Abstract: The results of a parametric study are presented which was conducted in the framework of the High Brilliance Neutron Source Project (HBS), in order to optimise the target dimensions for a Compact Accelerator driven Neutron Source (CANS). A thin disc shaped target cooled by a water jet was taken as design reference, which was recently published in the Conceptual Design Report for NOVA ERA (Neutrons Obtained Via Accelerator for Education and Research Activities).For a given target thickness, limited by the ion range in the target material, the cooling fluid pressure and the heat deposition of the ion beam, an optimal diameter of the target disc can be found, for which the occurring stresses are minimised. With the accelerator parameters of NOVA ERA (10 MeV protons with an average power of 400 W on the Target) and with the results of the parametric study, it was possible to design a target, where the occurring stresses are by a factor 3 smaller than the yield strength of the employed beryllium alloy, S-65C VHP.
