  Myrrha is an accelerator driven system (ADS) hybrid research reactor designed for spent nuclear fuel burning. The linac controlling the reactor has to be highly reliable (low failure rate). In order to fulfill requirements of ADS projects like Myrrha, IPNO and Thales are involved in a power couplers research and development program. We develop a power coupler window, with MAX RF design, for 80 kW CW input power. During the study, we take account of fabrication and cost issues. We present in this paper the result of simulations needed to design this coupler window. The electromagnetic, thermal and thermo-mechanical simulations were performed with Ansys. The multipacting simulations were performed with Musicc3D, software developed by IPNO. The conditioning and test bench is also described as two prototypes have to be tested this autumn.

  IPNO and Thales are conducting power couplers research and development. This paper present a new window design that fulfills European Spallation Source (ESS) requirements (400 kW RF peak power). The results of electromagnetic, thermal, thermo-mechanical, multipacting simulations and the consequences of the new ceramic window of power coupler will be reported. The multipacting simulations were performed with Musicc3D, software developed by IPNO. The new design overcome ceramic's weakness in tension and allows stronger constraints in the power coupler window.
