ANSYS Multiphysics Analysis

f = 324MHzΔf ~ 100kHZΔf/f ~ 1x10-4

Mesh not good enough?

Slater Perturbation Theorem

• Electric and magnetic fields rearrange in a deformed cavity

• ∴ Resonant frequency of cavity varies when its boundary surfaces move

Fill this copper volume with a vacuum body

Use vacuum to solve for resonant frequency

Use copper to solve for temperature and structural distributions

Predictions for 200kW input RF power:

Temperature rise ~1500 °C

Frequency Shift ~ 3 MHZ(but irrelevant for molten copper!)

Cooling Pipe Flow RequirementsTcmP p For P = 200 kW and ΔT = 40 °C

Need mass flow of 1.19 kg s-1

(If split over 4 pipes, need 0.3 kg s-1 per pipe)
