  Within the scope of the FAIR project (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) at GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research in Darmstadt, Germany, the front end of the existing High Charge State Injector (HLI) is planned to be upgraded for cw operation. The required newly revised 4-Rod RFQ structure is currently being designed at the Institute for Applied Physics (IAP) of the Goethe University of Frankfurt. It will be operated with a 100 kW power amplifier at 108 MHz. At first instance a dedicated 4-stem prototype, which is based on the RFQ design for MYRRHA* and FRANZ**, is planned to be manufactured in order to validate the simulated RF performance, thermal behavior and mechanical characteristics in continuous operation. The RF simulations as well as basic thermal simulations are done using CST Studio Suite. In order to prevent oscillations of the electrodes mechanical eigenmodes are analyzed using ANSYS Multiphysics. In addition the ANSYS software allows more sophisticated simulations regarding the cooling capability by considering fluid dynamics in water cooling channels, thus providing a more detailed thermal analysis.
