	For high luminosity electron-positron colliders, intense positron beam production is one of the key issues. Flux Concentrator (FC) is a pulsed solenoid that can generate high magnetic field of several Tesla and is often used for focusing positrons emerged from a production target. It works as an optical matching device in a positron capture section. With this device, high capture efficiency is achieved. In this paper, we will introduce a new design of a FC for the SuperKEKB positron source. The advantages of the new design are: 1. the aperture could be doubled of the previous design, 2. the transverse components are only 1/10 of the previous design, 3. maintain the same high peak longitudinal field. The new FC modeling has been done in CST Studio and we will report the results of new FC field evaluation. In order to calculate the positron yield and capture efficiency, a tracking simulation to the end of capture section has also been carried out, which is also included in this paper.

For high luminosity electron-positron colliders, intense positron beam production is one of the key issues.
