4 MW achievable, but driver must be pushed Of course: to modify to 88 MHz and modify again is not too attractive… Report from RF Session Derun Li
RF driver Amplifiers available at CERN/PS 200 MHz: 3 amplifiers 350 (400) kW, one available now, 2 more in the near future (with Siemens tube no longer built). Still several spare tubes in stock. One tube good for up to 15 000 h in 300ms, 1 Hz, not full power regime. Needs power supply for 40 kCHF. Switching via cathode (5 kCHF). GSI (Hutter) says that change to a tube which is still available is not a major issue… Report from RF Session Derun Li
RF Power and Distribution (1) • Hybrids versus circulators • Helpful discussions • Issues become clearer • Should come to an agreement soon • RF experience from two communities: (reflection & isolation of RF power – protection of components) Synchrotron/storage ring Linacs Options: circulators hybrids Costs expensive cheaper Reliability + √ Source klystrons triodes Operation mode 99% for users …… • A reasonable choice for MICE: hybrids Report from RF Session Derun Li
RF Power and Distribution (2) • Rigid 50 Ω, 4 1/16”- 9 3/16” coaxial transmission lines with pressurized gas • SF6 gives higher P/P’ ratio, but have safety issues • Dry N2 at ~ 2 atm absolute pressure Cost of the Components (by AM): The cost of components assuming 25 feet of 9 3/16 straight and 4 EL-Bows and 25 feet of straight 6 1/8 and 4 EL-Bows 25 feet ST 9 3/16 line $5,600 25 feet ST 6 1/8 line $3,700 4 EL-Bows 9 3/16 $10,300 4 EL-Bows 6 1/8 $6,800 The first Hybrid $8,000 Second Hybrid $4,500 First Hybrid Load $2,022 Second Hybrid Load $1,400 Mech.

Power Consumption (HH) Main power consumption and cooling requirements for 1 Hz and 1 ms pulse length: 2 4 MW rf require about 2 10 MW supply. Total: 20 kW with 0.1% duty cycle. Filament needs 2 360 A and 15 V = 2 5 kW = 10 kW. Total for final amplifiers: 30 kW Total for driver amplifiers: 10 kW Grand Total for rf amplifiers: 40 kW 50 % of power estimated to go into the cooling water: requires about 20 l/min water. The rest goes into the air… Available coax lines (9 inch?): 10 cubes for making 90 bends. Report from RF Session Derun Li
