Disclosed herein is a high-power device for supplying a radiofrequency electromagnetic field to a waveguide. The device comprises a magnetron configured to supply a radiofrequency electromagnetic field to a waveguide and a control unit configured to control the magnetron to output radiofrequency energy to the waveguide. The magnetron comprises a high voltage pulse connection enclosed in an enclosure, a heater connection configured to allow an electrical connection to penetrate the enclosure and a mechanism configured to transmit data between the magnetron and the control unit.

A magnetron includes an anode cylindrical body, a plurality of vanes, a cathode filament, an input-side magnetic pole, an output-side magnetic pole, and a choke structure. The anode cylindrical body has a cylindrical shape with an input-side opening part and an output-side opening part. The plurality of vanes is radially disposed from a central axis of the anode cylindrical body to an inner wall surface of the anode cylindrical body. The cathode filament is disposed along the central axis of the anode cylindrical body. The input-side magnetic pole and the output-side magnetic pole are disposed on the input-side opening part and the output-side opening part, respectively. The choke structure is seamlessly formed and disposed so as to cover an opening rim of the input-side magnetic pole with respect to the central axis of the anode cylindrical body.

An anode structure for a magnetron provides for low eddy currents and efficient water cooling. The anode structure may be made by machining a bimetal blank including an out layer of a first metal and an inner layer of a second metal and formed by explosion bonding. The second metal has a resistivity lower than first metal and a thermal conductivity higher than the first metal. The machining may result in the anode structure with vanes each having a center (tip) portion made of the second metal and the rest made of the first metal. The machined anode structure may be coated with the second metal.

A magnetron cooling fin has a flat plate shape in which one or a plurality of corrugated regions are formed in a body of the magnetron cooling fin to improve cooling efficiency thereof. A magnetron cooling fin in which a corrugated region processed to increase a contact area in contact with air is formed around a through-hole through which an anode unit of a magnetron passes, thereby improving cooling efficiency thereof.

An electrical arrangement, which may, for example be a magnetron, has a sealed chamber and electrically insulating fluid contained within the chamber. A temperature expansion compensation bladder comprising a helical tube is located within the chamber, the helical tube having an end open to ambient atmosphere outside the chamber, and having a closed end within the chamber.
