From the project
This is a project done at EST-RUB. Here is the control and interface of a vacuum system using a Pfeiffer turbo pump plus a backing pump
The setup still has to be simulated to find out V_c and to check the accuracy of the voltages selected for the grid and the plate.
Initially were the following voltages set: VS 6.4 V VC: 6.4 V VG= 400 V VP= 1000 V
The result for the obtained trajectory is shown below. The obtained current was around 5 mA.
However, the shape of the electron beams seems to change its shape in a very drastic way. Making the VC smaller (more negative) should help concentring more the electrons to the center of the beam. A second simulation was made sweeping the voltage of the WehneltCylinider between -10 V and…
