The mathematical model that will be used for the final
tuning of the High Intensity Proton Injector (IPHI) has
been experimentally tested for several configurations of
the aluminum IPHI cold model. The formalism takes in
account the electromagnetic specific characteristics of the
IPHI RFQ: this line is segmented, inhomogeneous, and
the slug tuners are highly irregularly spaced. For all the
tested configurations, the tuning procedure with plungers
requires only a small number of iterations, and
convergence is demonstrated on every electromagnetic
parameters to be tuned.
