For the CW electron source upgrade, a fully superconducting CW gun is under experimental development at DESY in Hamburg, and a normal conducting (NC) CW gun is under physics design at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ) as a backup option. Based on the experience of the LBNL on a 187 MHz gun, the DESY 217 MHz gun increased the cathode gradient and RF power to 28 MV/m and 100 kW, respectively, to further improve the beam brightness. In this paper, the multiphysics analysis investigating the RF, thermal and mechanical properties of the 217 MHz NC CW gun are presented.
