通过分析行波管螺旋导电面模型中的电磁场,给出了色散和耦合阻抗计算公式,并深入研究了非线性理论中的空间电荷降低因子.结果表明,螺旋导电面模型相对理想导电圆筒中的空间电荷降低因子在较高频段变化不大.空间电荷降低因子的变化反映了螺旋线外电磁场对电子注的作用,同样的慢波结构,较高频率的电磁场应有较大的影响.因此,使用螺旋导电面模型在较高频段计算空间电荷降低因子是不合适的。
The electromagnetic field of helix TWTs in the sheath model is analyzed. The dispersion and coupling impedance equations are derived and the one-dimensional space charge reduction factor is discussed in detail. The study shows that the difference of the space charge reduction factor between the sheath model and the perfect conducting tube is small at high frequency. The difference can be interpreted as the effect of the sheath helix. The higher frequency electromagnetic field has greater ability to affect the e-beam. Therefore, the space charge reduction factor equation based on the sheath helix model is inappropriate at high frequency.
