The RF cavity design has to deal with challenging requirements: high electric fields created by the required accelerating voltage (60 kV – 70 kV) on a small gap, a small aperture of the magnet leading to high capacitances and thermal losses, and a requirement for a low overall size of the cavity. A quarter wave resonator with one dee (two acceleration gaps) design was chosen. Calculations with HFSS have been performed to compute the resonant frequency, tuners sensitivity, S-parameters, power losses and geometry for input coupler and pickup. A structural Ansys model has been used to analyze the stresses and the deformations of the cavity. A thermal Ansys model was used for the design of the cooling circuits and the calculation of the temperature distribution. Finally, the fluid dynamics of the cooling circuits have been carefully studied. The results of these calculations and the consequent design decisions are presented in this paper.

The AMIT cyclotron will be a 8.5 MeV, 10 microAmp, CW, H⁻ accelerator for the purpose of radioisotope production.

Calculations with HFSS have been performed to compute the resonant frequency, tuners sensitivity, S-parameters, power losses and geometry for input coupler and pickup. A structural Ansys model has been used to analyze the stresses and the deformations of the cavity. A thermal Ansys model was used for the design of the cooling circuits and the calculation of the temperature distribution.
