new in HFSS - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in late 2012 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2012, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts. Here is the full original RF Cafe Forums on Archive.org

I'm doing a simulation of the interaction between RF waves and the particles in the high power amplification devices (such as Magnetron). The Magnetron is constructed of two concentric cylinders with the output cylinder has corrugations in its inner wall ( these corrugations some times is called Vanes).

Now, the questions are:

1-How can i draw these corrugations in the inner wall of a 3D cylinder ? i could draw a two concentric cylinders but i couldn't make corrugations in the inner wall of the outer cylinder. These corrugations are actually made by putting thin metal plates has the same height of the cylinder and distributed around the circle at equal angles. But how can i make this ?

2- How can i make the input of the cavity at the bottom of those two cylinders? , i cant make excitation !
