By using 1 MA, 100 kV LTD cavities, the peak load current is optimized for a total of N cavities between 500 and 1200. The simulation results suggest that, with the same number of cavities, the peak current changes obviously with the types of combinations, and the maximum change can be as large as 1.2 MA. The results also show that, for the cases considered, the optimized peak current as a function of the total number of cavities agrees with the exponential associate, and the peak current for one level LTD cannot be enhanced infinitely. Furthermore, it is found that, to obtain a 20 MA peak load current, at least 1029 LTD cavities （49 in series and 21 in parallel connection） are needed. Finally, the typical parameters of the optimized design are compared to those of the existing Z accelerator.展开更多
