Helical Solenoids (HS) were proposed for a muon beam ionization cooling. There are substantial up to 30 MeV/m energy losses during passing the muon beam through an absorber. The main issue of such system is the energy recovery. A conventional RF cavity has diameter which is too large to be placed inside HS. In the paper presented results of dielectric filled RF cavity design. The proposed cavity has helical configuration. Presented Helical Cooling Channel module design which includes: high pressure vessel, RF cavity, and superconducting HS. Discussed parameters of this module sub-systems and shown results of muon beam tracking in combined magnetic and electric 3D fields.
