Re: Elementary Inductance.





  Jimmy -

  Much of this information you are looking for is given in my three books.
There are also many graphs that help you select the proper parameters for
different size coils. You don't even have to do the calculations if you use
the JHCTES computer program. It calculates inductance, coupling, coil self
capacitance, operating frequencies, and 30 other tesla coil parameters.
There is no other program like it presently available.

  You can also get the information free from the Tesla List but not the
graphs, JHCTES program, test circuits, etc.

  I am sending you a flyer by separate email.
