RE: primary angle



Original poster: "Qndre Qndre" <qndre_encrypt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hey Daniel,

yes it does greatly affect the coupling. If you are using 0 degrees (flat spiral) you will have a very low coupling coefficient, which is the prefered configuration for coils. If you are using 90 degrees (cylindrial spiral) you will have a very high coupling coefficient which might result in racing arcs.

Why doesn't every coil have a flat spiral if lose coupling is the configuration to be preferred?

Regards, Q.

Hi, does the angle of the primary affect the coupling? I have my primary set at 40 degrees to horizontal becuase it was the easyest to wind that way. What should I do if angle is to high? thanks for input
