STUDY OF METHODS TO IMPROVE HIGH POWER KLYSTRON LIFE AND RELIABILITY.
Abstract
Studies were conducted in the following areas. (1) Filament Studies: The cycling test on three filaments under dc conditions at rated power was completed; Bell jar tests at 20% excess power were completed; Tests are continuing on seven diodes (three with ac on heaters and four with dc on heaters); Six new testers with modified cathode structures will be placed on the test rack. (2) Window Studies: The test setup for studying arcs was completed, including the arc generator and arc protection circuits; A number of tests were made on two half-wave thick block windows to determine the effect of arcs striking the window; One window was tested to destruction.
