Abstract :
Cathodes were simulated in ANSYS, constructed and tested at Spectra-Mat, Inc. Goals of the simulation included development of parameters appropriate to cathode materials and development of an approach for fast warm-up (FWU) cathode simulation. Cathode model and simulation solutions will be presented and compared against the test results.
