Abstract :
The hot model for the coupled cavity drift tube linac (CCDTL) resonance control cooling system (RCCS) for the Low Energy Demonstration Accelerator (LEDA) in support of the accelerator production of tritium (APT) is described. Two hydraulic control loops are described that control the frequency in the CCDTL hot model cavity. The two loops supply the required flow to the 32 channels. The control system schema is described to regulate the resonant frequency during steady state operation
