Hi Michael, I have read nearly all of Teslas endless writings specially on his opinion on hertzian waves. In short, there were, are and will never exist...
most of all the power transferred in that test was due capacitive coupling. btw, something is strange, my messages get posted something like 3-4 days later!...
The Tesla Academy Summer 2013 Budget spreadsheet has been created. It will be sent to anyone who asks. After some consultation, it was decided that this is...
In relation to the field emitted and received from a capacitive topload, there is one peculiar thing Im not sure about. Common T.C.s have around 20pF...
Resonance. This is reactive power and not dissipated power (The few KW is dissipated power). SB ROM between 20 and 100 times the actual dissipated power,...
Right. Should look like a pure sine wave up to the point breakout arcs distort the heck out of it and start to dump energy in that rather spectacular way. ...
Exactly. The secondary's inductance and the combination of the secondary and topload capacitance are ringing at their natural resonant frequency. The maximum...
I understand that the cause is that secondary LC is resonant to the primary. Its just that I find it amazing how Tesla coils do what they do. Just saying:...
Hi Levi, You're correct! When the secondary is oscillating, energy is actually cycling back and forth between the magnetic field (the inductance) and the...
Levi, in all resonant circuits, the voltage and current are almost completely out of phase. This means when the voltage is high the current is low. This is...
Thanks Bert! Indeed even a VDG reaches very high power levels in a discharge but of course only in a very minute duration, its all about the stored energy of...
Hello Bert. Good! Alright, I know this sounds like nut and hair splitting but this path seems so far, the only way to try and illustrate my point. so lets...
Hi Levi, ... Yes. ... Yes, assuming no losses. In reality, each successive peak is a bit less than the previous one due to losses (mainly secondary coil...
Hi Bert, this is strange, my posts on this group takes days to show up on teh group? but my last post that I have written on 3-4th of May is yet to be show...
Hi Levi, That is odd - usually posts show up within minutes of sending unless you are being moderated by the list administrator(s). Sometimes Yahoo Groups does...
I have noticed odd posts appear at random in my inbox, such as post arrive from 2 or 3 days ago after more recent ones do. Its done that for some time. While...
Hi, oh well, seems like this time my post really got lost in the Aether. its been 5 days and its not shown ye, so anyway lets see if this message now is...
I posted it several hours ago and its not seen on yahoo group either, here is it more time: Everything discussed this far, I understood Ok, Everything we...
Nothing shows up after 2 more tries so Im going to try and cut it up into several parts : (although there will be a risk of misunderstandings now..) Part...
Hi Levi, You're struggling with the following concepts: - Energy - Average Power - Peak (or instantaneous) Power In a Tesla Coil, energy is slowly accumulated...
I apologize for the posting problems. This group was set to moderate new users. I'm trying unmoderated to see if we can keep the interference to a minimum, yet...
Thank you a lot for the reply Bert, Although I am aware of energy, peak power and instantaneous power, as being different properties of the same small...
Hi Levi, ... OK! ... No. Consider a lossless LC circuit. If you inject 10 joules of energy into the circuit, it will continue to oscillate indefinitely. The...
I think it may help to state also in charge terms and capacitance values in this way... for example, if you have a tank cap of 10nF and hold 0.5J of energy...
When considering and combin ing the ideas of Tom Beardon and Larry Spring, we can conclude that your statement is correct -- there are no Herzian transverse...
Please note that no physics argument can be convincing if “the reason is mathematical”. Math, or more specifically “a math” is the tool that is used to...
