3 Claims. (Cl. 313-24) This invention relates to improve-ments in the structure of electron discharge tubes. More particularly, it concerns a novel heat-exchanging or cooling arrangement for electrodes which collect electrons discharged in such tubes at power levels that tend to raise the tube temperature an excessive amount. i
A high power traveling wave tube, for example, is an electron discharge tube wherein a large proportion of the power input is converted into heat in the tube body. Klystrons and certain high power diodes, triodes and tetrodes fall in the same category. In traveling wave tubes and in certain types of klystrons, the bulk of the electron beam is normally dissipated in the collector electrode, while in the other tubes, the bulk of electrons are received by an external anode or plate element. Accordingly, it is somtimes necessary to provide an arrangement for artificially cooling such electrode elements, in order to prevent serious tube injury.
The present invention is related to and is an improvement over prior art arrangements `that achieve cooling by providing a lio-w of a fluid substance, liquid or gas, over normally hot portie-ns of the tube. To this end, the
' present arrangement employs a collector electrode or anode (depending on the tube to which the invention is applied) which is integrally provided on its outwardlyfacing surface with a large number of outwardly-projecting, symmetrically-spaced spines or protuberances. A housing is fitted over the spined surface for containing a fluid coolant which is supplied through conduit means by natural or forced convection. The housing and supply conduit are positioned in such a manner with respect to the spined surface and a manifold-like discharge chamber formed in the assembly of housing and electrode that the Huid coolant is caused to be turbulently distributed in all directions in a uniform general ow pattern from the supply conduit to among the numerous spines, finally to enter the discharge chamber and to exit by Way of an outlet conduit connected to the chamber.
The spines thus included in the electrode on the surface thereof opposite to that which receives the electrons serve to increase the available wetted area, hence they proportionately increase the rate of heat transfer. A further increase in the rate of heat transfer arises from the turbulence of flow induced by the spines. Such turbulence is promoted at low rates of flow where the coolant motion, in the absence of spines, would be laminar. That is to say, with spines absent, turbulence could be achieved by increasing the rate of flow o-f coolant above a given critical velocity. However, high ow rate is unobtainable with natural convection and is disadvantageous from the viewpoint of eiiiciency with forced convection, since the pressure drop, and therefore the pumping power requirement where a circulating pump is employed, increases in proportion to a considerably greater exponential power of the discharge than does the coeilcient of heat transfer.
The principal object of the present invention, therefore, is to provide an improved heat exchanging or cooling arrangement for electrodes which collect electrons in electron discharge tubes at power levels that tend to raise the temperature of such tubes an excessive amount.
Another object is the provision of an outwardly-spined surface on the external electrode of Aan electron discharge tube including an arrangement for uniformly disl persing fluid coolant from a given area centrally located of the spined surface to the outer extremities of the surface by way of the interstices formed by the spines.
With the foregoing .and other objects in view, the present invention includes the novel elements and the combinations and arrangements thereof described below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Fig. 1 is a side view, partly `in section, of a traveling wave to which the present invention is applied;
Fig. 2 is an end View, partly in section, of the output end of the tube depicted in Fig. 1; and i Fig. 3 is a side View, partly in section, of a canisterlike electrode element embodying the present invention.
ln Fig. l, the invention is embodied for illustrative purposes in a traveling wave vacuum tube 5. Radio frequency energy may be coupled intothe left-hand or input end of a helical conductor 6 by way of a transmission line input connection, which may be a coaxial line connectoi 7, so as to interact in a well-known manner with an electron beam provided by an electron gun element 9 to the left of the input coupling connection. Helix 6 runs longitudinally of and within tube 5, being supported by a plurality of ceramic rods 8, the mounting arrangement for which includes the transition elements 30, 31. Amplified radio frequency energy may be.` coupled from the right-hand outputend of helix 6 by way of a second transmission line connection which may be a coaxial line connector 10 like connector 7.
