Description

This paper describes the design considerations of the Dragon-I linear induction accelerator (LIA) at Institute of Fluid Physics, China Academy of Engineering Physics. The Dragon-I facility is an electronic linac and consists of a -2.0 MV/+1.5 MV bi-polarity inductive adder injector, 72 accelerating cavities, pulsed-power system, beam-transport, control and auxiliary systems. It can produce an electron beam of 3 kA, 20 MeV with pulse width of 90 ns (FWHM). Good accelerating voltage pulse for each cavity with width of 120 ns (FWHM) and up to 60 ns flattop within ±1% variation has been obtained for high beam quality
