RE: [TCML] Oil insulated coils

["Colin Dancer" <colind@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've built a bipolar magnifier where the driver coil had a strap wound
primary over a tight PE spacer/insulator over the secondary coil.  Prior to
immersion in oil it suffered very bad corona, even with field shaping rings
at the end.  Once it went into its oil tank it ran with no problems at all,
despite the very high coupling.

Bart, all,
 
Has anyone on this list built a TC and put the coil  partly under oil or
another dielectric fluid to see how  much coupling could be tolerated?  It
would  be an interesting experiment.
