Abstract :
The thermal and vibrational analysis of TWT sub-assemblies play an important role in any TWT design. It also aids in the understanding and improving of TWT sub-assemblies for their ruggedness. In this paper the results of thermal and vibrational analysis of an X-band CCTWT, carried out by using finite element analysis code "ANSYS" are presented.
