We studied structure of cavity magnetrons and physics behind it deeply in this thesis. The main purpose of this study is to observe parameters which affect generated power of magnetron negatively or positively. Basically, they are crossedfield devices and electrons generate RF power with the help of both electric and magnetic field. We analyzed the physics of electron motion in magnetron and came up with a power equation. Then, we studied a cylindrical hole-slot-type magnetron with specific sizes and plotted curves to visualise which parameters have an effect on power and how. It was determined as a result of analyzes that applied voltage between the anode and cathode parts, resonator number, cathode radius and angular resonant frequency are directly proportional with generated power. Contrary to this, increase in gap factor and loaded quality factor decreases the generated power. After all, for used magnetron and value range of parameters that we used, the working values which give the maximum power generation are 0.5 for gap factor, 5 for the loaded quality factor and 2.2 cm for cathode radius. Moreover, much more number of resonator and higher angular resonant frequency provide much more power generation.

Inverted organic solar cell applications of benzodithiophene and benzotriazole bearing alternating copolymers
Bolayır, Eda; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2018)
In this thesis, electrochemical, optical and photovoltaic studies of two novel benzodithiophene and 1,2,3-benzotriazole bearing alternating copolymers were investigated. Benzodithiophene which has a strong electron donating ability and planar structure was used as the donor moiety. On the other hand, benzotriazole was used as an acceptor moiety due to its electron deficient nature. In order to determine the effect of л-bridges, thiophene (P1) and selenophene (P2) moieties were incorporated between the donor...
An optimization study for rotorcraft avionics bay cooling
Akin, Altug; Kahveci, Harika Senem (2019-07-01)
In this paper, a computational investigation of a rotorcraft avionics-bay cooling system is carried out. The introduced avionics cooling system utilizes a forced-convection method in which the ambient air is supplied to the avionics bay by a fan and then exhausted back into the ambient after cooling the equipment inside. The aim of this system is to keep the air temperature in the vicinity of the avionics equipment below the operational temperature limits. Depending on the locations of the fan and exhaust, ...
A tunable multi-band metamaterial design using micro-split SRR structures
EKMEKÇİ, Evren; TOPALLI, Kagan; Akın, Tayfun; Sayan, Gönül (2009-08-31)
This paper presents the results of a feasibility study for the design of multi-band tunable metamaterials based on the use of micro-split SRR (MSSRR) structures. In this study, we have designed and constructed a conventional split-ring resonator (SRR) unit cell (type A) and two modified SRR unit cells having the same design parameters except that they contain two (type B) or four (type C) additional micro-splits on the outer square ring, along the arm having the main split. Transmission characteristics of t...
MODELING OF EVAPORATION FROM A SESSILE CONSTANT SHAPE DROPLET
Akkus, Yigit; ÇETİN, BARBAROS; Dursunkaya, Zafer (2017-08-30)
In this study, a computational model for the evaporation from a sessile liquid droplet fed from the center to keep the diameter of the droplet constant is presented. The continuity, momentum and energy equations are solved with temperature dependent thenno-physical properties using COMSOL Multi-physics. At the surface of the droplet, convective heat and evaporative mass fluxes are assigned. Since the flow field is affected by evaporative flux, an iterative scheme is built and the computation is automated us...
A continuum model for decoherence in 1D transport
Şenozan, Selma; Turgut, Sadi; Department of Physics (2005)
In this thesis we study the conductance of a one dimensional conductor in the presence of dephasing. Dephasing effects are modelled after generalizing Büttiker̕s dephasing model (Phys. Rev. B 33, 3020 (1986)) to a continuous one. Infinitely many electron reservoirs are coupled to the conductor as phase breakers and the method for calculating the conductance is presented. We investigate how this continuum decoherence effect the conductance of a wire, with single and double rectangular barriers.
