Re: Tesla's CS Coil Data from ScanTesla and all....

Hi Terry,

I think Tesla knew what he was doing, and he has mentioned on several occasions the need for a properly tuned system, indeed I find it hard to believe that he would have been able to generate 100ft streamers by simply throwing more power at it.

"The adjustments are such that the reservoir is filled full and bursts at each alternation just at the moment when the electrical pressure reaches the maximum. The discharge escapes with a deafening noise, striking an unconnected coil twenty-two feet away, and creating such a commotion of electricity in the earth that sparks an inch long can be drawn from a water main at a distance of three hundred feet from the laboratory.

I have produced electrical discharges the actual path of which, from end to end, was probably more than one hundred feet long" - Probelm of Incresing human energy Tesla.

Assuming 100ft = 40 Meters and dialectric breakdown of air is 3 x 10^6 V/m then that would mean a potential of 13.3MV.

Is he making this up, or are we missing something important here?

Thanks

Chris Rutherford

Hi All,

I ran the parameters for Tesla's Colorado Springs coil through MandK3.1 and E-Tesla6 to get better numbers to feed ScanTesla-TRSSTC...

All the horrific details are here:

http://drsstc.com/~terrell/modeling/Teslas-CScoil.ZIP

Losses went way down and the capacitance of his secondary coil went way up... But overall, things did not change much. The heavy ring in the secondary coil went away now. The secondary coil seems to be able to isolate itself from the primary and tertiary tuned circuits to ring-on for a long time. But I doubt if Tesla coil was tuned as well as the computer can tune things ;-))

Tesla coil probably never made over 300,000 Volts!!! The higher BPS and short burst time along with 50+++kW input pushed the streamers out even though the efficiency was only about 11.6%!! Talk about throwing a few tens of kilowatts at it to make up for that ;-)) Hard to say where the LERT was... Primary inductance is hard to say for one turn... I bet a lot of loss went into the Earth under the primary/secondary coil... The very short burst time would have loved high BPS rates...

I bet he pushed the BPS rate "way up" to overcome the coils energy losses... That would have been his perfect path for longer streamer given what he had going there... He had high losses but lots of power and a short powerful burst... His streamer would have increased in length as a direct function of BPS until something like the power plant blew up :o)) I am thinking his longer streamer must have been help by short LERT cases...

Hard to say how "true" any of this is... But it represents "quadrillions" of calculations from the best programs out there this night...
