Where am I going askew ?



Original poster: "Christopher \"CajunCoiler\" Mayeux" <cajuncoiler-at-cox-dot-net> 

Ok, I'm getting widely varying results between calculation
methods, and so I'm hoping I can list what I have to work
with, and someone here can tell me what would be right for
the primary and secondary coil paramiters.

To work with...

  * 15kv/30ma NST (with "terry filter")
    http://msbdatasystems-dot-com/cajuncoiler/Images/nst.jpg
    http://msbdatasystems-dot-com/cajuncoiler/Images/filter0001.jpg
  * .00536 uF MMC (1 string of .15uF x 28)
    http://msbdatasystems-dot-com/cajuncoiler/Images/mmc_big.jpg
  * 5-gap RQ style spark gap
    http://msbdatasystems-dot-com/cajuncoiler/Images/newrqgap001.jpg
  * 8 primary supports for .25" tubing with .25" spacing
  * choice of 4.5" or 3.5" PVC for secondary
  * dryer-duct toroid 20"x4"

Query...

* primary coil should have at least ____ turns with
   a ____ inside diameter.

* secondary coil should use the ____" pvc, and have
   ____ turns of AWG____ magnet wire.
