Abstract

Summary form only given. The experimental realization of a capillary-cooled transmission window for energetic particles and radio frequency waves is progressing from a single tube to a multi-tube design, and then to a two-dimensional window. Empirical heat-transfer results using capillary tubing and a 28-MPa (4,000-psi) distilled water hydraulic system are discussed. Details on a high-pressure hydraulic system suitable for cooling a transmission window are quantified. Techniques for assembling multiple capillary tubes into a single manifold are presented.
