Abstract: The computer simulation of electron flow in linear-beam microwave tubes, such as a travelling-wave tube (TWT) and klystron, is used for designing and optimising the electron gun and collector and for analysing the large-signal beam-wave interaction phenomenon. Major aspects of simulation of electron flow in static and rf fields present in such tubes are discussed. Some advancements made in this respect and results obtained from computer programs developed by the research group at CEERI for a gridded electron gun, depressed collector, and large-signal analysis of TWT and klystron are presented.
