Is this a Wheeler coil?
Original poster: StephenTetorka@xxxxxx
Thank you to all the helpful persons out here in "Teslaland" who have
provided their valuable time to assist me.
>From all that help....it seems like my spiral needs are somewhat
different in geometry that what I had originally expected.
Picture if you will a flat piece of sheet metal in the X-Y
plane...say a square of 48 inches x 48 inches.
Into that sheet I need to make CUT a spiral...it can be any 'shape'
or geometry...but it needs to have an inductance between 3 to 10
microhenries...approx.
It would be well if the adjoining turns are 'very close'
together...say 1/16 inch spacing between turns.
Lastly...and if needed...turns may be at different
'elevations'...such as to make a 'truncated cone" spiral extending in
to the Z - axis.
Kinda wonder if Wheeler had this in mind when he developed his equation....
Any/all help is Greatly Appreciated.
Happy Holiday Season to All.
