Re: Tesla Coil Operation - was "Harmonics"
I concur.
There are many expressions of entropic functions
from Kolmogorov to Shannon's Information Entropy to
Clausius and classical thermodynamic systems.
Magnetic circuits certainly can involve complexity expressions
that map to entropic distributions.
It may be such (I am not sure) that a more complete model
of a spark gap would involve fractal and chaotic behavior
thus representing more of natures complexity.
