Applying computational codes functioning on the basis of methods such as Finite Integration caused the designing of different parts of an accelerator to be done faster and with more precision. The first step in using new software is the validation of these codes by experimental results, analytic relations or validating them against other codes whose validity has already been proved. This research aims to design an appropriate structure for thermionic electron gun of traveling wave electron-linac to be used to inject beam into synchrotron accelerators. Firstly, a simple structure of an electron gun used in TWT tube was simulated, and the parameters such as current, perveance, waist beam position, waist beam radius, beam radius entering anode aperture, and also the electric potential variation in the anode-cathode distance and the electric field of anode aperture were compared by experimental results and analytic relations. After verifying the software accuracy, a design for an electron gun with energy and current respectively 200 keV, 18 A and also initial beam radius of 8mm and minimum beam radius of 2.4 mm situated at the distance of 67.44mm from the cathode, was presented.
