Description

The China Spallation Neutron Source upgrade project (CSNS-Ⅱ) uses 24 elliptical cavities in the LINAC section. Each cavity is equipped with a coaxial fundamental power coupler featuring a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω and a fixed coupling antenna. The coupler must withstand a minimum peak power of 600 kW with 5% duty factor and an equivalent average power of at least 40 kW. This paper details the multiphysics design, which encompasses electromagnetic optimization, multipacting analysis, and thermal -stress simulations. Additionally, the high-power conditionning results for the first batch of power couplers are presented.
