The fluid duct or and extending into the reentrant space between ducts connected with the jacket are preferably the anode body and upturned flange 3. The arranged within the electrical conduit terminateo'ole'r also includes an annular finned section M ing at the anode. 'o'fmetal secured to core 23 and having radial fins In greater detail, and referring to Figure 1 of extending outwardly from the anode body the drawing, my improved electron tube c'omabove flange 3. A curved bottom plate 2'! on see- .pri'ses a metallic reentrant anode forming'the 'up- 'tion 24 serves to direct a cooling fluid outwardly per end ortions ofthe tube envelope and having atthebase of the fins.
One important advantage of the reentrant anode and cooler combination above described is that heat conducting core 23 contacts the full length of the anode body, including that portion projecting into the envelope, and serves to conduct heat uniformly away from the anode. As a result the advantage of an inwardly projecting anode structure for high frequency-work is obtained without decreasing the heat dissipation properties of the tube, it being understood that the power output of a tube is proportional to' its anode dissipation capabilities.
While I have shown anode body 2 and coller core 23 as separate pieces, it is understood that they may be formed integrally. The separately,
formed anode of sheet material is preferred however because the fabrication problem is simplified and it is possible to heat the anode on the pump to a higher temperature for outgassing purposes, it being preferred to apply core 23 to the anode after the tube has been evacuated.
As shown in Figure 1, anode body 2 with its cooler assembly is inserted in the end of a conduit 28 so that fins 2b lie in the space between the anode and conduit. A cooling fiuid such as air is forced down through the conduit 50 that it flows past fins 26 and out through openings 29. Conduit 28 is metallic and makes electrical contact with the anode through the cooler so that the conduit also functions as the anode line or circuit for the tube.
In a modified anode cooler structure shown in Figure 2 a metallic jacket 3! is fitted on anode body 2, with the lower end of the jacket extending into the reentrant portion of the anode. This jacket is preferably inserted into the lower end of anode circuit conduit 28. In this cooling system jacket 3| provides an expansion chamber, a suitable pressure fluid being expanded into the jacket through a small orifice in nozzle 32. A duct 33 in conduit 28 connects nozzle 32 witha suitable source 36 of the pressure fluid. Duct 33 is arranged in conduit 28 so as not to interfere with the electrical properties of the anode circuit.
The expanded fluid is discharged to the atmosphere from jacket 3i through outlets 36.
Another cooler structure is illustrated in Figure 3 which includes a second duct 31 connected with jacket SI for returning the low pressure fluid back to source 3 3. In this case the source 34 preferably includes a compressor for re-compressing the fiuid. The cooling medium or refrigerant may be any suitable fluid such as sulphur dioxide or methal chloride.
It will be seen that the tube structures shown in Figures 2 and 3 both comprise a metallic anode having a heat dissipation portion projecting externally of the envelope; a fluid expansion chamber thermally connected with the projecting portion of the anode; and means for expanding a pressure fluid into the chamber. As previously mentioned, the hollow end of the anode unit preferably extends within the tube envelope. These structures have a decided advantage for high power high frequency tubes because it is possible to achieve large heat dissipations [in tubes of relatively small size.
