Abstract Two re-buncher cavities are necessary for the LIPAc (Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator), presently being built at Rokkasho (Japan). They are placed at the Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) line to longitudinally focus a 5 MeV CW deuteron beam. Due to the strong space charge and the compactness of the beamline, the cavity has several space restrictions. In order to minimize the power loss, an IH-type cavity with 5 gaps was selected. It provides an effective voltage of 350 kV at 175 MHz with a power loss of 6.6 kW. First, electromagnetic calculations have been done with HFSS to compute the resonant frequency, the S-parameters, the electric and magnetic field maps, the power losses and the proper geometry for a magnetic input coupler and a pickup probe. Then, a mechanical Ansys model has been used to analyze the stresses and deformations due to vacuum, the cooling circuit and the temperature distribution, taking into account the power losses imported from the electromagnetic model. Finally, the fluid dynamics in the cooling circuits of the stems has been carefully studied.
