Calculation Formula

Output Power (P) = k * f² * C * L * E²

Where:
P = Output Power (W)
k = Constant (1.2 × 10⁻¹²)
f = Frequency (MHz)
C = Circumference of anode cavity (cm)
L = Length of anode cavity (cm)
E = Electron Energy (keV)

Working Principle

The Magnetron Calculator estimates the output power of a magnetron based on its design parameters. The formula used is:

P = k * f² * C * L * E²

Where:

  • P is the output power in watts.
  • k is a constant (1.2 × 10⁻¹²).
  • f is the frequency in MHz.
  • C is the circumference of the anode cavity in cm.
  • L is the length of the anode cavity in cm.
  • E is the electron energy in keV.

This formula helps in understanding how different parameters affect the output power of a magnetron.
