Results of computer simulations of the misalignments in the 180{degree}-bend angle second-stage bunch compressor for the NLC are described. The aim of this study was to evaluate alignment and production error tolerances. Three versions of the second stage, differing in their minimum obtainable bunch length (44 {mu}, 60 {mu}, and 86 {mu}) were studied. Simulations included orbit correction produced by errors and misalignments of the compressor elements. The orbit correction itself was done within some error margins. The effects of misalignments on transverse emittance growth were found. Recommendations for alleviating alignment tolerances are discussed. 5 refs., 6 figs., 1 tab.
