TUP006 | Development of a Main Linac Module for Compact ERL Project | 404 |
|
||
A construction of the Compact ERL is planned in KEK, Japan. A demonstration of the performance of the main linac super-conducting accelerating system is one motivation of the project. We have been designing a cryo-module, which works under CW operation, and contains two 9-cell cavities, with input couplers, frequency tuners and HOM dampers. Most of these components have been specially developed for ERL operation. Two proto-type of the 9-cell cavity were constructed. First one was vertically tested and suffered from field emissions. Second one is now waiting a measurement. High power component tests have been carried out for input coupler. At first, large temperature rise was observed at a ceramic window part due to unexpected dipole resonance. After that, new version of window was designed and successfully passed 20kW CW power with reflection. Proto-types of HOM damper were also constructed. Cooling tests have been performed for them to verify cooling ability against more than 100W heat load, under vacuum condition. A cryo-module will be completed in 2012, and cooling tests and beam tests will follow. |
