The finish of radio frequency (RF) surfaces inside superconducting RF (SRF) cavities is of utmost importance as it dictates ultimate cavity performance. After the cavity surfaces have undergone chemical etching, polishing, and hydrogen degassing, the final step in surface preparation involves cleaning using a high pressure rinse (HPR) with ultra-high purity water (UPW) to remove any residue from the previous chemical processes. The complex surface geometry of cavities poses difficulties in achieving effective and thorough HPR cleaning. This study introduces a versatile simulation tool created in MATLAB, which has the potential to be applied to various SRF cavities. The detail of the algorithm used and nozzle and motion setup will be described using an FRIB 0.53 half wave resonator (HWR) cavity as an example.
