Re: OLTC primary loss measurement

Few Further thoughts on last post re this:

1) The only thermal resistance you need to know is heatsink to air if you
measure heatsink temp. This is normally published for each heatsink type

2) You can reduce time to reach equilibrium if you preheat the heatsink with
a hairdrier. (you need to have a feeling for this as to how much to preheat
it)

3) Smaller heatsinking would much reduce time to reach equilibrium if that
is a problem.

Good Luck
