Elevation view of horn 3
with 183 cm tall man for scale
Need z dimension for placement of striplines through support module
Isometric view looking downstream
View looking downstream along axis of horn
Need this dimension too to fix the ear and stripline design
View looking upstream along axis of horn
Isometric view looking upstream
Close-up of upstream end of horn 3
128 M10 bolts
52 M16 ceramic washer assemblies
I did not put in all the bolts holding the ears to the horn yet
Horn without stripline or ears
Outer Conductor rendered transparent
Inner Conductor fully welded
Man next to ceramic ring
Concern about previous picture
• That is the largest ceramic ring I’ve ever seen.
• I recommend making a part drawing for it and sending it out to Japanese and US ceramics vendors for their comments.
• Handling this ring will require some special tooling to avoid cracking from bending stress.

Concern about previous picture
• The standard 110° “vee” spray nozzles may be too diffuse to get good heat transfer at the small radius of the center of the horn (“neck”).
• May need sharper, more circular nozzles to direct spray at the neck of the inner conductor.
Conclusions• Need more dimensions to finalize the
stripline and ear designs• This horn is the original geometry Ichikawa
sent me, not reduced by 90 mm (to be able to make flanges from available stock).– Large flanges may be made by forged rings
• I am slightly concerned about the relatively thin wall of the outer conductor leading to large tolerances/deflections from circularity– Flanges add stiffness and may keep OC
round—only analysis will tell.
