RE: Streamer breakout voltages for toroids and spheres
Gavin and list theoreticians,
Of course it complicated, what did you expect ?
Check out this book:
High Voltage Engineering Fundamentals,
E. Kuffel Engr Dean U of Manitoba, W.S. Zaengl EE Prof Zurich
ISBN 0-08-024212-X (soft cover)
ISBN 0-08-024213-8 (hard cover)
I think it may have some answers for you.
This is a college text with theory, graphs, formulas AND
nice HV apparatus Pictures, a must for any serious HV'er !
Regards, Dale

Original Poster: "Gavin Dingley" <gavin.dingley-at-astra.ukf-dot-net>
Hi all,
does anyone have a mathematical formula for calculating the voltage
required for steamer breakout for toroids and sphere isotropic top
capacities (i.e. a voltage for a given sphere diameter/toroid
dimensions.
I was thinking along the lines of calculating the charge density and
dividing it by the permitivity of free space, then I got stuck!
Thanks in advance for your help,
Regards, Gavin, U.K.
