RE: Arc length vs pwr
Input power: 2.4kw
Arc length: 54" once every couple seconds
Break rate:540 ( 3 parallel break points)
Output frequency:200kHz approximate with 5X23 toroid
Primary tank capacitance: .06uF
Primary voltage: 8kV approximate
Secondary inductance: will let you know when I measure it.

|Hi All,
|
|I am trying to compile a list of data points regarding the
|relationship of output arc length to coil input power. I
|would like to get data on as many different coil systems as
|possible. If you have made reasonably accurate measurements
|of these parameters on your coil, I would very much appreciate
|your input. I am trying to come up with a physics model of
|the enigmatic tesla coil arc, and need a varied selection of
|empirical data points to help verify the model. After compiling
|the data, I will publish the results here.
|
|The most important parameters for this study are:
|Total AC input power (watts)
|Output arc length (inches)
|Gap repetition rate (pulses per second)
|
|Other useful data to include:
|Output frequency (Hz)
|Primary capacitance (uF)
|Primary voltage (V)
|Secondary (or tertiary) inductance (mH)
|
|Thanks in advance, Greg
