RE: [TCML] Quench time



The amplitude of what decreases, Vsec?  From a purely conservation-of-energy perspective with no losses, I don't see that frequency or coupling changes alone would result in a lower Vsec.

As transfer time is diminished with higher couping, I would expect gap losses to diminish, resulting in an amplitude *increase*.

I would agree that higher frequencies may result in higher resistive losses due to skin-effect & proximity-effects in conductors.  Higher frequencies also are associated with low inductance primaries, small toploads, small Cpri's, and other things that generally are associated with sub-optimal performance.
