ABSTRACT

Klystron is vacuum electron device operating in microwave range of frequencies. It is used as power amplifier in a variety of systems including radars, particle accelerators and thermonuclear reactors. A precise simulation of beam wave interaction in klystron is useful not only to understand its operation but also in development of tube with minimum iterations in fabrication. In the present case standard design codes like POISSON'S SUPERFISH, AJDISK and MAGIC 2D have been used to estimate and optimize different design parameters of klystron for desired tube performance. The paper presents the results of RF-section simulation of 250 kW CW C-band klystron with specifications as given in Table 1.
