Abstract

The folded waveguide (FWG) antenna is an advanced Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequencies launcher being designed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in collaboration with Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. There are two design options for the FWG. The first is a stacked and bolted FWG with a shear skin bolted to the side walls. The alternative design is an FWG with continuous side walls notched on the inside surface with a tapered slot for each vane. The FWG has been analyzed for ITER disruption and thermal loads. The electromagnetic forces have been calculated by SPARK and then applied to a NASTRAN finite element model for stress analysis. Maximum temperatures of the polarizing plate and the graphite bumpers that frame it have been analyzed using PThermal.
