Pulsed fusor #23 How to design a linac/ with example

[3l]

Oh no! ... the contaigon is spreading.
I just bought up a fairly complete Fm Radio station transmitter.
I found you could build a one tube oscillator and make it work with a linac.
The push pull schematic I posted in the high voltage section had two tubes to allow a half wave rectifier scheme to power it.
If you use one tube you need a full wave bridge rectifier for your power supply.
My first unit will run at 15kv and 144 mhz.
2 meter xtals were pretty easy to get in Memphis.
I'm currently working on a 50kv @ 1 mhz.(maybe)
I am thinking about using my thyratron in relaxation mode to do it.
Humm .... puts 500kev into ten sections (workshop) and 2 mev into 40 sections (yard hog).
(I'm not really convinced on boron reactor..but this machine would settle the matter for sure...at this energy the xformer system starts to get expensive and temperamental)

Currently for the 15 kv system I'm using 2 1/12" iron Water pipe for my vacuum container while using 3/4" copper pipe for dees and 3/8 copper pipe for the power feed sections.

Fusion is fun!
