It should be noted that it is possible to obtain couplings (K factors) over
1.00 with this program. This can happen with some faulty TC designs and is
the problem with programs that have a lot of variables. To avoid these
problems the TC designer should examine all outputs after he clicks on
"Calculate" or "Recalculate" to be certain all of the TC parameters are
resonable variables and properly coordinated. I have limited some of the
inputs to prevent faulty designs but I do not want to hamper the versatility
of the program with too many restrictions.

If you have any questions or comments regarding the program I would be
interested in hearing from you.

All -

The JHCTES Ver 3.2 has been updated to Ver 3.3 with mutual inductance and
coupling. Click on

Don't forget to check the Primary to Secondary Clearance which should not be
negative for a correct coupling.

If you have tested your coil I would be interested in how the test coupling
compares with the Ver 3.3 coupling.