The output end of tube 5 includes a collector electrode 11 of novel configuration to be more fully described and a magnetic focusing pole piece 12, the ycollector electrode 11 being joined to the pole piece 12 by means of a conductive cylindrical shell 13 forming part of the evacuated envelope of the tube. The pole piece 12 has an opening 14 therethrough for passage of the beam of electrons axially of the tube towards the collector electrode 11 from electron gun 9 at the input end of the tube. y
Collector electrode 11 is preferably of highly conductive material and includes a circular plane surface 15 normal to the tube axis, which surface faces the input end of the tube and directly communicates with the evacuated interior of the tube. The other or external surface of the collector electrode 11 includes a multitude of equallydimensioned, outwardly-projecting and symmetricallyspaced spines 16, the aggregation of which is circularly bounded near the outer circumference of electrode 1,1 by a shallow annular channel-like depression 17 (see Fig. 2) in the outer surface of the electrode. The portion of electrode 11 between the depression17 and the electrodes circumference forms an annular flange 18 provided with a plurality of tapped holes 19 `to receive screws 20 for mounting a flanged housing or container 21 in position over the outer surface of the electrode, A gasket 22 provides a fluid-tight connection between container 21 and the electrode surface. l i i It is to be understood that wherever the term spine is employed in the description of the present invention, it is meant to include protuberances that are` prismatic, cylindrical, or conical in shape. 'In fact, the spines may be those protuberances that would be produced by deeply knurling the electrodes outer surface. Accordingly, While in the embodiments illustrated, the spines are prismatic and form a waffle-iron type of structure, this particular type of spinal-configuration is by way of illustration and is not to be taken in a limiting sense.
The container 21 is provided with an outwardly-projecting inlet conduit 23 through which a Huid coolant is supplied to the container. Conduit 23 is coaxial both with tube 5 and the spined surface portion of electrode 1Y0 (see Fig. 2). A compression fitting 24 serves to couple conduit 23 toa pipe 25 connected to the coolant source.
`envelope of the tube.
jecting outlet conduit 26 through which uid coolant is exhausted from the container. Conduit 26 communicates with the annular depression, 17 in the outer surface of electrode 11, which depression together with a portion of container 21 overlapping the spinal extremities o'f the outer surface forms an annular manifold-like discharge chamber 27 for the iiuid coolant supplied from conduit 23. A compression fitting 28 serves to couple conduit 26 to a pipe 29 which may be integral with pipe 25 if natural convection is to be relied upon for iiuid circulation, or which may be connected to the sump of a circulating pump supplying pipe if forced convection is to be employed.
Three major factors in the design of the present apparatus apart from the spines themselves determine the success of the. apparatus in providing a turbulent distribution of liuid coolant in all directions in a uniform general lflow pattern from the supply conduit to among the numerous spines, finally to enter the discharge chamber and ,to exit by way of an outlet conduit connected to the charnber. Two of the design factorsare met respectively by the central or coaxial location of the inlet conduit 23 vequidistant from the spined extremities of the electrodes outer surface, and by the provision of an annular dis- `charge chamber 27 surrounding such extremities.
That is to say, the coaxial location of the inlet conduit 23 permits distribution of fluid coolant in all directions, while the annular configuration of chamber 27 insures a uni- Vform resistance to the flow of the coolant toward disin a path of least resistance, the primary ow of the fluid takes place among the spines, thereby to produce If desired, the spacing between the outer ends of spines 16 and the adjacent wall of container 21 may be eliminated altogether, in which event part of the heat in the spines would be directly conducted to container 21 from whence it would be radiated.
Referring now to Fig. 3, the invention is depicted as it may be applied to a collector electrode, the collecting surface of which is canister-shaped, or to the cylindrical anode of certain high power tubes where such anode is external and forms the major portion of the evacuated Thus, in Fig. 3, a canister-shaped electrode 33 is integrally provided on its outer surfaces (both plane and cylindrical) with a multitude of equallydimensioned, outwardly-projecting and symmetricallyspaced spines 34. A flanged canister-like container 35 is secured by a plurality of screws 36 to a flanged portion of the base of electrode 33, and the container is such as toiit closely over the outer ends of spines 34. An annular chamber 37 coaxial Vwith electrode 33 is formed at the spinal extremities of the electrodes planar surface, i. e., where the cylindrically-disposed spines meet the planedisposed spines. Another annular chamber 38 coaxial with electrode 33 is formed between container 35 and electrode 33'at the spinal extremities of the cylindrical surface adjacent the flanged portions where the container and electrode are connected.
Fluid coolant is supplied to container 35 through an 'outwardly projecting inlet conduit 40, which like conduit 23 (Fig. 1) is coaxial with the spined-planar surface of the electrode. Coolant is removed, however, through an outlet conduit 41 in direct communication with chamber 38 instead of chamber 37. By this arrangement, the coolant that enters inlet conduit turbulently disperses in all directions in the interstitial conduits among the planedisposed spines in a generally radial flow pattern to enter chamber 37, thence to further disperse in all directions in the interstitial conduits among the cylindrically-disposed spines in a generally longitudinal ow pattern to discharge into chamber 38 and finally exit through outlet vconduit 41. Thus, the advantages obtained from close container spacing, annular'discharge chambers, and an inlet conduit location equidistant from the spinal extremities of electrode surface are once again attained in Fig. 3 as in Fig. l.
Since many changes could be made in the above construction and many apparently widely different embodiments of this invention could be made without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawings shall be interpreted as illustrative and Y not in a limiting sense.
