Which laws are those? In fact you can get k pretty close to 1 if the 
coils have very similar geometries. If there are few losses, even if 
k is quite low, transfer efficiency is demonstrably high. I have 
measured an energy transfer efficiency approaching 90% between two 
coupled air-cored coils with k set to about 0.15.

I confess I don't understand any of this. M is a function of k and 
the inductances of the two coils. I don't see where capacitance comes 
into it.

The reactive power in the output circuit is the result of an 
accumulation of energy in that circuit isn't it?

But there is a fundamental difference between two mutually coupled 
inductances and two mutually coupled tuned circuits. A tuned circuit 
is not called a "tank" for nothing. The old sum of energy out = 
energy in minus losses must apply. Energy accumulation in a tank 
takes place *over time*, something which voltmeters and ammeters do 
not take into account with their sluggish responses. You can of 
course see such acccumulation occurring on an oscilloscope since that 
instrument does use a *timebase*.

Fundamentally, the only difference between air-cored and material-
cored coils if the material is not driven close to saturation is the 
higher permeability (hence L of the coils, hence M between them). Is 
there something here that I'm missing?
