Abstract The MYRRHA (Multi-purpose hYbrid Research Reactor for High-tech Applications) Project is a planned accelerator driven system (ADS) for the transmutation of long-living radioactive waste. A critical passage for the beam quality and especially for the emittance is the injector. Therefore, a new injector design with improved beam dynamics has been developed, featuring low emittance growth rates while using only room temperature structures. The previous design consisted of a 4-Rod RFQ, 7 room temperature and 5 superconducting CH-DTL cavities and 2 rebuncher cavities, whereas the superconducting cavities in the new design have been replaced by 8 room temperature CHs and an additional rebuncher. The main challenge during the development is achieving the required reliability to reduce the thermal stress inside the planned reactor. Therefore, simulations with CST MICROWAVE STUDIO have been made to compare several cooling concepts and to optimize the cavities, especially in terms of the shunt impedance.
